Now, I'm not precisely what one would call a 'starving artist', as I'm slowly beginning to build up popularity in the small town I live in. However, I must admit, wire bending is something I truly enjoy, as I am a jewelry freak. It's awesome, because now instead of going to a shop and buying an expensive piece of jewelry, I can make it myself depending on what colors I want to go with.

So the fun part is mixing and matching beads with wire, or gemstones with wire colors, I could seriously go on, and on about this passion of mine.

Currently I'm working on a summer collection of jewelry, ranging from a mix and match earring set, to bracelets, and a couple necklaces. The summer collection hasn't been released yet, but I'm pretty excited with it, and I wanted to share my passion.

SO, Here's some of my works, as I figure I should actually share what I make:



8U SO, does anyone else like making jewelry? I'm going into learning how to set gemstones into rings and a few other things.

Haha, those take FOREVER to make. XD; The only thing on those I didn't make myself is the lobster clasp I use for them! They are surprisingly durable, and super fun to make once you get the hang of twisting the wire. :P

Yes, I actually do have an online store, haha.

People comment on my personal jewelry that I make myself, sometimes I'm just standing in line for like, ordering something to eat and someone will ask me where I bought it, and when I tell them I made it, I'm not sure they actually believe it. But, I love making jewelry, more then I ever thought I would.

-Squeal- I just got some lovely sterling silver wire! I'm so excited! :) I love working with wire, I wonder what kind of designs I'm going to come up with, once it gets here.

I'm probably going to take some advanced classes in a place in Eugene. They've got fabulous people, and beads, and supplies.

I'm just one of those people who just LOVE beads, I could live in a bead store, and happily, at that.

I'm more into beading than the actual wire bending. Most of the stuff I make I give away to friends and family so I don't have pictures to post... I just made this one for myself not to long ago.

I also enjoy making jewelry. I just bought some glass millefori beads. They just came in the mail today! It's like Christmas whenever I get some new jewelry parts.

I never really got into working with wire, but I think the things you made with the wire look really cool!
