Wooden Jewelry

My husband and I have been working to make some wooden jewelry and we have completed our first pair of earrings. These earrings were made with Maple, Agate and Copper. The wooden piece was cut using a method that allows these "beads" to be 3 dimensional and all one piece. I added a Crazy Lace Agate and the earrings are wire-wrapped with copper wire then place in copper oxidized leverback earwires. More photos and the finished earrings are available at Divella Delights

Felted Bags

I am very happy to report that the "Little Bag" series is a success! You can see more at Divella Delights as well as some larger felted bags and clutches. I love to have an excuse to knit so thanks to all my wonderful customers!
I really need to focus on getting some jewelry done but with the temperature dropping all I want to do is knit and crochet. The jewelry store is getting low on stock and it is not the best time of year to neglect that for sure. I suppose that in light of this I will be at the table creating designs of the gemstone variety this week when I am not at LL Beans answering phone calls!
As far as those wonderful Flapper hats I have some in stock already. Last year they took off suddenly and I was up until well after midnight crocheting like crazy. This year I have quite a few made up ready to go.

Grab a cup of tea and stop by Divella Delights and check out the new jewelry, hats and felted bags.

WOODEN JEWELRY

I know I said I was going to bring you Maine Artisans, but I went to Canada this weekend for my husband's uncle's 50th wedding anniversary and felt inspired to bring you some Canadian work. I love wood and I love jewelry so this artist seemed logical and Wow what gorgeous work. The middle one I love especially (titled "Let the rain fall down) as the entire time we were there it rained with the exception of a few hours during the party. We all had a great time and I met many relatives. I have decided to take french lessons so I can communicate with them! How fun! You can see much more at http://www3dots.etsy.com/ Have fun shopping!
