Wire Jewelry - Older Pieces from Simple Yet Elegant Collection

I was "spring cleaning" sort of all my files and bookmarks today and came across some older pictures of some earrings that I have not posted here or anywhere else.

They are from the "Simple Yet Elegant" version.

The tutorial for this is available at my etsy and craftsy shops.

This one appeared after rain in our area last Saturday.

This view greeted us on our way out for dinner later the same day.

Wire Jewelry - Wire Wrapped Rose Studs

This pair of rose earrings was made a while back.
Pictures were kept to collect dust...haha!
The pair is however with its new owner now.

Wire wrapped with 20 gauge stainless steel wire, this is not a difficult project and does not involve lots of tools.
All you need is wire, wire cutter, something round to act as mandrel (e.g. marker pen), and file for filling the stud's end.

I have a tutorial for similar earrings here - click on the links:

Etsy - Rose Earrings Tutorial

I have it at Artfire as well. However, it is easier at Etsy or Craftsy as the tutorial is instantly downloadable. You do not have to wait for me to email you the tutorial. Artfire does not have this facility.

Have a great Sunday.

Offwire - Potato Roses

Today's post is about food.

Ya, I rarely post about food.

However, I must post this because it is one of the easiest to prepare and the boys love them.

So, here is my potato roses.

There are many recipes available online if you google for it.
This one here is from my Pinterest collection - Potato Roses at Pinterest

This one here was back in December last year.

They love having them with creamed corn.

If potato roses isn't your thing, you can always check out my other roses' related thingy - wire jewelry tutorials:

Wire Jewelry - Tree of Life Pendant

I said I will post more often.
But, my more often is not that often.

Another long overdue post here.
This Tree of Life Pendant (TOL) and bracelet is for our dearest primary school English teacher - Mona San Louis.

We have not seen her for like more than 30 years!
But she looks great and beautiful as ever.

I didn't attend the reunion but just managed to get this TOL pendant and bracelet on time, to attend on my behalf.

I don't remember ever making a TOL pendant before, so this is a first.
I used peridot, garnet and tourmaline.

Minlet with peridot to accompany the TOL pendant.

There are many tutorials (fee and paid) to make similar Tree of Life pendant online. Check them out here - https://goo.gl/DkqzlR
This should keep you busy browsing thru them.

Happy weekend.
