Annoucement:

I'm having a baby and I'm preparing for my life as a new mommy! I will be discontinuing my line of ceramic pendants and components at this time. Soon, I will be closing my Etsy Shop and this blog as well. However, I will continue to make beaded jewelry designs! I must continue to create and jewelry is my passion.

"The Birth of Venus" ABS challenge


My entry for the current ABS Challenge. A necklace inspired by "The Birth of Venus" painting by Botticelli. The centerpiece is my own handmade ceramic leaf pendant accented with Hill Tribe silver nuggets and a fresh-water pearl. The pendant is hand-knotted onto Irish waxed linen cord along with a Hill Tribe silver shell focal bead, fresh-water pearls and Peruvian Opals. Finished off with an XL sterling silver lobster claw clasp and a few more silver nuggets and a pearl.

I decided to make this piece available in my Etsy Shop. Now, I don't usually sell finished jewelry and I don't plan on making a habit of it. I like to focus my attention on making the jewelry components, not the jewelry! LOL! But I would like to offer a few pieces now and then when I feel I have made something that is representative of my personal style. I hope you like it! Thank you!
