$50.00
I can only describe the color of this necklaces' pendant as "ELECTRIC"!! This is a REAL LEAF! It was harvested from a tree, painted with eyecatching colors and preserved forever in enamel! This is a large Maple leaf, at (Approx) 3" X 3". I've added two complimentary colored Swarovski Crystal "Cosic" cut, large (10X12mm) accents.

Two firey (6mm) bicone Swarovsky crystals flowing down the front, add a firey spark against the vivid color of this leaf. The flow concludes with a wire-wrapped, hexagon cut Swarovski Crystal! AND, just when you thought it couldn't get any better....a stunning golden filagree swirl box clasp adds the finishing touch!

While this leaf is very sturdy, I prefer a short chain length for this necklace. If you would like a longer chain length, just state your desired length in the "Notes to seller box upon ordering. There is no additional fee for alteration!

Japanese Washi Paper / Dressed / HEIRLOOM / Also Naked / Glass Ornaments

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 12:00:57 -0500

$10.00
I handcrafted these glass Christmas ornament balls, covering them in Japanese Washi Paper that I had imported from Japan! You may choose eith "Naked" or "Dressed". The prices are the same for either! I handcraft these to order,
but I can ship orders for multiples within 3 days!

Here is what "Washi Paper" is:

The word washi comes from Japanese words for “Japanese” and “paper.” Washi, also known as wagami, is traditionally a handmade Japanese paper based on three chief components: kozo or mulberry bark, gampi, and misumata. Each of the three has unique properties and is used alone or in combination in multiple types of washi.

These balls are magical and destined to become a treasured family heirloom!

Antique and Bright Silver Hammered Necklace / DUALITY / Free Shipping

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:34:06 -0500

$15.00
I really like the look of antique silver, combined with bright silver! It enhances the different qualities of both! The antique-silver "daggers" are hammered, giving this necklace a rustic touch, cobined with the "neatness" of the other components. I named this necklace "Duality" because I find that combining opposites always results in a stunning effect!

This necklace adjusts from 17.25" to 19.75" in length. If you so desire, I would be happy to make an alteration (free, of course) resulting in this necklace being a single length. I have wire-wrapped a cute, bright silver, 12mm leaf to the adjustable portion of the chain! This leaf will sway lazily down the back of your neck when wearing this necklace! (perfect for "up-do's"!

$10.00
I made this pendant using "Kato Brand" polymer clay in "silver Mica". I used the "Mica Shift" technique to create the honeycomb pattern on the face of this pendant!

As with my other silver Poly pendant, folks will want to touch it! This pendant also looks different, depending on the angle of the light hitting it!!

I did not add a bail, to offer you your own options! I will happily add a bail (matching the other double loop bail, SP) at NO ADDITIONAL cost to you!! Just be sure to advise me that you want the bail added & undwerstand that it may delay shippment by an additional 24hrs. I signed and dated the reverse of this very interesting, OOAK pendant!

Wire Wrapped Long / double strand OOAK Necklace / DENIM DELIGHT / Free Shipping

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 16:01:58 -0500

$60.00
Perfect with your favorite pair of jeans and a white top! The longest strand of this slip-on style, multi-strand necklace is a generous 40" in length! The shorter strand measures 28". I used two very different silver-plated neckchains in this show stopping artisan necklace. The smaller of the two chains has links that are 5mm in length (each) while the larger chain lengths are 15mm in size(each).

This necklace is loaded with my artisan wire-wrapping! And I've chosen to apply different techniques, from coiling to bead-wrapping as well! For my wire-wrapping I chose bold 18 gauge silver-toned wire. The large deep blue beads are handcrafted, lampwork glass, while the smaller beads are "Confetti" Glass! In Lampwork Glass any designs are applied to the exterior of the beads, whereas in "Confetti" beads, the designs are in the interior of the beads! I basically "went wild" mixing chain styles and wrapping wire! There are also 7mm corrugated, silver-plated beads and lots of silver-plated crimp-covers!

This single necklace was VERY labor intensive! Of all the items I have EVER made (including Polymer-Clay), this necklace took the longest for me to construct! I chose 18 Gauge wire not only for it's bold impact, but also for it's durability!

