New Maile (pics!)

These aren’t the best pictures. But they’re better than some… I’m going to see about getting better pictures of the dragonscale when I get home.

All the jewelry is up for sale on my Etsy, and any design can be duplicated with different colored beads and metals.

That’s a Captive Inverted Round weave using 8mm gunmetal rings and 6mm dark green beads.  I like it, but I think I’m going to make another one, but with 6mm rings and 4mm beads… and in silver, I find I like the silver better than gunmetal these days.

Those are the earrings to my flower bracelet.  I really like how they turned out… they look a lot heavier than they are.  (And isn’t it amazing that my phone takes nicer pics than my camera? o.O)

Dragonscale weave, gold plated rings.  I hate how these pictures turned out. x.x

 

I also did another captive weave, but I ended up giving the bracelet away to a friend.  I liked it, but I wanted to try a different twist on it.

I just need to figure out how to get allowed to put up a tent for Arts Walk or the holiday bazaars in October / November.

The first is my favorite. I could almost see myself wearing that! I love the trapped stones. Have you signed up for the Etsy emails? Those have tons of tips for getting good photos. I’ve found that a light box and macro are amazing things. My house is DARK (basement level condo) and it’s usually overcast on the few days I can go out to take photos. My cheap-o camera does well with the light box though. Lots of hugs, John
