You saw this coming right? Of course Dude wants his own necklace too. Won’t we be so cute?! I love the bronzclay, but I’m more of a silver girl. So on this piece I added a fine layer of silver by plating the pendant and then of course I antiqued it a bit with liver of sulphur. I’m pretty happy with the results and I’ve got a few more ideas… Stay tuned!

Here is another pendant that I made from bronzclay. Once again I set a cabochon that I made. This pendant is actually an earlier one that I forgot to photograph. I was messing around with using the small silver balls… which I love! And then I set the cz in and embeddable prong setting. I think it is kind of fun. Anyway, I’ve got sooo many ideas for this metal clay floating about in my head, and even tools to try but with the dreaded illness running amok in our house I have not been getting much done! However, I have high hopes for this weekend. DH is scampering off to San Francisco with the girls to visit family so I plan to play and experiment! Wish me luck!

I just love these big ol’ Lucite beads. They are big and… light. I love necklaces to make a statement but I don’t want to have a tired neck at the end of the day so Lucite works great for this! It is a fun necklace that I love to throw on with a t-shirt and jeans, not to mention it was quick to whip up. Sometimes simple is nice.

Did you think that YOJ – Year of Jewelry had died? I know… it certainly has slowed down. I tell ya’ sometimes I just don’t know where the time goes! But I have been making a few necklaces lately. This one uses black cord and knotting. I kind of like it! I really like the focal bead which is why I snapped it up from the Mart. Anyway, I’ve got a few more pieces to share so keep watching!

I’m making another necklace…

Remember this post? I finished the necklace and sold it in the Mart and never mentioned it over here. So I thought I’d kick of my Year of Jewelry 2010 (in March…yikes!) with it.

Here is a pic of a necklace I made for my mom. I made some other gifts but of course I forgot to photograph them…
