Surprises

Bérilune from Terres de Brumes sent me this lovely keyring plus some beads.

I sent her the copper fibula and some beads ( these you can see on her blog).

Bérilune de Terres de Brumes m'a envoyé ce charmant porte-clé et des perles.

Je lui ai envoyé une fibule et quelques perles ( allez faire un tour sur son blog pour les voir!).

I also received a surprise from Lindsay and an award from Andee but I'll write a post about these tomorrow ...

Oh and the gentlemen are happy with what I made for their ladies ... now I hope the latters will be happy too!

Commissions

So ... Valentine's day is next month and I'm working on some commissions.

Some colleagues asked me ( when they heard I make jewelry ) to make gifts for their wives.

The ring on the top left is similar to one I made last year. It's pmc.

The ring and pendant are made of silver spoons and pmc ( the spoons were given by one of the colleagues "do whatever wearable you want with them" ...).

I will show them this week ... and yes of course they couldn't give me the ring sizes... so might have to alter them a bit after Valentine's day ... hmmm ... men!
