Here we have a sample of the earrings for sale this year.  We have Viking Knit in 10 colors, wire crochet with pearls and 4mm Czech beads, charm bracelet earrings with tons of different stuff to tickle your fancy, crystal earrings just because they are so sparklie and more on other displays that will tickle more of your fancy.  They are only for sale at the shows so check the schedule and come see me and all my new goodies this year.

Some of my favorite things to do are with wire and metal.  I used to like weaving as a kid and still like it but now it's with wire instead of paper or yarn.  Art class was always my best liked subject in school so when I took a metal class there was no looking back.  Everything I make is with some kind of hand tool and I don't use heat of any kind.  The only power tool I use is a dremel and that is only for polishing.  So when I say my jewelry is handmade--I mean handmade!

The pendant on the left is the one I wrapped for my daughter last year.  Same pendant on the right but with a 52" chain she made for it with 4mm rondelles made from apatite, amethyst, lemon quartz, pink corundum quartz and parrot green quartz.  I told her:  "You have learned well grasshopper!"

Look at those pearls!  Absolutely beautiful freshwater pearls in greens and amethyst!  The Czech glass beads just add to the sparkle of this set.  This is an example of the wire crochet jewelry you will find at one of my shows.  All pieces are made with non-tarnishing silver wire and they are soft on the skin--nothing that pokes you.  If you have never worn a piece of my wire crochet jewelry you have to find a show near you this year and try on a piece to get the full effect.  There is nothing like wearing a comfortable piece of jewelry that you can adjust to your size.