$50.00
I picked-up my silver wire when darkness was settling yesterday and was suddenly, seemingly, posessed by what I knew was a Forest Nymph! I was unable to stop untill this bracelet was completed! This cuff style bracelet adjusts from 7 to 9.50". A small Czech Crystal dangles gracefully fropm the extension chain, which can be shortened if you desire (state length in "Notes to seller" box when ordering) no additional fee.

The small crystals from "The Czech Republic" reminded me of morning dew, the large (15mm)Swarovski Crystal of the rising sun, shining through the trees. The Russian Jade "rice beads" and Ching Hai Jade rounds speak of the opulent greens which abound!

The vintage leaf beads and Czech bellflowers, in their white reminiscent of the frosty mornings of the coming winter! The Forest Nymph spoke to me, and this is what she said:
The Forest Nymphs prefer to stay
within the forest, where they play.
This Nymph will cast a magic spell
upon the wrist, this bracelet dwells.
The spirit of the forest's trees
will bring good luck, and comfort thee.

My original poem is included with it's bracelet, printed on a beautiful card!

Three Way Necklace / Czech Glass and RUBBER beads / TRIPLE DELIGHT / Free Shipping

Fri, 25 Sep 2009 16:34:05 -0400

$20.00
These beautiful (17mm) satin-finish square beads are actually made of RUBBER! You would NEVER know it! The color is indescribably beautiful! They are a deep, rich, red. They also give-off a hint of black, satin luster! They were just made available and I thought that they would be interesting, but I did not expect their rich, stunning color!

I paired these puffy, diagonally-drilled squares with "Ruby Red" facited glass beads (4 & 6mm) from The Czech Republic. I felt that adding (3mm) smooth, Gold-Plated beads on either side of the puffy squares would make them "pop"! In my opinion, mission accomplished!

I have been thinking about making a clasp the focal-piece of a necklace for some time now. I was actually going thru my supplies, gathering needed items for another project when this design "hit me"! Gold goes exceptionally well with red, and I had all of the components, so I abandoned my original project to design and handcraft this necklace! The clasp may be worn (as seen in my photo's) three different ways! Imagine wearing that "little black dress" with your hair in an "updo"! You'll have that playful, sexy "fountain" of red spilling forth from the heart! I almost named this necklace "Bleeding Heart"! The length of this very functional necklace is 22". I plan on doing more clasp-focused necklaces in the future!

My Polymer Clay Necklace / FALL FANTASY / Signed and Dated / OOAK / Free Shipping

Mon, 31 Aug 2009 09:25:15 -0400

$40.00
I am SO proud of this necklace! I handcrafted the detailed polymer clay leaf, using "The Skinner Technique" of blending polymer clay colors. I used mica (Metallic) gold and a pearl (mica) red for this leaf! I have signed and dated the back of this handcrafted leaf, which is finished with a resin coating on the front.

I attached a beautiful, very ornate Antique Brass filigree to the top section of the leaf. This necklace has a secret!!!! just above where the top of the leaf ends, hidden beneath the AB filigree work lies a deep Topaz-colored, genuine Swarovski Crystal! I fitted a whopping
10mm facated, Swarovski Crystal Chaton in there! (I LOVE surprises!

The leaf is 2.25" X 2.25" in size! The necklace length is 20.50" in length. This is a very lightweight necklace and was very labor-intensive!

Definately One-Of-A-Kind! Aprilee

Lampwork Glass Bracelet / OIL SLICK / OOAK / Free Shippping

Wed, 26 Aug 2009 08:42:46 -0400

$10.00
The only way to describe the colors of these beads would be: If you've ever seen a small amount of fuel (oil/gasoline) floating on top of the water on a sunny day, that is the effect of these Lampwork Glass beads!

Each of these (15mm) beads flash a multitude of colors! I have tried to show as many color variations in my photos as possible! Though this is an 8" bracelet, my wrist circumfrence is 7" and it is quite "snug" on me! The large bead size makes for less "room" in this bracelet! I would strongly suggest measuring your wrist to make sure this bracelet will fit you comfortably!

Each bead is flanked by antique-finished, gold-plated spacer beads and a 4mm, gold-plated, corrugated bead.
I've finished this bracelet with a gold-plated, self-closing lobster-claw style clasp. This particular clasp stays closed & can handle heavy jewelry pieces! This clasp is also easy to open/close without help!

Beautiful and Funky! Aprilee
