I love productive days

Phew! It's been a busy day.

I spent 10, that's right TEN solid hours in my studio today, creating one commissioned piece after another with my nimble little fingers. And boy am I happy with how they've turned out.

Hands at work

In the coming days I'll blog about the different projects that my lovely customers have been asking me to make for them.

Custom commissioned design - Infinity anagram necklaces

But today I present to you these 2 "infinity" anagram necklaces, commissioned by fellow Mom Blogger, Gina, who has been so great to work with (check out her blog Stumbling & Bumbling). She provided me with the design and lettering (which is always a good and welcomed thing), and asked if I could make her a couple of matching pendants.

Deeply etched in sterling silver, they were quite tricky to make, but I'm thrilled with how they turned out.

Thanks, everyone.

Kerry, I hear ya. Most of my days are just like that. This weekend I just handed my toddler over to my husband and shut myself away.

Ciao, Marco! Nice to see you here :)

I just wanted to take the opportunity to rave once again about the infinity anagram pendants. I love, love, love how they turned out. Its so nice to see something you've imagined become reality because of a skilled artist like you, Alicia.
My sincerest thanks to you and your "nimble little fingers"!
And thank you Alyssa from Simply Sparkles for introducing me to Alicia!
