Indian Feather Earrings ~ Prototype

Yeh, yeh ....it's a holiday tomorrow (14/1/11, Hari Keputeraan Tuanku Yang Di-Pertua Besar Negeri Sembilan) and straight 3 days of rest.
Did not do much crafting since the school semester started, and I discovered that I've been a bit lazy after laying off the projects on my "Will Do/To Do" list. Anyway, I am still trying to adjust myself and hope to be back crafting in no time.
By the way, here's something that I'd like to share with you. It's called Indian Feather Earrings, named by it's Polish designer, Iza Malcyzk who has a few other tutorials on her website (www.izamalcyzk.com)


Crafted with Natural Copper Anti-tarnish Artistic Wire and Swarovski Pearls.
Measurement: Length is approximately 2.6" (6.7cm), without ear wires.

Do they resemble our Petronas Twin Towers?

Chinese New Year is just around the corner and looks like I'll be busy preparing for the coming festival.
Hope to get an opportunity to find some time to start crafting again after the Chinese New Year.
Until then.... have a nice week ahead as well as a very Happy & Prosperous Chinese New Year to one and all.

2011.... A New Year Begins

Hi, I hope it's still not too late to wish everyone who's reading this a very Happy New Year.
The new year school semester has started and it's time to hit the books again........well, not for me, of course, but my three children. The eldest and the youngest will be sitting for their SPM and UPSR respectively, and the other boy in Form 2. Luckily, all three of them are in the morning session, so I shall have some peace and tranquil to carry out the house chores.
The last school holiday last month was meant for my children but not necessarily a holiday for their mother. As a homemaker, our list of chores are endless and work never ceases.

These top and bottom pictures were taken during peak periods after school hours and it get's chaotic whenever it rains. Normally, i'll wait until all the cars are almost out of the school compound (pic below) only then I will fetch my daughter.


So, not to waste my time while waiting, I always have some magazines in the car to accompany me. It does not matter whether they've been seen many, many times, I still enjoy reading the issues.



And for me, it's back to work, work and more work and hopefully,
I can get some crafting done again after quite an absence.

New Year resolutions?
Nope, I don't make resolutions that I can't fulfil.
I guess I have some things in my "To Do List" and
there's lots of them but my priority is to the family.
I am just hoping that one fine day in the near future,
I would have more time to concentrate on my passion.

I hope I didn't bore you with my ramblings, though. It's suppose to be a short update on some wire crafting project but at the moment, my rambling is the only thing I can share.

Until then...........

Thanks for dropping by and for taking the time to read this =)

wish you all a magical festive season filled with loving wishes and beautiful thoughts and may the year 2011 bring tidal wave of love, happiness and bright futures.

Agatha Earrings

I'm back with this newly completed pair of earrings, made with love, passion and patience.
I named it Agatha so that it's easy for me to remember the name and
because it's adorned with
Banded Agate Gemstone 20mm round bead,
Carnelian as well as Swarovski Crystals.
Each gemstone piece is natural, therefore no two pieces are alike.
I've also used Natural Copper Artistic Wire to craft this earring.




Remake of this design is possible with the availability of materials used above.

Another Mookaite Carved Flower .... Bracelet (Personal Collection)

So.... this is the bracelet I completed and mentioned earlier and is ready to be worn by me =)
Once again, I used Gun Metal Artistic Wire to bring out the colours of the gemstones that I've used to adorn this bracelet. It's a bit of hard work here doing the frames and the netting for the background, and not to mention the amount of wire used but it's worth my time and energy. I so like this very much! And I hope you do, too.







Thanks for looking!

More of Mookite Carved Flower Pendant - Consignment Piece

Today is Sunday and I don't have to cook. Just for today, I'll "ta pau" and it's not
that I do this very often though. The children and my nieces are out to watch "Narnia"
and my whole house is like so quite, except for the sound from the tv and
the queen mother (aka my mum) watching the program, C.S.I.
You must be wondering why I am making a repetition of this. Well........ I like the carved flower too much to stash it away ;). Oh... by the way, there's more to come... in the form of a bracelet
which I made for myself.

This one' s adorned with Mookite Gemstone but of a different colour combination, of red and yellow.
The focal bead is accompanied by turquoise, carnelian, coral, Czech leave beads as well as onyx.
I've used Gun Metal Artistic Wire and a matching viking knitted rope necklace to go with the pendant.
Thanks for looking!
