...and Van Gogh thought HE had a blue period!!

Let me show you a couple of the new things I have just listed in my Etsy shop...there seems to be a blue theme going on. I have to laugh at myself sometimes, if you were to ask me which colour was my fave I would name all the other colours of the rainbow before I got to blue, yet when I'm in the 'zone' creatively speaking, blue is one of my main colours. All of my paintings seem to be essentially blue?!

Anyway, back to blue jewellery, I have had a weakness for labradorite(blue) and rainbow moonstones(blue) for ever. Take a look at my labradorite ring, made in silver with a touch of copper to emphasise the labradoressence.





On a square note,this ring is a smaller version of the celeste coloured one I made in the summer. Don't know whether I like the one inch square or the 3/4 inch square best, I just know that I'm so in love with the depth and vibrancy of coloured enamel.
See what you think

Release the inner magpie


Take a look at some of the vignettes I made today. These are domed copper discs enamelled in some of my fave shades...the red is one of my new acquisitions and she's gorgeous, just enough pink to be this season's hot colour.
The blue is the colour of Chip Foose's super-cars. The black is a deep dark assortment of blues and blacks that shimmer with the light.
The other one represents the sun and the moon in white and blue pearlescents.
I will be making settings for them over the next few days.

OMG I'm in a treasury!!

Fantastic news, I got an email today from a fellow etsian bearing the wonderful news that she had selected my frog enamel dish to be in her treasury. I am so thrilled.
I was in the forums at Etsy the other day and left my shop details on a thread asking if anyone was interested in being featured.
There were 105 posts on that thread, all wanting to be the proud owner of one of the 12 items included.
Check out the link, it will be there until Wednesday.
