I just realized this is my 250th blog post! Holy cow, that's a lot of chatter about my life!
To celebrate, please enjoy some new pendants I've just made and listed to my Etsy Shop.
rough bezel settings for several pendants and a tiny pair of earrings. 
I soldered them yesterday, today I trim the excess, file and shape and add the bails. 
More photos tomorrow!
I've been dying to make these for some time now and finally have them finished and up for sale on my website. Vintage sketches of seashells have been layered over old French postcards to create these adorable little images! 
Introductory price of $8 includes silvertoned ball chain in either choker length (13") mid length (17") or long (22")
So cute and summery, I wore one out to the stores today and got about a dozen compliments!
Finally managed to get photos of my little seashell barrettes taken. These are going up for sale in my Etsy shop for just $4 a pair!

Well, I finally have the first batch of pendants finished and up for sale on my website.
All one of a kind and handmade by me using genuine sea glass, beachcombed pottery shards and seashells.

I have another batch of pendants ready to go later in the week and also some handmade sea glass bangle bracelets and earrings coming next week!
I finally got a good chunk of work done today- 14 pendants in various stages of soldering. 
I picked 6 to focus on finishing so I could get a batch into the tumbler to polish. I filed and sanded them. I attached those in need of attaching. I made 6 bails for them. 
I got out my third hand. (seriously, that's what they call this thing)
I lined up pendant number 1 and its bail. 
I lit the torch. Spit, spit, sputter, sputter. Ran out of gas.
And it's 5:00pm on Friday night. I have to get dinner started. Guess I'm off to the Depot bright and early tomorrow!
