The Sweetest Friends Are The Real Treasuries

This wonderful collection The Sweetest Thing is the first Etsy treasury made by my dear friend Kathleen aka missusD.
I'm crossing my fingers for it to get to the Frontpage!
You can all help by clicking in the picture and leaving a comment there :)
Thanks Kathleen for including me in your first treasury (of many, I hope)!

The Copy [Final Step]

This is my final object for The Copy Project in the Jewellery Design Laboratory class based on the idea of high heels.
Is it Beauty or Vanity?
A cage or a few inches closer to heaven?
Isn't it freedom when you can choose your own slavery?
And can this be a jewellery piece when you experience it in your body, even if you can not actually wear it?

Giveaway > New Year, New Series

"Welcome back" is the first piece from the Girls Are Weird [XL/XS] series.
In this series, each picture is a print from original drawings of mine, printed in photographic paper and protected with a glass looking resin. The frame is a can bottom hand cut, hand pierced and the silk ribbon around it ends up in a knot holding a twisted sterling silver link. You can wear it around your neck or just hang it on the wall.
A XL pendant or a XS frame, either way, it's your choice :)

And to welcome this new year and new series, I'm giving the first piece to one of you.
Just leave a comment on this post and you are in.
Sunday the 17th January, when I'm exactly 5 months from being an year older, I'll get in touch with the lucky winner.
Meanwhile I'll start listing the rest of the series on my Etsy shop.
Feel very welcome to drop by.

Delightful

The year has just begun and here's the first Etsy Treasury featuring one of my rings in 2010.
It's called delightful by PianoBenchDesigns and includes my Black Cherry Blossom ring.
Isn't it a lovely collection?

Happy New Year!

The Copy [Third Step]

To wear dreams on one's feet is to begin to give reality to one's dreams. Roger Vivier

Here's the first glimpse of my final object.
This preview image was one of the several resulting renders after building the object in Rhinoceros during Modeling and Prototyping classes oriented by Rafael Coelho.
I'm already starting the last task for The Copy project - making the real one in metal.
So, wish me luck!
Or even better... wish me perfection :)
