Oooh, its a good day!

I have been so fortunate to have a few days off and my mind has been thinking of many different shapes.  I love the spiral Celtic, chaos and just never ending cycles...but I am also quite fond of the straight and narrow. So, I got out my tools and measured some wire and spent many hours pounding. I worked all day the first day and put it away after my arm felt like it was going to fall off!
I used argentium sterling silver, copper and gold filled.  I used a range of gauges from 12 gauge to 24 gauge. Here is some photos of what I did...

New work inspired by Beaufort, NC

These earrings are made with Argentium a tarnish resistant sterling silver or 14kt gold fill and natural stones. I am inspired by the golden sun and the ocean plus all the colors of the beaches and shells. I love it here!
