Work in Progress Wednesday - a custom made lucky charm for Delilah
I love making jewelry for friends. This one's for my playmate, Delilah, whose everlasting support of my art I'm very grateful for. Thank you, mon amie, for appreciating my shiny silver artz.
So, according to her request, she wanted a little horseshoe-shaped pendant with a specific inspirational quote stamped in it. Here it is, made this morning, with love and friendship, all while in my pajamas.
Materials in sterling silver:
10 gauge square wire, rolo chain, 20 gauge round wire.
Stamping the words.
Halfway to finished.
Drilling holes.
Soldering jump rings.
All done!
The front.
Reversible and extendable -
the back is plain, and the chain can be worn at 16" or 18"

(that means the end, en francais) Hope you're all having a great middle of the week! Toodle-oo for now.
xoxo,
Alice (aka Alicia, making the slow and bumpy transition back to my real name)

Very lovely blog.
Oooh! I love it! I am especially loving the way you made the chain so versatile ... with your lovely poppy to boot!
Wow, that is really cool!

That just kicks so much a$$ that I have no words, and you know how rare that is.
Merci beaucoup, mon amie. C'est vraiment magnifique, ca.
Your work is amazing :) All those fine details intricately performed, you must have a wonderfully steady hand :)
I am sure I would drill holes where they were not needed :(
Have a good evening, regards T. :)
great photos.... and lovely necklace too!
Awesome work Alicia, and OMG, a Firefly line to boot!
Thanks, everyone!
Jhenah, I think I'm going to start making all my chains extendable. It's just easier for everyone that way, you know?
Delilah, je t'en prie, cherie.
Virginia, what is a firefly line? :)
Very cute! And a lucky horseshoe too!
thank you for voting for my tree! I will let her know she has one vote, it snowed yesterday and she looked quite sweet singing to the new flakes falling gently on her branches. xxx
Love it girlie it's really great! Have a good week how's my little miss grace with her pretty curls?
