The Holly (but sadly not Ivy)

Although I've been a bit naughty and not been posting much (any) new work I'm here to atone for it by showing you some of the goodies I have for the Christmas event I'm taking part in this weekend!

These are (top to bottom) the Fuchsia and Fuchsia/Jay earrings I made as part of my Metamorphosis of Nature project, Holly earrings and some special new surprise rings exclusively available at said event.

They are a 6mm wide silver band and have I & G stamped onto them.
(I honestly didn't put this picture in to show that I do occasionally have hands that aren't covered in dye!)

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Had a fun little afternoon making some more earrings - festive themed holly ones this time!












All hand made out of a combination of silk twill and silk organza ready for your next festive occasion.

Fuchsia-Jay

Had a busy morning printing the rest of my petals to turn into flowers, hopefully I should have enough cos I'm looking forward to a rest from printing and having normal coloured hands!

I did have a bit of time free at the end of the day to play with some very nice silks I'd dyed and made some Fuchsia's but they were coloured like a blue jay...

The big one is for my neckpiece and I got so excited after I'd made it I had to make some little ones for earrings!

New Stuff :)

I've been super busy today (which is like being normally busy but I was wearing a cape :) ), I had quite a bit to do today anyway for deadline on Monday but we had meetings all day which was rather annoying - but I still managed to get some stuff done. Here are some of the things I made from those feathers I was making earlier:

Ta Daaaaa, I do quite like them. They are (Left to Right) earrings, necklace, necklace, brooch, table top ornament.
I've still got a few more at College to do some stuff with and might make some more over the weekend (who needs sleep?) so there's something a bit less expensive than Azadi for people to buy. I showed the earrings to one of the girls in my house and she's already bagsied them for after I've handed in!
