out of touch
Have been moving & closing the family home for the past many weeks, am now settled into my new home and horrified at how many boxes of jewelry supplies I have (and books, but that's another story), I did weed out 'crappy' beads, but still too much, will have to reorganize it all eventually...looking forward to setting up my new work table in front of my sunny kitchen window, will post pix when done (don't expect to see them for a long time!)

Life changes...
Been sick for two weeks and am facing the fact that I must move soon and pack up all my beads...actually they're packed already, tried to be organized about it, but don't have the energy right now to dig through containers and create anything, am trying to look forward to my future 'studio', wherever that may be...

Antique Book Pendant
Using pages from an 1834 Penny Magazine book, I construct a pendant by sandwiching a 1 x 1 inch piece of the magazine (actually a book) between glass, then soldering and adding a sterling silver loop that will work with a chain or neckwire. Each pendant is unique as these are NOT scans, but pieces of history...
See these pendants on my etsy site:
