Work In Progress Wednesday, just a quick one!

Hey all! Still crazy busy trying to build up my inventory for upcoming events. These are some of the pendants and earrings I'm working on today...

Hopefully things will settle down a bit soon and I'll have much more time to post regularly again, I miss my blog!

More things I'm working on today...

I wish I had the time to blog about life in general but I've been so busy with work that this is the best I can offer for now (not that I'm complaining mind you, I am SO happy to have orders coming in!)

I promise I do have some lovely pyrex to show off, craft stuff I'm making for my house and even a few new recipes to share, but for now I have to get back to work and try to finish these pendants so I can move on to the next batch!

FYI the shell and sea glass pendants at the top are all sold, the bracelet focals in the middle are sold/mine (mine is the round one, I'm having Mickey at Nicholas Landon Jewelry make me a leather and pearl bracelet for it, yay!)

The bottom section of pendants will all be going over to Etsy once they're set and polished. Happy Monday, everyone!

Scarborough Seashells and Nicholas Landon Jewelry Come Together!

As promised, a first look at my newest collaboration! Last December, Mickey Johnson (the super talented designer/owner of Nicholas Landon Jewelry) and I began talks of coming together with our jewelry. Using my bezel set pendants and her intricate and unique style of leather braiding, wrapping and beading we've come together on a new line of necklaces that are now for sale on her website!

These first pieces are available now for immediate purchase as she continues to work tirelessly to complete even more one of kind pieces with the latest pendants I sent to her. Her next round of necklaces will include my starfish

and seahorse pendants

-for which she's using a new technique- even I can't wait to see what they'll look like!

Stay tuned for even more details and photos as our collaboration (hopefully) continues to grow!

I HEART Sea Glass and other lovelies

Newly listed to my shop:

Sterling Silver Heart Pendant with English Multi Sea Glass Piece

Kelly Green Sea Glass Starfish Pendant

And Made to Order Seahorse Pendants... these take a LOT of time and silver, so I decided instead of premaking, I'll make them to order using whatever color glass the buyer chooses like I do with my custom pendants

And tomorrow, I'll finally be announcing what my newest collaboration is... it's amazing! Stay tuned!

Happy New Year, Works in Progress, Where the heck have I been? And a Giveaway!

Hello everybody! Sorry I've been AWOL for so long- autumn was just insane with, well, life! Birthdays, holidays, craft shows, custom work, new clients, etc and something had to give, so I gave myself a break from blogging.

We've celebrated Thanksgiving

Watched sunrises

And sunsets

We've done craft shows

We've celebrated Christmas and New Years

(looking for the pickle)

and also my 36th birthday (dinner at a Japanese steakhouse followed by a movie, with a pit stop to the photo booth in the lobby)- just to name a few!

Today I'm back to work making new pendants

And it just so happens that my Work in Progress Wednesday post is also my 300th blog post. So to celebrate that milestone (as well as all the others that I've passed in the last few months) I'm doing a giveaway. It's been a long time since I've sent one of my readers a piece of jewelry in a giveaway, so I thought now would be the perfect time!

If you'd like a chance to win one of my new bangles, read on! They are sterling silver, hand forged by me, featuring a sterling silver sand dollar or scallop shell charm.

They are a standard 8.5 inch (large) size but I do have a few that are smaller, so if you win and need the smaller size, just let me know!

Here's the lowdown on entering to win:

1. As usual, leave a comment telling me a recent milestone you've celebrated.
2. For 1 additional entry, tweet about this giveaway and report back here with a separate comment linking to said tweet.
3. For a 3rd chance to enter, blog about this giveaway or post it to your sidebar. Again, come back here and leave a separate comment linking to your blog.

That's up to 3 chances to win! Deadline for entry is Friday the 13th of January (eek!) at Midnight, ET

Work in progress Wednesday v2.0

Now that the kiddos are gone all day at school, I am trying to get back to work full-force. Today I'm fulfilling a pendant order for a local retail shop.

And the little seahorse in the bottom left corner is going to go to Etsy when he's finished.

More photos later this week!
