Handmade Monday

Inspired by 1stuniquegifts Handmade Monday I thought I should let you know 'what I have made this week'!!

My main achievement was to complete a challenge set by Linda Jones of the Wireworkersguild blog

Make a piece that can be repeated.

So here is my pendant







here is the pattern in a chain


When I mirrored the pattern I tried the idea of a teardrop






but settled on a central bead.


The earrings and evil eye necklace are available for sale on my shop Polly Polkadot

  2. Wow! I was surprised how different the shape looks when turned on its' side, and how combining several of them can have such a different effect. I like the 'chain' version best I think!

  3. Lovely swirlies, the plain pendant looks so pretty, it's really good photographed against the blue too.

  5. I love how the same design is used in different ways and takes on such a different look - a great success, I think!

    Many thanks for taking part in Handmade Monday on my blog x

  7. Very delicate looking and like you I think the stone looks best within the swirls. hugs Mrs A.

  8. I've often tried wire jewellery... only to have to kind of use the twisted rubbish I've produced as some kind of hidden bin thing ;)

    These are really nicely designed! Glad someone has the touch!

  9. Thanks for all your lovely comments.
    This is the first time I've tried to make a design work in so many different ways.
    Normally I have made my mind up before I start - so there is definately a very good learning point for me there.
