2nd Etsy metal clay charm swap

I received my charms the other week for our second swap. I love them all, so beautiful!
Thanks to Evelyn for lending me this pic of her finished charm bracelet, how awesome does it look!

Charmed

I am taking part in a second Etsy Metal Clay charm swap, mine are all done and dusted and on there way to the States. I can't wait to see what everyone else has made!
My charms are cherry blossoms, coloured with pencils and little rhodonite beads attached.  I hope you like them. :)

EMC Charms

I haven't actually written about the charms that I recieved in the Etsy Metal Clay charm swap.  I got mine a bit later than everyone else as I was moving abroad and I didn't want them to get lost in transit!
Each of us involved made a set of charms using either silver, copper of bronze clay and we made a couple of extra ones for charity.  One of the bracelets went to the Hearts for Haiti shop on Etsy and pretty much sold right away which was awesome.  Here is a pic of the charms I made and another pic of the finished bracelet that went to Hearts for Haiti.  Thanks to Ruth for the finished bracelet pic :)

EMC charms, Done!

Here are my charms all comeplete for the EMC team charm swap, just need to get them packed up and across the pond, yay! Im so excited about receiving a charm from everyone, it is going to be the coolest bracelet.

I forgot to add that they are made from copprclay with little silver butterflies and sterling silver jump rings.

I havent made much this past week, well for more Etsy shop anyway. I have just been working on my charms for the EMC swap and they are nearly done, just waiting or the jump rings to arrive and then they can be assembled. You can see by the photos what a big old mess firing copper makes in my kiln, ugh.
I also have a cake topper order which needs starting this week as the wedding is in a months time but I am off on my hols so need to get it done before then.

Im Back

After being ill for the last 2 weeks and being away visiting my sister for her graduation, I am now back working away, yay!
I have a couple of photos to share, one is a daisy ring I made for myself from PMC, which I love and I thought turned out really well. I also have a pic of the cake topper I made for my sisters graduation cake.
Now I need to get cracking on my charms for the EMC charm swap, I have decided to make mine from Copprclay combined with silver, just need to wait for the supplies to arrive now!

York, haunted & charms!

I have just got back from my weekend away in York which was lovely, got to spend some time with Dom's son James which was nice. While we were in York we had lunch at "The Golden Fleece" pub which is supposed to be the most haunted Inn in York and dates back to 1503. I love watching ghostly programs like TAPS and most haunted which the Golden Fleece has been featured on so it was really exciting to have lunch there, didn't see anything though :(

On another note I am really excited to be involved in a charm swap with other members of the Etsy Metal Clay team. 24 people are involved so we are make 24 charms and then we all have a charm bracelet with a charm from each member. It is a great way to have a little piece of everyones work and I am really looking forward to the finished results so I will post updates on that project as I start making my charms.
