Yellow Enameled Ornament

Mon, 07 Dec 2009 22:42:08 -0500

$40.00
Just in time for the Holidays!

This dimensional copper ornament is stamped with a dot pattern that I stamp one dot at a time. It is coated with glass enamel (a powdered glass that fuses to metal at high temperatures). The result has a great lemon yellow color.

All my ornaments were inspired by vintage German tin ornaments that use tabs to hold the 2 sides together. It does not open, but will look beautiful on your Christmas tree for the holidays or just hanging on a dresser knob for the rest of the year!

Makes a perfect gift.

The 3rd image shows the backside of the ornament, which is smooth, and the 2nd image shows the ornament's depth; about .75" It hangs from a chocolaty-brown satin ribbon.

approx. 2.5" in diameter

The third image shows the reverse side of the pendant.

The clasp is a handmade hook and eye.

Barrettes

$30.00
This listing is for a pair of hand-made sterling silver barrettes.

Beaded wire helps the barrettes hold your hair with vintage charm!

I was inspired to make these after I saw an antique gold barrette that was so delicate and feminine, I had to make my own version.

approx. 1.5" x .75"

Tiny Diamond Ring

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 14:14:41 -0500

$60.00
This is a delicate diamond ring handmade with sterling silver.

There are two small silver balls on either side of the stone. The diamond is approximately 2 mm in diameter and is a brilliant cut with a bright, white color. The shank is square.

This would make a perfect "first diamond ring" gift for a daughter or grand-daughter!

It is a size 5 1/2, but can be sized up or down slightly--just ask!

***If you're curious about the source of this diamond, it was liberated from a tacky cocktail ring that belonged to my grandmother.

Round Enameled Ornament

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 19:26:03 -0500

$40.00
This adorable copper ornament was made by forming two thin sheets of copper, stamping them with a pattern, fusing powered glass enamel to the surface and tab-fitting the halves together.

The result has all the detail of my copper bowls, but with a Holiday flare!

The 4th image is the back of the ornament.

Approximate size: 2.5" x 2.5" x .75"

Aluminum Ornament

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 10:15:29 -0500

$15.00
This aluminum ornament was made by forming a thin aluminum sheet that I then pattern with dots that are stamped one at a time. It's like a grown-up version of the punched tin-foil crafts we all made as children.
The aluminum is very light weight and could hang on the most delicate branches of your holiday tree

It would make a wonderful gift this Holiday Season, or a charming adornment for your dresser drawers the rest of the year!

The 2nd image shows the backside of the ornament.

It hangs on a red satin ribbon.

Pierced Aluminum Ornament

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 13:27:22 -0500

$27.00
I'm really excited about my new pierced aluminum ornaments!

This ornament started out as two thin aluminum sheets that were pressed to make them gently pillowed. I then create the pattern on the ornament by stamping each dot one at a time.

I pierced one half to reveal the hollow interior and connected the halves with a red satin ribbon and a vintage-style tab connection on the bottom.

The result is very light-weight and could easily hang from the most delicate branches on your tree.

Of course, it's also pretty enough to hang off a drawer knob for the rest of the year, too!

The last image shows the ornament's backside.

approx. 2.5" in diameter.

Medium Wall Pocket

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 12:36:57 -0500

There's a hole on the back for hanging.

Approx. size: 4"h x 4"w x .5"d.

4 inch copper wall panel

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 18:19:16 -0500

$42.00
This listing is for a 4" x 4" square copper wall panel. It is slightly pillowed and each dot is individually stamped, either from the front or the back of the panel, which creates the depth and dimension of the piece. I gently heat the copper to give it it's color, so each panel is slightly different because they never heat the same way twice! I love the orange/brown color of this panel. It is sealed with wax, so the color will not change over time.

This listing is for one panel, but they look great in multiples--see the last image for an example

This would make a charming addition to your home (or someone else's!--the Holidays are coming...)

There is a wire on the back for hanging.
