tic-tack

Here is my entry for the friendly challenge proposed by Erin "treasures found, inspiration is everywhere" "Inspired by...Hardware Stores"


 From this simple long tack I have developed a pair of earrings.



freshwater beads, seed beads and green & white shells . Strange no?
******************************************************************

Here is what I started from rusty wire (varnished, not unsightly discoloration on the skin)


I enjoyed doing the sort of nest in the center. I think continue making more of these nests / rings, created last night I do not know how!

Thank you for all your lovely comments on my last post !! i'm so glad!!
à bientôt!!

littles pendants.

A "house"'s necklace ,  inspired by the "belle armoire jewelry" 's tutorial (thank you Sharon!! so much to learn!!!) ... but ... I as like to put each thing in its box, I added a box under the roof





Turquoise, freshwater pearls and opals.Vintage image, and a very little bottle caps..
*******************

I continued the soldering work , but these little pendants are presently in phase of tampering with the green patina ..
I'll show you later. I want something to be very aged .. we'll see






             18 gau copper sheet and  pieces of  vintage jewels.. all soldered with my new (and fist) torch !! ofered by my sweet friend Véronique from narrative jewelry!! not perfects pictures but soon the finished project!
