Layers of riveted metal with rich patinas clutch large stones in these romantic statement pieces. Full of nostalgia and sentiment, the one of a kind statement pieces found in the Rosewater Collection are meant to be given as tokens of affection and passed down for generations.

The Rosewater Collection is available now in my Etsy Shop.

3xR Week 6

This week I wanted to take the challenge as far as I could, so utilized the scrap left over from last weeks posts to create this weeks pair.

Last weeks posts:



The scrap that was left over:






This weeks pair:




All that's left now are the filings. I swept them up and dumped them in my filings jar. I'll most likely be melting them into balls to use for accents at some point. It feels really good to be using every last little bit!

You can check out what the other 3xR artists are making over at the 3xR 2014 Flickr group or  snatch up this weeks pair of posts over at my Etsy shop!

3xR Week 5

Another week of the 3xR challenge, another trip down memory lane. This week I pulled out the leftovers from a pendant I created during a workshop two years ago.


The silver sheet that I cut the tabbed back from was so cool I hung on to it and I've pulled it out more than once hoping to be inspired.


This time I figured it out.

A pair of very dangerous looking posts. 

Check out the rest of the Flickr 3xR (reduce, recycle, reuse) challenge to see what the other artists are up to, or stop by my Etsy shop to take a closer look at these earrings.
