Flavours Exhibition

Have just now realised that I haven't posted any pictures of the jewellery I created for the Flavours Exhibition.Completed this bangle eventually. Was a bit of nightmare to manufacture, as the individual squares kept coming apart as I was bending it up. Worked it all out in the end! The little flowers on the sides are actually screws, the idea being that the perspex could be interchangeable, perhaps in different colours!
This is, by far, my favourite piece to date! I based it on the trend of wearing layered chains, but, of course, with a filigree twist!
The flowers on either side are identical. They're actually larger versions of my earrings. I call this my Hip-Hop Diva Neckpiece! Definitely Diva-licious!

I Have Jewellery (Almost)!!



I had actually forgotten to post about these earrings. They were started in March, and have been finished for a while, but I hadn't gotten around to taking the photos.



This bangle is still a work in progress. I like the overall impression, but I had problems with solder joins while bending it up. I decided to cast the frameworks for the elements to overcome this. The perspex is a bit stark against the delicate elements, and needs to be filed and, maybe, made thinner.



Funny story! I was in my bathroom the other day, when I realised that this is part of a tile! I guess it manifested itself in my subconscious, and voila!, it's found its way into my jewellery.
