I Dream Of:: Aching Fingers

Spent most of yesterday making lots of lovely gems. I will post even more in the next few days. After so much twisting and cutting and beading my fingers are a bit sore. I believe a feel a callous coming up on my pointer finger!

With all this work, I am off to the shop to purchase some beautiful ribbon for my new season of jewels. I mentioned them earlier and they are just about done. I created 4 necklaces yesterday and dreamt about a style of bracelet. Still working out the logistics of how it will wear. I am so excited about it. Maybe I will have them done today for my post tomorrow!

I Dream Of:: a line of sweet clusters

Today I started working on my new line of necklaces. I really enjoyed the necklace I sold this christmas and thought designing a few more would be fun.

As I woke up this morning I started taking down my christmas decorations and putting together colors and ideas. Yes, it is a bit bizarre to take down christmas decorations and create something at the same time. But De-decorating makes me sad and creating makes me happy ....

These are a few clusters that I came up with this morning. I also have a wedding order coming in July. Do you think she will love the pearl cluster? Imagine that on a white organza ribbon... Devine

I Dream of:: The New Arrival!

I just opened my online store!  I am so excited about this.  I have been building this site for a few months and I owe a very large thanks to my husband.  He  was so very patient with my all my changes. Now that I have my store on line,  I would like to extend some of the Joy of it's arrival.  

To celebrate, Made in Stone is giving away $5 per online order at time of checkout.  Stop by, browse and feel free to give me some feedback. I would love to hear from you.

A New Venture

Well, I finally decided to open an Esty.com shop.  My sister in law mentioned that I should give it a go.  There is a lot of people out there.  But few jewelry sellers in Australia.  I am thinking of opening a team for Aussie Sellers on Etsy.  This is one of my latest creations.  I hand rolled the Copper wire beads.  it is paired with Aquamarine, Jade, Amazonite and different Thai silver beads.  I love this necklace.  It is a very soothing piece.  I think now you can see why I liked that room in my last post?  Just noticed the colors are pretty similar...

I also discovered this wonderful artist in france.  His work is has a very sensitive and romantic quality to it.  Plus it isn't very large which makes  it even more intimate.
