I found this beautiful labradorite at a Rock & Gem show last year.  It's been waiting patiently for me to decide on a design and at last... I set it it a handmade bezel on a fold form cuff bracelet.

Display is a trial and error thing. Mine has been evolving  with each setup. I'm pretty happy with my last setup.   The 2nd weekend I liked even better as all the displays were black. It's an art I have yet to perfect - perseverance is the secret - I'm hoping. Maybe a few more tweaks but it is less cluttered than when I first started out and the white topper helped brighten things up, especially in a dark forested area.   <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <> <>  Having one table will present a bigger challenge but hey, I'm up for it. I see possibly 3 layers on one table.  Need a practice run though. Festival of Arts Set Up - Day 2 Table two Having looked at some of my earlier setups, I see clutter which means pieces were being overlooked. Busts can take...

I designed this necklace for  The Jewelry Junkies of the Fraser Valley 2013 Bead Challenge and won 1st place. SOLD

I'm looking forward to getting into my studio next week and have new designs dancing in my head itching to get out for next weekend show at the Festival of Arts. Torch Fired Enamel with Sterling Silver Ear Wires Having fun with the copper/brass hearts.
