Pink, Purple and White Themed Wire Wrapped Bracelet

Today was not productive at all in terms of wire jewelry time but got few things done around the house. Took mom-in-law (MIL) to the recycle center to sell her aluminium cans as well as old newspapers, then off to the hairdresser to get her hair done for the wedding lunch. 

Spent about two hours on this bracelet this afternoon which was half done since few days ago then off to buy some wires, fish and birthday cake for MIL.  Yeah! Its her birthday today. We didn't celebrate as she was invited for her friend's birthday dinner tonight (yeah! they have the same birthday!), so we all stayed home and waited for her to come home........to cut the birthday cake of course....oh well! the boys were crazy about it.

Anyway, I started a new piece this evening - a Twice Around the World bracelet (custom order). It is halfway done and hopefully I can do more tomorrow. Have a nice weekend then!

Got Featured on Beading Gem's Journal

Just to let you all know that I have been featured again *:)* on Pearl's Beading Gem's Journal today. This time around is for the "Facing the Cobra" cuff completed recently. *thanks very much Pearl for featuring me, thank you for the encouragement* :D

Green, Red and Black

I wanted to post these three pieces early today but got caught with work and rushed to catch the flight to Sibu this afternoon. This town is located at the bank of the mighty Rajang River, about 35 minutes flight from Kuching. And why am I here? As usual its work related - I am attending a seminar on peat swamp forest and oil palm plantation development....boring? Me too....hehehe Oh well, read on below as its more on wire jewelry :D It's almost midnight now and I am still at the hotel lobby as WIFI only available here :( 

These two bracelets and earrings were remade for one of my customers. Just simple wire wrapping involved. Love the green stones but not sure what stones though. Looks like agate but may be green aventurine. This red and black themed bracelet is definitely dyed coral and black onyx with a rose quartz as the focal. At least this is not boring at all :D Good night all. Logging off to go to bed.

Cubic Zirconia Prong Ring

Latest prong ring with cubic zirconia. This is an experimental piece with gold filled wire. Since I only have a size 24ga wire, it is a bit too thin for the prong. A thicker wire would hold the stone tighter. 

Wire Wrapped Cuff

This one took a long time to make. Mostly on coiling 28g wire around each of the 10 pieces of 20ga wire. The outcome is ok though, so I am not complaining :)

Back to Black Again

Well, I am redoing my blog again....why? because it doesn't load properly with IE. Not that I know why but I figure maybe I have been playing around to much with the html. Anyway, I tried accessing with IE a while ago and it loaded. However, it gave me a two column view. Argh!! It is suppose to be 3 columns......but I am not going to do anything about it anymore. At least I am quite sure its not me, its IE. 

It loads properly with FireFox and Google Chrome. Two out of 3 is fine with me. I will stick with this one for now. Just too much time to change the template each time. 

Back to the template, its back to black again but still maintaining the 3 columns. Pictures look clearer with a black background, don't you think so? Love the bottom columns though. Can do a lot with them. 

Got to get some sleep now....its almost 3.00 am. Lots to do tomorrow.

Will post some new photos of completed pretties tomorrow :) Too tired now.
