Jewelry Catchup!
SO
Been really busy lately. But now I decide to upload a whole bunch of photos to show what I've been doing in the jewelry realm, since heaven knows I haven't left it. Pictures galore after the cut!
Preview:
So first up is this bracelet I made using some piece off a dress that my mom found and thought I'd like. I'm actually now thinking of converting it to a necklace pendant, but for now it's quite nice anyway.
That's a chandelier crystal bit on top.
Next is the preview image, which is a bracelet that I made to correspond with the whole Cinderella-fairytale theme. I made a necklace with a castle charm, remember? So I bought a pack of princess-theme charms and put them to use on this bracelet.
So it is a little charm heavy, but I love it anyway.
And since I had another carriage charm and I just loved that little one so much, I made it into a necklace.
One problem that I have, though, is that when I wear it, the pendant goes upside down. I think I might have to reattach the chain at a different spot so the weight isn't uneven.
Next we have one of the first bracelets I ever made, a little pink number with a key charm that my grandmother found off the streets. [That's what she told me.] But it's terribly cute.
Clunky in a good way.
The next is another similar bracelet, made more recently.
And a pair of earrings to throw in to the mix!
They're mismatch with assorted glass beads and glass imitation cat's eye bell charms.
I've also been experimenting with polymer clay, and I like tiny foods best. So tiny food jewelry, here we go!
Caution: not very professional but most are cute nonetheless. I use plenty of glaze, also.
Cupcake!
Lightweight and adorable :D this was the best cupcake of the batch. The rest were a little too cylindrical to be cupcake like, but whatever.
Here's a pair of cupcake earrings. Far from identical... but anyway....
I stuck in some rhinestones for a little bling. The kind with pointy backs.
One last food item: Donuts!!!
All my donuts turned out pretty cute; they're pretty easy. One complaint is that one of the kinds of clay that I used for the donut bases darkened in the oven, which I didn't want. Oh well, it's all about the glaze anyway xP
That's it for now! I've made some polyclay cakes, which were murder to texture, but they're a little too big for jewelry, and a little less than perfect... maybe cell phone keychains, I'm thinking? Either way, I'll put 'em up on this site sooner or later. :D
