jewelllery making for 2010

malibusami86

Hi guys. since thursday night i have made 3 bracelets. i dont know how to insert the image so you can view it here, but this is the link to number 1 - http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac14/malibusami86/08072010282.jpg this was for my sister, inspired by her living room cushions, i know she loves the bright funky colours.

number 2 - http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac14/malibusami86/08072010279.jpg this was just a throw it together but i really like it. my friend claimed this one haha

number 3 - http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac14/malibusami86/10072010289.jpg as i liked number 2 so much i tried to keep similar colours. i then made earrings to go with it http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac14/malibusami86/10072010294.jpg. i made these for a friend who is moving to cyprus for 3 years. she loved them! http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac14/malibusami86/10072010295.jpg

i have a few more ideas. really want to do something with corals and browns and golds, but its so hard to pick the right shapes to go together. also, really want to do navy blue and cream with coral and another with pink. must order more beads haha

any feedback would be really appreciated

thanks

Hi, I have used Ang's Attic http://www.angs-attic.com/ for head pins. They are closed on ebay on a Monday to enable them to process their weekend orders. They are also on Facebook, http://www.facebook.com/pages/Angs-Attic/112455635440401?ref=ts Hope this is of use.

:j:j Oooh thanks Crafty JuJu. I have been thinking hard about this next challenge and had a couple of ideas :think: sooo....

...this weeks challenge is to create a piece of jewellery with a vintage or retro feel to it. It doesn't have to contain vintage or retro items, but it could if you wish, but should have a vintage/retro style.
