Necklace "Olive Tree Leaves"

These are 3 views of the necklace i just made. I have to say that i'm really pleased of the result !
It is called "Olive Tree Leaves"... from the leaves shape obviously.
It is made of sterling silver wire and the leaves are made using the solder technique i have explained in my "organic style" tutorial

Stained Glass Rings

These are a couple of rings i've made using the stained glass technique. I had lots of messages about this technique and since there is so much interest i am planning to make a tutorial by the end of the week.

Stained glass pendants


This is a collection of pendants i've made using the stained glass technique. I also added wire and gems in some cases.
You can actually cut any shape of glass and make tons of wire decorations... just get inspired!

Rain necklace

This is a sterling silver necklace with solder balls in the end of each wire. Too many variations can be made of this necklace if you add beads...

Carnelian Flower


This flower's petals and stamens are made of wire and solder!
Just add some gems (carnelian in this case) and there you have it! Pretty isn't it?

Lariat


Simple lariat, using sterling silver wire, white aventurine and rose quartz.

Pendant

Sterling silver wire and solder to make all those small balls and petals.

Brooches


A couple of brooches. These were my first projects ever!
Not bad for the first time, dont you think?

All are glass or metal beads. In the second brooch the leaves and the small silver balls are actually made by me using solder

Circles


Sterling silver pendant, with swarovski crystals and onyx.

Heart pendant

Sterling silver, swarovski crystal and czech glass bead.
One of my first attempts to make a wire wrapped pendant.
I like the general idea but I have to learn to be more patient when it comes to wrapping!
