I'm so excited about the new snowflake charm necklace I've created! I've been wanting to do some metal stamped jewelry for quite some time but things somehow never turn out as nicely as I want them to. The other day I decided to attempt it again and these turned out beautifully! Snowflake Charm Necklace  I love the look and feel of these. I decided to have 3 different snowflakes to choose from as well as choosing a black cord or a silver chain. Everybody loves a little customization. If you have a snowflake lover in your life this snowflake charm necklace will be the perfect handmade gift for any occasion.  Here is a little "behind the scenes" look at how they are created.  Hand stamping   Various stages of stamping Teeny tiny letters Before patina After patina Finished snowflake charm necklaces I enjoy created handmade jewelry for you so much!

So this has certainly been a year packed FULL of snowflakes for me! Which has turned out to be a pretty darned good year! An update on what has happened in the past couple of months... In September I completed a project for Art Prize. It was a big stained glass snowflake with photos of snowflakes framed within it and 4 smaller snowflakes that go on each side of the large one. This is how it turned out  I must say that I am quite proud of the way that it turned out. I cannot wait to bring it home...after 10 days straight of 8 to 14 hour days working on it trying to complete it before the deadline...I kind of miss it. Although I have had many other things to fill my time with. I have been spending much more time at the gallery, Serendipity181. A wonderful place to be. Mary always has plenty of projects for me to occupy my time and it gives me experience in doing the things that I went to school to do. I get to take care of the website, and product photos as well as promo...
