I spent the day cleaning and now I’am loving my space…that’s enough… right? lol. I was going to start a new sterling silver jewelry project, but it’s late and i’d rather blog a little and think this project through…I’m already looking at this smokey and lemon quartz briolettes and thinking of the fall colors, although I want something more springy…or just something new…right? I used to work for weeks on the same project…when i was done… i didn’t want any more big projects…just little things… i didn’t realize this was going to be so time consuming… and slightly difficult, but now it takes less than a day to complete one. I’m very excited with the clean cut and the AAA clarity of these smokey quartz briolettes I got from Thailand! It’s going to be fun working with them, and i have a good feeling! (i can’t show photos because i don’t want to spoil the surprise, but I will make a sterling silver necklace/earrings and maybe I will add some Austrian Swarovski crystal drops in a matching color…)

handmade sterling silver wire earrings

I haven’t really been wire wrapping much in the past days, due to the fact that my family has been visiting me and thoroughly enjoying the sun and the promise of summer upon us .We had lots of fun activities! Today, though I managed to finish the yellow jade necklace and the matching jade earrings (done with the “herringbone” technique I mentioned in the last blog post),  so if you’d like to take a look here are a few things that I’ve uploaded today:

Do you know how much I love jade? Perhaps you would have guessed by now…:) But I do. It’s just, well, beautiful… I really like the design and I promise I’ll get some more handmade wire jewelry done. But for now, it’s all I have and at a very affordable price!
