Re: Beading Goodness (Melinda Kimberly's Jewelry, as Requested)

Melinda, those are simply beautiful ! I'm especially taken with the Violet Carson ring, the color is so brilliant! I have small hands, but was wondering about how wide the flower is? Aaaaand, do you sell these? emoticon

Oh, and do you have any pix of these in bracelet or pendant form? Thanks!

*nodnodnod* The pictures don't fully do it justice, either.

Well, for reference, I wear a size 6 ring, which is smaller than the majority of my customers can fit. The ring itself is about 1 inch (2 cm) wide. It's a fairly large flower, but is truly dazzling on. Also I have materials to make it with smaller non-heart-shaped petals.

Yup. $25 domestic (within the US. Includes S&H and all that annoying stuff.) $30 international. That's for the ring. I'll need to know your size before I start.

Not yet. The design's too new. I'll work on it, though. emoticon

*sigh* If only I had any money left...((damn you expensive OzzFest tickets!))

They are both very evry beautiful, but I do like the violet carson ebtter, but that's just because I tend to prefer cool colors over warm colors.

Re: Beading Goodness (Melinda Kimberly's Jewelry, as Requested)

Just stumbled onto this thread (not sure how I missed it before) and can I just say. . . emoticon

. . .followed by:

emoticon

!

If I had even half of your talent. . .

These are beautiful pieces. I was blown away by the Scarlet Carson ring. . . and then I paged down a little further and saw the Violet Carson ring. All variations of purple are my absolute favorite anyway, but this ring takes the cake.

I might just have to order one. . .

I'm going shopping for my goddaughter's third birthday this weekend, we'll see where that leaves me (I can start saving for the 2007 Convention next paycheck emoticon

).

I'll PM you later for more details.

Melinda, you talented little flame-red lemur of love,

Have you considered if it's possible to make a (simplified) beaded V mask? A miniature one that could be worn as a brooch or necklace pendant?
Now THAT would be awwwwwwwesome. emoticon

Acutally, my artistically-augmented advocate of avarice, I'm working on some kind of beading project I can take with me to the 2007 con, hopefully there to either give samples as gifts or teach the techniques used to make them, as the crowd wishes. Haven't come up with anything yet that satisfy both my aesthetic and the practicalities of my being able to TEACH the damn thing but....

Eighteen months is a good long time.

And the mask might be do-able. I'll look into it.

We could never mothball you Miss Kitty! It just wouldn't be the same around here!

Can't wait to see the new pics.

I can't wait to see it in real life. It looks phenomenal in my imagination. . .

Yay for the V petals. I don't think it would be quite right any other way. emoticon
