I am not really a delicate kind of jewelry gal.
I don't buy it.
I don't wear it.
And I usually don't make it.
But sometimes a girl just has to try something different.
Armed with lace, silk, beds and buttons, off I go.
Into the delicate pink yonder.
Join me, won't you?
First up: a choker made from recycled silk strips and lace.
A little white linen cord to tie off the ends.
A few handmade jump rings make it adjustable.
I have a big neck but I try to remember the rest of the world may be much smaller than me.
This sweet little buckle was the inspiration for the whole piece.
Next up: a triple strand seed bead necklace.
Also not my style, but fun to try.
Simple beading with a little lace choker layer added at the end.
And last, but not least: a button choker.
This one I WOULD wear.
Simple white buttons from the many, many button jars I collect.
Knotted together with white waxed linen cord.
I love working with that stuff.
I finished it off with a strip of pink silk and a little white flower button.
Do you see anything that is your style?
Which one?
Thanks for stopping by...
