nightfox: (100 things challenge)



{Take the 100 Things challenge!}



So I have given in *shakes fist* Winterstorrm!! Anyway, my blog shall mostly be about my jewelry making, current projects and past as well as my Historical & Steampunk costume building hobby.



So I decided to start off with something I am currently working on. The first is a pic of the piece itself which will eventually become a necklace and the second pic is of each individual component before I put them together.





I think I am also going to enamel the leaves on the vine components (green of course). I shall either update you as I make progress or when the necklace is complete. It all depends on how motivated I am to photograph it!

Sorry that parts of the pics are fuzzy, these are directly scanned on a flatbed scanner.

If you want to see the actual details a little clearer, try using your zoom feature!

So this is my #1 out of the next 100!

This is going to be stunning when you finish. I love the colors and details.

Thank you! The enameling will be a bit of a b*tch but it usually turns out to be worth it. I have to do a few test pieces before I'll even touch the necklace components.

YES. You jumped on the bandwagon. :D. My mom makes jewelry too (and uses me as her own personal billboard). Do you sell your stuff or do you do it for fun?

I have at times done both. I am planning to start selling on Etsy (and maybe eBay again)very soon, now that I know my scanner is working once more :D

It's already gorgeous and it's not even done yet.

Thank you, muh darlin! There will probably be more pics of finished jewelry than the half-finished but I think I will also take some pics of pieces in progress so y'all can see how I actually make the stuff.

One down, 99 to go!

Thank you so much! I have to admit, I am growing fond of this one. I think it's going to remain mine rather than go to Etsy or a friend.

Wow that is great! You are freaking talented. I honestly adore the emerald.

Thank you my friend! I love working with greens, blues and amber the best but I do all sorts of colours and stones.

wow, this looks awesome!
I always admired people who have the skill to make something so beautiful. And with such tiny parts!!!

Thank you so much! Trust me, I started out as a kid with much bigger parts ;-) I got more dexterous as time went on.
