Wire Wrapped Magenta Pink and Gold Dichroic Glass Pendant with Black Leaves

This wire-wrapped dichroic glass pendant in bright metallic magenta pink and gold has hand-drawn black leaves on it. This vibrant pendant will add pop to the attire of the individual lucky enough to receive it.

It is a medium-sized pendant that is about 1 3/8" long (35 mm) and just over 7/8" wide (23 mm). Square gold-filled wire (22 gauge) was used to wrap the handmade glass cabochon.

This is a one-of-a-kind pendant that I could never reproduce exactly will be shipped securely in a gift box, ready to be worn by the lucky recipient.

This pendant will look gorgeous on a chain from the recipient's collection. You can also request a free gold-plated chain at checkout if you tell me the length you want, or ask me to relist this item reserved for you as a necklace with a gold-filled chain (which I will give to you at my cost with the purchase of the pendant).

I made the fused glass cabochon in my kiln. I started with a stack of cut glass (with the dichroic-coated piece on top) and fully fused the glass pieces together. The pattern was drawn on the top with a diamond-coated burr that removed the dichroic coating. The resulting cab was then shaped on a grinder and fire-polished in the kiln. This piece was properly annealed after each cycle for maximum strength and durability. I then ground a groove all the way around the cab for the wire to sit securely in and to frame the glass piece with wire.

Spiral Beaded Bracelet in Green and Blue with Yellow, Purple, and Pink Plus a Peyote Toggle Clasp

This spiral-stitched beaded bracelet was made from three kinds of green glass seed beads and six colors of faceted fire-polished oval beads. A peyote-stitched toggle clasp adds beauty plus functionality, as this bracelet can be put on with one hand. I test all of my handmade toggle clasps to make sure they are secure by shaking the piece vigorously many, many times.

This bracelet that reminds me of a lush meadow on a Spring or Summer day with a cloudless, intense blue sky. The facets to the beads catch and reflect the light nicely to add interest.

Just about 7" (18 cm) long, this bracelet would best accommodate smaller wrists, in the 6.0 to 6.75" range (it fits comfortably on my 6.0" wrist). This bracelet was assembled with care to give it durability.

This one-of-a-kind attractive bracelet is very pleasant to wear (you will hardly know it is there, except for the compliments from others that will draw your attention back to the bracelet). It will arrive in a gift box ready to be enjoyed.

Seed Bead Flower Earrings in Pink and Amber with Swarovski Crystal Rivolis and Sterling Silver Findings

These lovely seed bead flower earrings have rose pink 8 mm Swarovski crystal rivoli centers surrounded by petals made from coordinating pink lined amber seed beads in two sizes. Between the petals are small pink Swarovski crystal round beads. The flowers are shown on Sterling silver fishhook earring findings (but can be easily changed to other findings, such as post ones if you prefer; convo me or request them at checkout). The pictures just do not capture the full beauty of these sweet earrings.

These earrings are slightly over 3/4" wide (20 mm) and are just under an inch long (25 mm), measured from the bottom of the earring finding. This is an original design that I worked out.

These adorable, one-of-a-kind earrings will go with casual or formal wear, including outfits with flowers. They would also make an awesome gift (flowers that won't wilt) to yourself or someone you adore. I have only made one pair in this color combination; if you like the style but don't see a pair in the colors you would like, you are welcome to ask me to make you a custom pair.

Gold Dragonflies Purple, Green, and Gold Dichroic Glass Wire Wrapped Pendant

This medium-sized pendant is about 1 1/2" long (38 mm) and is just over 1" (28 mm) wide at its widest point. It is wrapped with 22 gauge gold-filled square wire.

This beautiful pendant will be sent in a nice gift box to the lucky recipient. This one-of-a-kind piece will likely attract many admirers and will be loved by most any woman, especially one that likes dragonflies and purple.

I made this pendant from three pieces of glass that I fully fused together in my kiln. I shaped the resulting crude cab by hand on a grinder with multiple diamond grits and fire-polished it in the kiln to regenerate its clear sides. This cab was properly annealed to maximize its strength and durability. Finally, I ground a groove all the way around the cab for the wire wrapping to sit securely in.

This beautiful pendant will look lovely on a chain from the recipient's collection (you can also request a free gold-plated chain at checkout if you tell me the length you want, or ask me to relist this item reserved for you as a necklace with a gold-filled chain, which I will give to you at my cost with the purchase of the pendant--convo me to discuss details).

Turquoise, Silver, and Black Swirls Polymer Clay Earrings, Sterling Silver Wire Wrapped

These turquoise, silver, and black polymer clay earrings have a fun pattern of textured swirls and are set off nicely with Sterling silver wire-wrapping. Their handmade cabochons were hand-painted with pearl paints that give them a nice shimmer and somewhat of an antiqued appearance.

The cabs are wrapped with Sterling silver square wire and the fishhook ear wires are also Sterling silver (if you would prefer stud earring findings or a couple of added jumprings to lengthen the earrings and add movement, just add your request at checkout and I will make the changes before shipping the earrings).

The earrings hang about 1 1/4" (30 mm) below the earring finding and are just over 3/4" (20 mm) wide at their widest point.

I made the one-of-a-kind polymer cabs using a rubber stamp designed by Kimberly Crick. The cabs were sanded on the sides and bottom with multiple grit papers, then a groove was carved around their edges for the wrapping wires to sit in. They were hand-painted with pearlescent acrylic paints and are protected with a thick coat of an acrylic sealant.

These handmade, unique earrings will arrive in a nice ribboned gift box, ready to give to someone special or keep as a treat for yourself. Polymer clay cabs make very nice earrings that are comfortable to wear, as they are strong but light. This color combination is stunning, and should be loved by just about any woman.

Seafoam Green Seed Bead Bracelet with Swarovski Crystal and a Large Glass Flower Clasp

This lovely bracelet has seafoam green lined triangular glass seed beads that are woven in a modification of Ecuadorian weave that I worked out to make a flower-like pattern. Each flower has a Swarovski crystal round bead in the center. The closure consists of a seed bead loop and a large glass flower bead that coordinates with the crystal beads. This is one bracelet that you will actually want the clasp to show.

This bracelet is about 7.5" (~19 cm) in length and 3/4" wide (19 mm) and will best fit wrists from about 6.5" to just over 7.0" (my wrist is 6.0" and this bracelet fits it a little more loosely than some people like, but it is acceptable as I cannot slip it over my hand).

The soothing color and the seed beads that seem to glow in the light make this a piece that is very pleasant to wear. I will send this one-of-a-kind bracelet in a gift box, all ready to work its charm on the person that receives it.
