Faceted Fancy Jasper in a New Autumn Necklace

The weather has been glorious the past few days. Really putting me in the mood for fall.

I grabbed that fall muse by the hand and ran down the path of creativity giggling all the way. I have been very happy with myself the past few days, being able  to find time to create more jewelry and get it posted online.

This one is really a favorite of what I have been doing. These stones together have a beautiful offering of peace and gentleness. TTiny faceted fancy jasper beads are the accent to the piece, with a rose colored ceramic pendant. I added the tree agate, because summer is not yet over, and there is still plenty of green to be had. It is a nice splash of color, just like what is in my yard, and the fancy jasper is the leaves that have just started to fall, and are scattered around.

Notice how there are three seed beads between each of the stones, expect for in one spot. I do this intentionally. It is a signature so to speak. Yes there is a pattern, but everyonceinawhile, I like to mess it up, to remind myself, I am not perfect. I still have so much to learn and so much to do - if I was perfect, what else would there be?

Do you have a signature or message that you put into your designs, something that is a little bit of you?

Copper Swirl Pendant with Agate

Staring blankly at my work table, there are times, I just can't get my creativity going. I have found a good fix for that is to fiddle. Not play a violin ( :)  )  but to just pick stuff up, mess around, put it down, 99 bottles of beer on the wall...

Wait where was I...

So, I have made this design before, smaller in a pair of earrings.  It really is simple, easy, the wire makes its own self into this design kinda thing. Playing with this, I noticed the tree agate briolette... hrm.....

Dig, dig dig...

Yes, I like these little pieces

And - WAH-LA!!!

I love how it just forms all by itself in your hand
