Sneaky Previews

I have had most of these items hidden behind the scenes for quite some time now, though you may have spotted a few here and there in previous posts. My lack of decent, cohesive photographs was making me very reluctant to list the items and as I worked on the pictures the collection grew.

Finally I now have the pictures I need so these items will be going in my Etsy shop later today and over the next few days. To see them first, just scroll down :)

These earrings are inspired by the smooth, curving shapes found in nature. The design is quite simple, with just 2 pieces of shaped, copper wire held together with 2 small, gold wire wraps, but the effect is beautiful

Very similar in design to the previous pair, these earrings feature a very slight difference in shape to the wire which results in a very different style. The wire wrap on these is a dark grey instead of gold.

Another design inspired by flowing, graceful curves, this one is even simpler but very striking. A small glass crackle dangles from the loop and a delicate, matching wire-wrap accents the middle.

One of the first pieces to use my new stock of gemstone beads, these are a more decorated take on my popular copper earrings. This pair features small, green aventurine nuggets wrapped around the inside of the loop and reminds me of a geode.

Another gemstone piece, this pendant's warm autumn glow comes from small, round carnelian beads. The pointed marquise shape is softened with a spiral in the centre, from which a larger carnelian bead hangs. Gold-coloured wire is used for the wrapping to create a trio of warm colours.

This pendant was featured in yesterday's blog, though in a different shade of wire wrapping. This piece uses inward curving swirls but follows the flowing shapes of the earrings shown above. It reminds me of a Venus Fly Trap!

Instead of small gemstone beads wrapped into the shape, I've used a large, Jasper coin bead as a focal point for this pendant and continued the black theme using annealed steel wire for the wrapping.

Another pure wire pendant, this piece has a very curved shape, accentuated with very delicate, peacock blue wire wrapping.

I have a few more pieces I can't wait to show you but a few still aren't ready and this post is long enough already! Once I get these pieces listed I will work on another preview post for the remaining items.
