Sweet Treats and Stocking Stuffers

It was that time again ................. this year I thought I would like to attempt to make a few gifts for a couple of my favourite people.  Just testing the waters you do understand, next year I might make more gifts.  I find it quite hard to make things for friends as I get overcome with nerves as to whether or not they like the gift or are just being really kind to me.

I am freakishly sensitive and giving a bad gift is enough to stop me sleeping properly for weeks!  I know, this is really trivial when you think of all the actual misfortune in the world. But I guess we all have our thing!


So this ring is assembled from bits and pieces
I have collected over the years.  Have always loved
the tangle of discarded jewellery found at the bottom of a jewellery box.  To me it represents an intriging past life and the promise of discovery - each piece is like treasure to me.

 

 

Love working with silver - so shiney and soft, wirework is such a pleasure.  Both these pairs of earrings are made from repurposed sterling silver necklaces.  Oviously the posts are brand new.

Both pairs contain semi precious gemstones.
