Handmade Wire Jewelry ~ Wire Wrapped Black Obsidian Filigree Brooch

9th November, 2012 (Friday) @ 3.33pm





Crafted with gunmetal artistic wire, this Black Oval Obsidian &  Oriental Crystals (donut shape in white/orange) was stitched onto the netted background of the oval frame.  I then coiled a considerable length of wire to make interconnecting loops to make the filigree-like design for the top and bottom sections.  

Measurement
4.2cm x 3.2cm

Do email me if you're interested.

Handmade Wire Jewelry ~ Chainmaille Bracelets

23rd October, 2012 @ 4.33pm

Completed these chainmaille bracelets recently.  The rings on the bracelets are handmade and not store-bought.  It takes a lot of time to coil the wire, cut, twist to open and close each ring and get them connected into a design. These bracelets are finished off with handforged clasp.
    They can be made into a ring, necklace, pendant and many more.  


Inca Puno or Box Chainmaille Bracelet
 with Banded Agate Gemstone Focal Bead.


In the same style but much more simple without the bead.



Two other designs (top & bottom) with 4mm cube glass beads. 
 Beads can be substituted with pearls, crystals or gemstone beads.

Handmade Wire Jewelry ~ Turquoise Filigree Earrings

21st October 2012, Sunday @ 4.36pm

Hi ya, dear.  Woohoo.... it's raining very heavily outside now and as I can remember the rain came pouring down daily for the past two weeks.  I am contemplating on whether to take a short nap or continue with wire jewelry crafting.  In addition, have to think of how to incorporate beads into a "masculine" type for bracelets.  

Anyway, here's my latest design .... Turquoise Filigree Earrings done in Natural Copper.


Measurement of filigree component  ~  3.6cm x 2.5cm 
Measurement from top of ear wire to bottom of filigree component ~ 5.2cm

This pair will be made upon request.
 Please allow a few days for me to complete them before despatch. 
 Contact me via email or facebook should you have any questions/inquiries.

A little bit of this and a little bit of that ....

7th October, 2012 (Sunday)

Hi ya, dear.  I know I've been a bit lagging behind in updating my blog as I've been extremely busy (the same excuse, again but it's true!)  and maybe some of you may think that I've stopped blogging/updating my blog for good.  

Many things that been struck off from my "Things To Do" list and I am satisfied and happy to say that I've come out with tutorials for my Beginner's Wire Jewelry Class which I conducted from home.  I also submitted two wire jewelry tutorials recently to Ms Jane Chew of www.Handmade-Jewelry-Club.com

Sunburst Earrings Tutorial

Victoria Rose Earrings Tutorial

So, if you're interested in learning the above, kindly visit www.DiyBeadingClub.com to purchase it.  

I have two free tutorials here in my blog, filed under earring and ring respectively for beaded ear studs & adjustable beaded ring.  

Planning to write further tutorials for my Intermediate Level Wire Jewelry Class as well as for submission to Jane.  I wonder what was I thinking when I said "yes' to Jane when she asked me whether I could submit further tutorials.    

Now ... have to go back to my "To Do List" right after this and put on my thinking cap on what jewelry tutorial to do next.  

Thanks for reading this post and have a wonderful weekend, everyone!

Beginner's Wire Jewelry Class

23rd September 2012 (Sunday)

Conducted another Beginner's Class today for Ms Kogila.  She initially had her jewelries made by me but somehow or rather she got very interested and wanted to learn from me.  She completed her tasks in about four and a half hours based on my tutorials and is seen here crafting the earrings.

Thanks for reading this and have a wonderful and productive week ahead.

Beginner's Wire Jewelry Class


21st September, 2012 (Friday)

I conducted a Beginner's Wire Jewelry Class last Monday for Puan Nurbaini.  She "found" me while surfing the net for handmade jewelries and asked whether I could arrange a class for her.  Since I had conducted two classes previously, Puan Nurbaini was very excited when I said yes.   It took me quite a while to write two tutorials as I was also preoccupied with other things.    On the day of the arranged date, she took less than 4 hours to finish the bracelet and earrings, considering that she had zero wire experience.  These are photos that I took of her in full concentration and of her work.

Alrite, back on track to my "To Do List" and thank you for dropping by. 
 Have a wonderful week!
