Swapped: evarevolver and thelacystar


Swap between evarevolver and thelacystar


This little star has a nose in the cloud. It has lightweight (20g) made with old technology called spun cotton toys. Measured 16 cm (6,3 inch) tail
5 cm with wide (2 inch) high approximately.

A wooden horse artist mannequin with real horsehair as tail.
Because the horse is posable, it is difficult to measure, but it is about 13 - 14 inches high (33 - 35.5cm).

63. I swap: Electrik Circuit Necklace


by Thelacystar


About

This necklace was handcrafted out of 100% sterling silver components, though 100% recycled. There is one new glass tube bead, and one new hand carved (in a sacred lotus shape) quartz crystal bead.

It is 3cm high and 2.75cm across. The chain is 45cm long.

I made this necklace because I was inspired by technology and circuitry...I watched the original TRON movie. It was really good!
I enjoyed making this necklace because the materials have very different texture; the chain is dangly, the wire is very hard and sleek, the bead is round and lumpy, and the middle piece of sterling it just slightly carved. It came out just how I saw it in my head.

I am open to suggestions, but have sensitivity to wool and certain metals:)

42. I swap: Necklace and earring set


by Thelacystar


About

It is a necklace and earring set made of beautiful agate and fluorite. For the necklace, I used Beadalon "7 strand" nylon coated beading wire, sterling silver plated crimp beads and sterling silver (925) rings and clasps as closing. The earrings are the same stones and are 100% sterling silver.

The earrings are about 1 inch (2.5 cm) long, not including the hooks and the necklace is 26.5 inches (67 cm)long. One has a loop endpin, the other a ball, I thought it would give it just a little extra character. If you would prefer them both the same, I can do that for you:)

I really love this necklace because if the combination of colours! The yellows, greys, greens and whites of the rough-cut agate go so nicely with the yellows, greens and purples of the fluorite diamonds. I bought the beads on separate occasions and was delighted to find them go together so well! A craftpersons best moments are these!

I am very open, but I really love knit and crochet jewelry:) Please note that I have metal allergies (sterling and gold are ok) and wool allergies! Cranberries as well but I doubt I would be trading for cranberries on this site:)
