Freeform Wire Work

I finished this order last week but my camera broke! I managed to get some pics using a friends camera whew!

Oh and whilst browsing Youtube I discovered there was a name for what I was calling Eclectic lol. Its called Freeform.




Freeform Bracelet: 75le or £7.50
Silver plated wire with Glass swirly beads in pink. Topped off with a 8mm Indian glass bead.
All components are completely handmade including the clasp. :-)



Close up of the wirework on the beads and the links. I also added a swirly charm.



Freeform Earrings: 40le or £4
Acrylic 4mm bicone beads in pink and white with silver plated wire and 4mm silver plated spacer bead.
This pattern is an adaptation from a tutorial found on Youtube by Turquoise String Beads. I came across this completely by accident as I was actually working on a version to add to the Freeform aka Eclectic Set.



Close up of the tassles on the earrings. I LOVE tassles!




Freeform Pendant: 30le or £3
Silver plated wire with 4mm pink and white beads and a 4mm silver plated spacer bead.

Swans

Tonsillitis, Polio, flu, heavy colds etc are running rampant in Egypt this month! Thankfully I'm not suffering from all the above, just tonsillitis :-) I found and excellent tutorial online from the magnificent Perfectly Twisted Company. Some gorgeous works of art and free tutorials. Thanks to Izzy Gumbo for this gorgeous Swan Tutorial from which I made several gifts and sales!
