STUDIO OPPS!

Image
Mishaps happen in the studio. The bezel soldered perfectly and I was just about to solder it to the backplate so I could set the labradorite when all of a sudden, it jumped out of my hands and landed on a cement floor. Ouch. As you can see - it broke. Somethimes if just isn't meant to be. #bezel #jewelry #crack #solder via Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1M1Pyn9

GETTING ORGANIZED!

Image
I have visions of one day being really organized. You know a place for everything and everything in its place. In addition to revamping one part of my studio, there it the other side. In particular, my jewelers bench. It's a second hand handmade bench from Craigslist and I'm ever so grateful to have it, but with only one shelf its just not functioning well. Yes, I will bear the shame and show you a before photo. I'll upload a new one when I get it organized. via Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1pHrbRL

Time to heat things up. Insulation going in. I will not be cold next winter.

Facebooks reach is dependant on what you post. Pics/videos/links. They all work a little differently. Just an experiment here to see if more reach with just a photo vs. one with a link in it. These are new earrings that have been listed. Brightens things up in the photos with a few flowers/leaves. I need to raid the garden more often.

Combining several \andmade and commercial stamps on a few pair of earrings with soldered accent beads. Playing around and photographed on a speciality store bag just to add a little interest. #stamped #jewelry #earrings #soldered #jewellery #debVdesigns #boho #textured #surrey #langley #southsurrey #northdelta #northvancouver #whiterock

Spent a little time in the studio earlier this evening to work on a few new things. What I thought I could do actually worked out and I'm very happy with the end results. Impresson dies, solder, hand stamps. What more could a gal want. Nice deep patina on these earrings. #jewelry #debVdesigns #earrings #solder #stamps #impressiondies #jewelllery #supportlocal #buylocal

Got to do a little experimenting yesterday with impression dies. This is one of the impressions on a copper heart and will make adorable earrings. My body is stuck in the office but my mind and heart want to be the stuido. Sign.

I'm in my happy place when I get new tools/materials to use in creating jewelry. This darling starfish was created using an impression die on the hydraulic press with a crackled blue glass bead. Fabricating from sheetmetal and wire is the best. #jewelry #debVdesigns #hydraulicpress #starfish #soldered #handstamped #pendant #statement #OAK #oneofakind
