I thought I would show you my first bracelet that I made yesterday. Its only silver plated wire that I got for practice, but I really enjoyed learning on this. I even made my own jump rings  I feel quite proud that I made everything on this bracelet, wirework, clasp and beads. (apart from the seed beads)

The necklace is made from my own beads to match a bracelet and earrings that have already gone to the same lady. The crystal bracelets are the third and fourth that the customer has had for herself and as presents. The same lady has just ordered two Swarovski pendants and a couple of handknitted scarves as well.! url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/51975739@N05/5407605766/]  [/url] P010211_12.35 by CARRIE&CO, on Flickr Carrie x

I very rarely make anything for myself, but since all the ops on my face and neck I can't comfortably wear all my lovely dangly earrings any more, so I've been living in the same pair of little diamond studs for months now. Not good enough, I thought, so I now have a pair of proper earrings set with some just delicious fused dichroic cabochons from the lovely and talented JulieHB. And I love 'em! my earrings by mizgeorge, on Flickr Thank you so much Julie for the cabs - they're just perfect, and perhaps my favourite colour in the whole world

I made this bracelet this afternoon with some of my heart decorated beads, fritties and sterling silver beads and heart toggle. I may send it to a friend who is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer, I think she would like it. Thanks for looking! (Struggled to get good photos, the light here is really bad today.)

I was asked to produce a bracelet that had to be amber.  This has been etched and will find out tomorrow if they like it.

Well first one that looks half like a commercial one  As opposed to my patented bung on the beads and knot method  I know the photoshop is rubbish (just blurring and brightening yada yada yada) but couldn't be bothered getting out the graphics tablet!!  Didn't post this in the gallery because it's my first one  A massive thanks to a special someone who wishes to remain nameless out of modesty for the greek ceramic spacers and cord- they're fantastic!!!  DSC00442 by DeanWilson, on Flickr DSC00444 by DeanWilson, on Flickr and I slid them off the cord and just thought they looked cool  DSC00446 by DeanWilson, on Flickr Dean  ETA: Thanks Lesley for moving it!!  Never has any 'Finished Jewellery' to show before!!  x

Okay okay I'll stop making topics and just post in the gallery  This is my last, I promise  Made a bracelet there...and this time it's in the right place as it is actually finished  Chuffed to bits as it actually looks like a proper bracelet- it has a catch and all- it stays on your wrist without a tight knot or cord dangling down round you- a Dean Wilson first!!  Frenchie mentioned wooden spacers...so I cut up a necklace I got from peacocks I think that was all tiny wooden beads and they look quite cool!  Anyway here it is  firstly without the catch.. DSC00450 by DeanWilson, on Flickr DSC00447 by DeanWilson, on Flickr and the catch  DSC00451 by DeanWilson, on Flickr the bead that's on the end of the bracelet in the last photo DSC00458 by DeanWilson, on Flickr and here's a way to use up my ivory spacers eh? and the wooden ebads look quite nice here  DSC00456 by DeanWilson, on Flickr although there's one tiny problem...It's only about the size of a big keyring  The dark ivory is courtesy of the amazing Rachel, thank you so much!  I'm afraid I don't have any lovely DH beads to show as whilst trying to strike (damn impossible on a hot head!  can't get it white hot, just orangy  ) they cracked! Anyway onwards and sideways will have another go tomorrow  Dean  x
