Chandeliers

Another request was for me to put chandeliers on my blog - most of the pictures of the ones I used to make have disappeared into the mists of time (or albums) but I just quickly took a few pics of the ones I have in the flat now - you may see some earrings hanging on one or two of them because that's where I keep my earrings!   Easy to find, and are pretty when they are not being worn.   It was mainly to show that I use things like silver toast racks (removable for cleaning!) and silver spoons.   My favourite one is still the very first one I made, that is now living in Canada.

Oh, I've put in a couple of candlesticks as well..








Silver jewellery

This is a request - I have been asked to put some of my silver jewellery on my blog.   So here goes :  quite a lot of pendants have gone as I gave some away as presents at my last birthday!  However I think there are more than enough here.
 Pendant - silver mouse in the grass, on copper background
 Pendant star and moons, with moon earrings
 Copper and silver pendant
Silver earrings
 Silver crown ring with copper lining
 Silver and felt pendant
Copper peapod pendant with silver peas

smaller copper peapod necklace with silver peas
and felt peas
 Silver boat with gold bar, with a wavy setting - pendant
 copper and silver pendant
Silver bird, sun, etc, pendant on copper background

Two silver birds
on curved copper background, to give impression of flight.  Pendant
 A silver bangle with four different ornate designs.
 Silver 'fish' bangle

Heavy silver bangle

 Silver bangle with leaves and tendrils
 My two favourites are these last two - this one above is a necklace of silver with a glass bead that I made on a weekend course
and this one is silver moons (the one on the right in outline, the one of the left solid) set with three glass beads, the top one is a bit splodgy because it was the first one I made!  It was a weekend course made in heaven (who would have thought a load of glass rods could be turned into beads).
