Hello Hello!
Welcome to Whimsy Wednesday!
This has been a very interesting and productive week for me so far and I hope it is the same for you!
I've been busy with creations that were in-statis as we waited for the finishing materials to arrive. The materials did arrive and so I have finished creations to show you today and Friday!
Whee!!!
Let's begin with the most whimsical first!
(Working) Title: The Perfect Companions for a Psychedelic Trip
Ingredients: Lampwork glass owls, Swarovski crystals, lead-free pewter(USA), metal, silver-plated surgical steel earwires(hypo-allergenic).
I really love these unusual owls! I wanted to keep the design simple, both to highlight the fabulous feathered friends and to create something that would be equally at home with casual jean-based outfits as well as club wear! I wonder if these would glow under black-light?! Hmmmmmm!
These next earring creations are all about whimsy and elegance!
Title: Miss Kitty
Ingredients: Lampwork glass kitties, Czech glass, lead-free pewter(USA), metal, silver-plated surgical steel earwires(hypo-allergenic).
Miss Kitty's expressions are so droll that they encourage me to giggle! I love the little pink dots reminiscent of a bow just below her right ear! I gave her accenting pink cathedral-cut Czech glass beads just below her chin so that she would have a very elegant collar...as all well-mannered cats should!
Hee!
And now to take the Whimsy in a different direction!
These earrings are fun in the way the colours of the furnace glass and the faceted vintage Czech glass play with the light!
Title: Playing with the Light
Ingredients: Furnace glass, vintage and non-vintage Czech glass, lead-free pewter(USA), metal, silver-plated surgical steel earwires(hypo-allergenic).
Designing asymmetrical art and creations is always intriguing and I'm quite pleased with how these turned out!
