Sherry 's Leaves necklace inspired me to do a bit of soldering...

That and this ... hmm..

First of all, thanks for visiting my blog and sorry for the very low posting rate.
I didn’t feel like blogging these past weeks...
But I haven’t forgotten what I promised. A few weeks ago Pam from the Blue Between ( I always liked this name ... ) gave me an award.

Here are the rules for this award:1. The winner can put the logo on their blog.2. Link to the person you received your award from.3. Nominate at least 7 other blogs.4. Put links of those blogs on yours.5. Leave a message on the blogs you've nominated.6. Write an acceptance speech in the style of the Academy Awards, thanking every body's mother, father, sister, brother, aunties and uncles and the kitchen staff at your favorite restaurant!

So here are the blogs I want to give an award to:

Seth from the Altered Page ( make sure to follow his Pulse serie if you want to know a bit more about the artistic path of people from around the internet!)

Lucie from Bijoux éclectiques.

Robin's Nest.

Sherry from Stillwaters Studio.

Stephanie from Rodrigvitz Style.

Lucinda from Belvedere Beads.

Bérilune from Terres des Brumes.



But this doesn’t mean that you should ignore the links on the right because all these blogs and sites rock !



Now, some new jewelry I managed to make over the past few days ( nothing very exciting but one has to get rid of dust collecting beads ...).


Polymer clay and copper:




Dust collecting beads ( mainly plastic):

Wood, resin and a polymer clay pendant:

I leave you with a happy picture ... see you soon and thanks for stopping by !

This and that..

July was a busy month in the real world .. and then I went on holidays . I was back on friday , only to start something like the flu on sunday ... still coughing, aching ... but it's getting better.

A package was waiting for me this friday ... A few weeks ago I agreed to have an ATC's swap with two lovely sisters from Ohio : Melissa and Angela.

This is what I received :

See, they spoiled me ... and boy, these chocolates are delicioussssssssss!

And these are the cards I sent :

That's all for now, I'll be back some time this week , Pam from the BlueBetween gave me an award a few weeks ago and I still have to pass it on ...

New copper ring

Kind of hard cover book

based on this tutorial, the cover is made of fake wood linoleum, I made the aluminium heart as well. More to come I think!

Woven

I made this bracelet thinking about Sherry's copper beaded cuff . It's quite comfortable to wear !
Copper and brass.

And now, it looks like this :

My Preciousssssssssss

Look at this amazing heavy gorgeous silver ring ... It's mine, mine, mine! Janos from Blindspot Jewellery made it ... each time I was looking at his etsy shop, this ring was calling me ... I couldn't resist no more and bought it ... Since I make jewelry myself, I tend not to buy any ... but I make an exception with Janos ... I'd buy his all shop if I'd listen to the little voice in my heart! Check his etsy shop ... see if you can resist !

New stuff
