the OC collection....off center that is!

Just a peek for you of my new fused glass pendants! They are approximately 35mm in diameter and packed with personality..all on an 18" rectangle box chain. Now I normally hand-make my sterling chain, but I couldn't resist this unique box chain when I saw it on beadaholique.com one of my favorite sites to get supplies for my designs. [yes, one can become a "beadaholique"!]
Let's take a closer look at this fab chain!

These are quite great, if I do say so myself. If you would like to add one to your jewelry collection, just drop me a line via my site at caledonea.com. (remember, links to my site don't seem to work on blogger so just copy and paste the link into your browser and voila!) Cheers!

finger bouquet

I have noticed a lot of really BIG rings out there and since I have been designing these little [big] treasures for a few years now, I thought I might share a peek with you....
Yes, flowers for your fingers! I source out glass beads that are petal shaped and then using my wire like a thread, I "weave" the beads together, creating a flower. Then I add my sterling wire wrapped shank and ..voila!
Very chic I think! Next is my flameworked flower beads as rings...can't wait!
