Wire Woven Earrings

Simply wire woven hoops earrings. This is my first hoops.

Back to Wire Weaving and Adjustable Ring

This is sort of like a challenge for me. A customer requested for a cab wrap ala Eni's Square Cab Ring but it has to be adjustable ala Louise's woven wave bypass ring. Was not sure whether I can do it or not but I gave it a try last night and Yippi! its possible. As can be seen here, the square bead is wrapped according to Eni's Square Cab Ring method while the shank is according to Louise's adjustable woven ring method. It was not easy but it is possible. Planning to make another one again.

Want to Know How to Catch Crabs?

We used to do this a lot before the boys came along. I think it's earlier than that....about 10 years ago. Hubby and I love to go out fishing, prawn fishing or catch crabs. Then we got busy, then came the first baby then the second and now they are little boys and we are even busier. And of course, in between that I got addicted to wire jewelry....hehehe... Anyway, today hubby decided to go catch crabs and asked me to tag along. So, we did just that (took the older boy along - William). First we went to purchase six crab traps and a stingray head for baiting. Here are pictures showing the whole process....

Weaving my Heart Away

Am at weaving again and enjoying it very much. Someone saw the adjustable woven ring I made as gift for my friend the other day and requested for similar ones and here they are. Identical twins ha? :) Not reallylah! but they are woven with gold filled wire. The best thing about adjustable rings are you don't have to worry about the perfect fit. One size fits all! Easy on me and easy for the wearer.

Pearls are still the Favorite

Good old pearls. They are still the favorite among my customers. Here are few pairs wire wrap earrings completed today. Two pairs of simple stud earrings and a pair of angelic pearl earrings.

Playing with Copper Wire

I have been wanting to play with copper wire for a long while and finally did just that last night, of all time when I was busiest. Maybe it was stress due to the unfinished work and presentation (this morning). Anyway, I managed to steal some time off "work" to hammer two copper wires and twisted them into this two almost identical pieces. Not sure what to do with them but it was fun to do all the hammering..:) Maybe I should wire wrap the loops with some small beads. I can "see" green will go very well with copper! What think you? Also stole a little bit of time to wire wrap (simple) this donut jade pendant with gold filled wire - a special request.
