Whilst I have been "away", I have not been idle, I can tell you! Doesn't seem to be a great deal to see for my efforts, but somehow the time has just disappeared...
A little while ago I found a channel on the tv that sells semi precious gems and as you do, I ended up buying one or two items!! My wonderful OH asked me what I would like for my birthday and I had seen this strand (38cms long) of multi coloured sapphires. They just fell into the basket and ended up being popped through our letter box. Oooooohhhhh.... they are so sparklingly wonderful, even if they are very small stones.
The next month was our wedding anniversary, a rather special one (45 years!!) and again he asked me what I would like. Well,... there was these gorgeous strands of lilac amethysts ... now what can you do??? Also on sale that day were some very, very nice rainbow flourite and as I could see that some of those stones would go, oh so well with the amethysts, they came along too.
What I am showing below are the pieces I made from the anniversary presents...
It feels absolutely wonderful on and I hope you like the look of it too...
There are quite a lot of stones left and I am getting designs lined up to make with them. I do sell my work too, just not the ones above .. :) , so I will post the ones for sale when they are completed.
Thank you for stopping by.
