mr frog and the rose garden bracelet

I keep making resin pieces and moving on to the next idea....
I made a mould of a frog from a little button I found.  Every time I have some left over resin I make a little frog!.
This one has been embedded in a resin heart, with some glitter to give a splash of sparkle!
My next project for Easy Craft Projects will be a photo charm bracelet.  The photo charms I made were of my son as a small child and I love it - been wearing the bracelet since I made it

After I'd written the project I decided to use the same idea to make another bracelet using our photographs.  We had a lovely afternoon last summer wandering round a walled rose garden - the scent was heady and overwhelming - I spent a few hours enjoying the roses while Nick took loads of photos.  I've used his photos in this bracelet with some flourite gemstones, amethyst chips and freshwater pearls
the mr frog necklace and rose garden bracelet have been listed in my FOLKSY shop today

new resin jewellery

These are a few of my latest resin pieces that I've added to my MISI and Folksy stores
the image of a red lipstick kiss captured in a clear shiny resin heart
 
and this spots and dots heart.  The dots are made with left over coloured resin that I put aside for a rainy day.
Both these pendants are available from my MISI shop
This spots and dots pendant was made in the same way as the heart pendant but it has a sterling silver bail and the black mesh necklace has sterling ends and clasp.  This pendant is available from my Folksy shop

These fun keyrings should make you smile - gone fishing and gone sailing are on Folksy,  DAD and frog prince on MISI

pocket watch display dome

dad made this display dome to house an old pocket watch he'd found.  We don't know if it was once owned by a family member
it's not for sale, unfortunately, but it's too nice not to show it off!

more resin jewellery

I've been making lots of resin pieces recently and have spent the past few days finishing them off and making them up into jewellery.
Taking photos is so time consuming too but I listed some new pieces




These pendants have been listed on GroovyCart  I've embedded rainbow coloured bugle beads in shiny black resin - I love the effect

This pendant has been listed on Folksy along with these two beaded charm bracelets
I've called the pendant "sunset squiggle" - I twisted some wire and and embedded it in red and yellow resin - where the two colours met created this gorgeous sunset
While the resin was curing I had a play with some beads and made the two bracelets


I've also listed these fun cufflinks on MISI and have called them "keys to my......"
tiny keys embedded in black resin - the keys could be to your heart, car, wallet or anything appropriate to your relationship
