More and more…

I’ve been making a bunch of new pieces, but I haven’t sold anything in awhile, and it’s making me a bit less motivated.  I’ll get over it ; )
There are so many new things…I’ll just put some small photos on the post. That’ll work, right? Right.  They’re all steampunk pieces.
(Monopoly anyone? )
I looovve this one.  The propeller is spinable.

I got to work!

After receiving a shipment of various findings (Christmassssss), I made a couple of new pieces.

Not much to say…had fun….endured some glue fumes….here they are…

I loovvve this necklace…It’s about 5″ wide.

I heart the art nouveau …ness of it. Also the watch movement–gorgeous!

These little brass wing castings are too cute. I added a tiny watch movement and put it all on an adjustable white gold base.

Inspired…

I had to get to work in order to post something new, right? I made this at 2 am last night this morning. I found the large gold thing at a thrift store…as I was checking out, the woman working asked if I knew what it was. No idea…Then I get the “Why the hell are you buying it” look. I HAVE A VISION! I didn’t. But it was funky, and I liked it. So, I took that…attached a pocket watch face…and attached a propeller to that. I can’t stop spinning it…It will be hard to part with -spinspinspin-. The random gold thing had three jump connections…so I made a gear connection thing…Yes. I think it might be a belt buckle…okay…done contemplating–here it is!

Newest Necklaces

I’ll post my most recent creations…
Alright this guy happened after staring at about 200 things scattered on a table…I spent about an hour picking up a random watch part…setting it on top of a pair of rusted scissors “No no…that’s not right.” It was probably pretty ridiculous to watch, but I’m super happy with the outcome. I made it to sit the first (horizontal) way. I was taking photos when my significant other tilted the pin and said “I like it this way better.” Oh the options!

This next one was inspired by my mom.
Mom-”You should make a lariat”

Me-”Okay”
Here it is I used an old rusty key (lacquered), a watch gear, and a pocket watch case. The key and gear are on one side, and the pocket it watch case is on the other.

Will I become addicted?

So, I make jewelry. Mostly steampunk inspired now (new obsession), but I also like making gross stuff out of polymer clay! Neat! I noticed that a lot of Etsy users, crafters, etc, have blogs. It seemed like a fun idea to post my newest creations…yes
