Lovely ceramics on this bracelet, plus rubber O rings and glass spacers.  The creamy ceramics are shaped like little eggs and have lovely detail.    I can't decide what to call this one yet...

Lock em up ...

Quite proud of this one.  Makes me feel like putting a lovely cashmere jumper on whilst drinking hot chocolate by the fire (mmmm...pity I don't actually own ANY cashmere jumpers..... or a log fire for that matter).

Tea Garden Bracelet

The matching bracelet with a lovely filigree by Vintaj Brass Co.

Caramel Fudge Earrings

Gorgeous colours here, fudge coloured freshwater pearls and little caramel spacers with the holes drilled off -centre so they stagger from side to side (as per kidney seed beads).  The pink lustre cube has been attached to the wire wrapped section and I have used a file to etch some of the patina to give an antique copper look (just on the wire).  They are so lovely in person.  I'm very proud of these ones!
