 Wood n Leather Penguins

By: Fauxhead

Wood n Leather Penguins is the 4th of my Animal Pendants series. They are made from Premo polymer clay using faux wood and faux leather techniques. As with all my animal pendants, this could also be used to hang decoratively in a shadow box or on a small wall. It is 54 mm (2 1/8") tall.

Sterling Silver Flower Bracelet

By: PenelopePitstopDesigns

Handmade Sterling Silver and Polymer Clay Bracelet.  I made the beads of this bracelet using many layers of polymer clay, then sanded and buffed the beads. Absolutely no paints were used.  I then handmade each silver bezel to fit each individual bead.  The bracelet measures approximately 7.75"(19.4cm)in length. Each bead is approximately 1.1 x 0.75"(2.75 x 1.8cm) All the metal is sterling silver.

 Shabby Chic Earrings

By: Chifonie

These earrings are in blue and brown shades, "shabby chic" ambiance, with "millefiori" flowers, surrounded by an intricated pattern. These focal beads are handcrafted by me in polymerclay, sanded and buffed for a natural polish aspect.  + smaller complimenting accents : white cat eye beads, silver-tone metal beads and caps.  They are very light weight.  The drop is about 1"1/4 (3,5 cm) from the silver-tone earring wires, for a total length of about 2" (4,5 cm).

Decorative Wall hanging Key Holder

By: RFColorfulCreations

Never again fish around for your keys at home. Hang them on this decorative key holder and pick them up on your way out. It can also be used as a decorative holder for your pot holders.
This holder has a underwater sea design. It was created with polymer clay and triple glazed for a brilliant shine and protection. The wood base was painted a Mediterranean blue and the pegs Rosewood stained color.  It has two hangers on the back for hanging.  The decorative plague measures 6 1/2" W x 9 1/2" H. From top to pegs holders measures 10 1/2".

Today I am featuring the

Beautiful Handmade Sterling Silver 

Artisan Jewelry

Created by:

Lavender Cottage

In the Artist's words:

My passion for art began as a six-year-old growing up in Chicago. My mother was an art student, and I was fascinated by her oil painting and jewelry projects. Trips to Chicago’s fabulous Art Institute came often, further instilling the love for art that would become a constant in an eclectic career path ranging from horsewoman to freight pilot to computer programmer. Our family’s organic garden and frequent camping trips nurtured a love for nature, especially flowers and rocks, which finds its way into much of my work today.

I started making jewelry when I was given a gift of handmade earrings from a friend. I was amazed that she had made them herself. I bought some beads that very week, and learned how to make earrings. Since then, making jewelry has been a passion and a joy that keeps the rest of my life in perspective. My style has evolved and grown over the years, and I am now a full time metal smith, mostly self-taught.
