Learning to Viking Knit

I love wire work jewellery and last week eventually got around to viking knitting. I have loved the viking chains for some time but was put off trying by the expensive tool that you appeared to need for this.
I realised I could make my own kit and here it is.

It is a wooden spoon priced 59p  with a daisy made out of wire on the top with a plastic tie.
You make the daisy to thread the wire through. I was advised to use a thin enough wire for the daisy so you can pull it through a draw plate. But you can remove the daisy before doing so.I found I did not really need the tie since you can hold on the daisy whilst you weave.You can male your own draw plate by drilling different size holes on a length of wood. But I used a knitting needle gauge I got for £2.50 at a craft shop.Not bad a hoem made kit for around £3 and it works,

Granny be Proud

I enjoyed myself at the fair on  Sunday, it was nice to meet everyone again and to talk to folk as mad as I am for jewellery. Its a lovely hot day today. No jewellery making today, just a wee quiz from Emil age ten.
What do you think this photo is of?
It makes me think of the beach and stones, what about you?

Sharks Teeth Pendants

Shark Teeth Pendants

I made these pendants for party bag gifts for boys at my sons eleventh birthday party.What do you think?

They are wrapped very loosely with no fancy detail, I had to restrain myself, no swirls ha,ha.

I will add black cord with matching handmade clasps.

Drilling Sea glass with a Dremel

I usually wire wrap sea glass .Today I had fun drilling sea glass with my new dremel and diamond tipped drill bits. Its a wee bit tricky, however I was able to drill this lovely aqua piece which I quickly wrapped with silver plated wire into this simple ring. I like the roughness of the seaglass, the uneven edges and the fact that every piece is different,

 Handmade Wire Necklace,Dark Blue with Crystal Beads

This is the beaded back clasp detail

This is a favorite necklace,crystals with dark blue hand coiled beads.

I really love this necklace, I like the contrast between the dark blue wire and the crystals and the antique copper details. The dark blue and clear crystal beads add sparkle and set this off well. I made matching earrings.The necklace looks nice from the back with the beaded clasp detail. This is a firm favorite make.

Matching handmade earrings with handmade earwires

I love the deep blue of the Donut pendant so made this reversible

Donut pendant with silver plated wire.

I  chose this glass pendant for its lovely silver and lilac hues which go great with the silver plated wire.This is my first attempt at wire wrapping  donut shape and I just went with the shape and I think this works. I made the pendant reversible since I adore the bright blue glass .So now I have a pendant to match lots of outfits.
I have a lovely red  glass donut bead too waiting for wire wrap inspiration.

Heart Pendant

This is my domed heart pendant which I made at Silversmith class today.

Tree Of Life Pendant and Earring Set

It is totally addictive making these little Tree of Life Pendant and despite all my practice still time consuming.I am making trees loaded with gemstones so the design is the gemstones and the shine and some of the trees are overloaded like the cherry blossoms just now.

I made this little set comprising a pendant and earring set. It took longer than three times as long since the little earrings are tricky but I hope you agree it was worthwhile.
I made these and lots of other littlle trees for my stall at https://www.facebook.com/TheChildrensWood
this Sunday 2nd June
