I've been blessed with "down-time!" And that means time to experiment and create some of the design ideas I've been carrying around in my head for months. There are several wonderfully creative artist that I follow on Etsy and I constantly draw a steady flow of inspiration from their work. 6shadowsjewelry is one of those artists and her Secret Bottle necklacehas driven me to the bench this week.
I'm making my own version, a scent bottle pendant using my flower garden motif. Here's the progress so far:
The larger flowers will all have tiny little gem stones in the middle to add a bit of color. And the finished bottle will have holes to release the scent of dried lavender or chamomile hidden inside.
Stay tuned!!! I'll post images of the finished product shortly.
About me:----------- (My web site )
I live in the North Atlanta suburbs with my husband and our cat, Waffles. I am a proud parent to my one and only beautiful 25 year old daughter. I am from the South, so that makes me a Southerner. But definitely not your average Southern belle once you get to know me, I tend to let my "Freak Flag Fly."
I love playing with fire! I am a full-time metalsmith. Two days a week I work in an Art Gallery/Studio as the bench assistant to a locally well known jeweler of 40+ years. The rest of my time is spent making my own jewelry with precious metals and gem stones. (K. Berlin on Etsy )
My life is full but I always enjoy meeting new people and finding new challenges to keep my mind and body active.
