spotlight on: green angel earrings. made from a length of chain, a couple of beads, and of course some hardware (in this case a wingnut), once this piece came together, i couldn't help noticing they look like angels dangling from my ears! which is perfect for "the Light of Christmas Boutique", where they'll be for sale november 4th (the boutique is on the 5th, too, but don't expect these cuties to still be hanging around by then ;). i know most people would tell me: make more like this! if you find something you think people will like, mass produce them! these ones aren't so weird like your other jewelry... (i actually had a friend tell me this week, "YOU can pull your jewelry off, but i'm not sure anyone ELSE can!") but i have to tell you... i just can't do it. which is i guess part of why i consider myself an "artist" rather than a "crafter". i don't just come up with a good audience-friendly product, then make it in large (cookie cutter) quantities. my artistic soul needs to make new and fresh things every time. so any piece you see of mine is truly one-of-a-kind, and will stay that way! new things might include elements i enjoyed from some past piece, but never a duplicate. so, only one of you will be wearing these angels when the weekend is over (love it!)!
