What’s New {a quick one}

Have you seen the latest issue of Step by Step Wire Jewelry?  Gracing the cover is the beautiful wirework of -your friend and mine – Jeanette Blix Ryan!  Jeanette’s wire spirals are made with such precision.   All of her jewelry is made with attention to detail.  I’ve been lucky to see this great piece in person.  Now if only my copy of this issue would arrive, I’d love to see it in person too!  By the way, I think this is one of my favorite SBS Wire covers – the colors are so fresh and I just love the whole layout.

I have a sweet Spring woodland bracelet to share today…. each component handmade by well-known artists.  Just look at the adorable owl here – by LeAnn Weih of Summers Studio.  Have you seen the adorable beads coming from her studio lately (birdies, owls, and now *sigh* bunnies)?  I have something special planned with one of her new birdie beads…but I’ll have to wait to share that with you!   This bracelet also includes pretty porcelain links by Melanie Brooks of Earthenwood Studios.  And I just love to add lampwork beads by Moon Stumpp to my jewelry – the depth in her beads are just amazing.  There you have it…. a bracelet with an all-star cast! 🙂

Have a GREAT weekend!

Love your bracelet! I thought the bracelet on was done by you at first. Your wire work is just as precise!
