A few of my recent pieces. Pretty much out of supplies. :{
Items on the left are pins and the pieces on the right are barrettes.

A few months ago, I handmade these faces using polymer clay. Good to finally have a use for them. Really thought they were neat but had no real use for them, until now... Top piece is a barrette, the bottom (Silver Moon Goddess) is a brooch pin.

This scarab is also handmade with polymer clay. This is a large barrette that really makes a fashion statement. I like this because it reminds me a little bit of a pineapple.

These angels (or fairies) are so elegant. The bottom one is a barrette and the top is a matching pin. The pin is particularly unique because there's a spoon's handle for the base, covering up the metal barrette! To off-set the asymmetrical shape of the spoon, I placed the angel off-center too.

These are fun silver pieces. The top is a barrette and is a mix of antiqued plated silver and a small ring of a brass tone.
The bottom is a butterfly brooch pin made of antiqued silver plated pieces.

You can find some of these pieces either on Etsy or on Bonanzle's site.


Hope you liked these pieces of jewelry art. I had so much fun creating them!!!
