Sweets For Your Sweetie

It's that time of year again!

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

You need something for your Sweetie,

What do you do?

Order some hand made jewelry!

All ceramic beads are hand rolled by me and individually brushed with 3 coats of glaze. After firing I match them the best I can and assemble them with the findings.

Necklaces have either a silver chain or black leather cord, sometimes a mix of the two. All necklaces have lobster claw clasps. For whatever reason, I'm having issues with lighting today, so I took the closer up pics so you can see the detail of the glaze a bit better. Since I hiked each one up so it would fit on my display neck, I'll include the chain/cord length and approximately where the beads hit. Each of the following are $60. One of each in stock.

Speckled Kiwi drop necklace with black leather cord. This is a really pretty fresh green with dark & medium blue and white speckles. The cord is 19'', so the bottom 2 beads flirt with the top of your cleavage.

Plum Jelly drop necklace with silver chain. This is a fruity plum/purple glaze with dark blue-y-purple and white speckles. The chain is 20'', so the beads nestle in your cleavage. WOOHOO!

Up close

Turquoise drop necklace with black leather cord. This is a lovely matte light turquoise with darker turquoise speckles. The speckles are somewhat shiny, and create a cool texture. (See the swatch below.) The cord is 22'', so the beads nestle right between the girls. While it is a light turquoise, the color is more intense than how it is showing here.

Turquoise drop necklace with silver chain. This one is a bit smaller, 3 beads instead of 5. The chain is 18 inches long. The bottom ofthe longest bead hits just above your cleavage. $45.

Call me a Fool!

I took a few weeks off for the holidays, but it's time to get back to it.

My next big project? The special finisher's award for the Fool's 50k Trail Run. The races winds through the scenic Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Peninsula, Ohio. And it's organized by long-time distance runner & coach Lloyd Thomas, so you know it's going to be a good experience. And when you finish you get one of my pieces.
