I can’t believe it’s the weekend already!   Fall is a really great time in the studio for me.  Time just flies and that is such a good feeling.  I spend the day dreaming, working, creating, and the next thing I know I’m holding a big handful of sparkly new jewelry waiting for their new home…A quick look at the clock and it’s time to head back up to tend to life and pour a glass of wine.  Now that’s a good day!

Have a great weekend!

The stones are (clockwise from the top): Green Sea Glass, Arizona Turquoise, Aqua Chalcedony, Smoky Quartz

Bezels all done ready for backplates and shanks…

Even though the rings are all for different people - I was loving how all the colors just looked so beautiful together

Backplates on, sanded, cleaned, ready for shanks…

Finished settings just out of the tumbler ready to hold their new stones…

All done!

I still have to finish the Turquoise ring, but here are the other 3…

Smoky Quartz Ring for Michelle

Aqua Chalcedony Ring for Erin

Sea Glass Ring for Erin

I love that Erin found some sea glass and asked if I could set it for her.  It turned out beautifully.  Do you have a found object you’d like to wear on your finger or around your neck?
