Silver River Jewelry

Today, I am promoting a very special shop. I have chosen this shop to promote for the next couple of days because I feel that she deserves this attention. Above are some examples of her work.
From the Artisan:
Fine artisan jewelry made with a variety of techniques including wire wrapping, metal smithing and lapidary (rocks). I make elegant, affordable, well made jewelry with a touch of whimsy
Artisan's Bio:
I have a passion for my family, the outdoors and designing jewelry. I am also an avid reader and enjoy being on the water. I love summer and am not so thrilled with winter (this is an issue since I live in Ohio lol!).

I love what I do. For me the whole process is fascinating. It is like treasure hunt, from finding the perfect combination of stones or beads, to manipulating the metal with hammer and fire. Digging a stone out of the ground that looks like nothing special only to open it up and find beauty inside. There is something elementally satisfying in that.

Sterling Silver Dangle Anklet

Originally I had made this anklet for my sister-in-law. She really loved the colors of this and the fact that it was so versatile. She could wear this when she dressed up or when she was just going to the to the store for groceries. It is very elegant, but also very practical for the every day wear.
I have take a .925 sterling silver diamond chain and attached white freshwater cultured pearls, clear AB swarovski crystals, and Indian sapphire swarovski crystals. Each piece that is attached I have used .925 sterling silver eye pins. Each set that dangles from the chain is accented with sterling silver spacer beads. To finish this anklet, I have used a sterling silver lobster clasp.
I have added a 2" extension to this anklet, because the size of anklet vary so much. At the end of this extension I have added a similar version of all of the separate sections that dangle from the anklet. The original length of the anklet is about 9" and with the extension it measures about 12". Should you have any questions or comments, please let me know. Happy Shopping!!! What would you like to see next? earrings? necklace? bracelet? anklet? let me know...

********Mothers Day is on May 10th********

Check out My Newest Pair of Earrings

So these are my newest creation. I have used Blue Capri and Clear AB Swarovski Crystals. The chain used for these earrings is .925 sterling silver. I really like these earrings because they are not really long but they are just long enough to accent your face. I almost kept these for myself instead of putting them into my shop. My daughter told me that I wasn't willing to let her have the Twilight bracelet that I made then I wasn't able to keep these for myself. LOL So here they are, gorgeous and stunning!! Please feel free to let me know what you think of these. These can be found at my art fire shop.
