Sign of Life



After a long absence at last a sign of life. I have not been very productive lately, but hope to make amends over the winter.
Not that I have been completely idle. I am working on a thingy for a contest at the Beadwork Forum and that one is coming on nicely but no pics allowed.
And I have been playing with wire. Wire is such a nice change from squinting at thread that just won't go through a needle and teenie tiny beads that fall all over the place.
Here are two things I made.
First there's the last one :), a freeform with a glass opalite-esque bead, a chip of some light green stone and some glass beads.

The other one is a bracelet made of jasper beads and copper wire. The copper has aged nicely, I like it looking dull like this for now but who knows I might polish it up and make it shine.

And now you also know what book I have been reading lately:))) Tiffany rocks!
