A Little of This, A Lot of That

A little blue topaz and sterling...




A little painting...



A lot 'o soldering...



And a lot of glitz!



It's been a good week! 
Hope yours was too!

New World...

... of Possibilities!
I have been having fun dreaming up things to solder this week :-).
A new mixed media pendant, featuring and old postage stamp,
a tiny crystal, and a flashing labradorite.

I love these old German glass cabachons that Juliana has collected.



And last, but not least, a new earring holder experiment
with an antique skeleton key taking flight on one side.

There are so many artistic projects that can be done with soldering...
...the possibilities are endless.
I'm looking forward to seeing the beautiful jewelry that
will be created in our two pendant classes coming up!
Happy weekend to you!

New This Week!

Our creative juices have been flowing this week in the studio
and we have some fun new jewelry to show you, yay!


Lovely new earrings by our guest artist VJ Supera, from Montana,
who has been visiting for 2 weeks. Created with very old
buttons from Burma and other tribal bits and bobs -
on sterling silver wire:





An intricate bracelet in warm autumn colors made by Brenda.
Stones include agate, tundra sapphire, tourmaline, and sun stone -
on sterling silver wire and a soft leather band:



Also from Brenda this week are these bright and playful earrings
composed of vintage glass beads and sterling silver:



Finally, Juliana has some wonderful, rustic, lucky bottle cap
pendants waiting just for you! Each is loveingly shaped
and soldered by hand: 




Our fall classes are starting to fill up,
so make sure to contact us soon to sign up if you
haven't already done so! Our studio hours this fall will be
10:00 - 4:00, Monday - Friday. We look forward to seeing you there soon!
