Seaglassing & Wire Wrapping

Seaglass and Designs

My New

 

These days so many lovelies on Prince Edward Island are wire wrapping Seaglasss.  I decided to design a new look, I like to think it is jewellery from the age and era of the Titanic but my French Gardener tells me it is Steampunk Jewellery with all the embellishments.  Whatever it is called I made a few new pieces this past week to share with you and need your opinion on them.  Like most new adventures, we are critical of ourselves so be honest and let me know what age group this might be aimed too? Do you think this might be a seller? Should I just stick to what I know and the usual wirewrapping I’ve done?

 

Drum Roll………

“Miss dragonfly”  has just landed on a smooth landing pad picked from the shores of Prince Edward Island. Well rounded and smooth this teal piece of seaglass was perfect for her little feet to drop down onto.

Next….

 This is dear to my heart and I caller her “Miss Diet”.  If you have a look you can see Miss Diet knows the key to success, and it  is  time and she has nicely put it onto her plate.

And…….

reflections

 

“Miss Reflections” who could forget this little dear who flutters around us daily reminding us of how short the tree of life really is for her.  The trunk of the tree of life carries her offspring who have not yet grown up to learn the colours of life yet,  but they are close by and eager. For if they earn those colours her job is done and passed on.

Lastly……..

Bringing up the tail end is “Miss Wantabee”

“Miss Wantabee” is a flighty dragonfly who is very compassionate about her work and friends, she is compelled to be a follower not a leader. She enjoys the simple life of colours and flowers and couldn’t care about their names just that they surround her.  She has made her nest in the tree of life and won’t fly too far from it.

 

The pictures you see are real, they are my new designs, the names and people they have been created from are protected for personal reasons. These necklaces along with other Seaglass can be purchased in the Prince Edward Island gift shop called “Island Made” located at 545 Malpeque Rd, Charlottetown.

 

Thank you, Cindy

    Hi Cindy, I think they are beautiful and a nice change from the usual stuff I’ve seen. Corra really likes the butterflies and clock but said they dragonfly was not her style.

      Oh Corra, I prefer dragonflies.
      Please for me, let Corra know, I have a new scone and need her to test it out also, lol.

      It is cranberry and roasted almonds.

    this email will work LOL

  3. Your blogpost looks fine Cindy. I think you should make your pictures larger so we can see more detail though. I love these pieces and I like dragonflies too. 🙂

    • Scrapbook Cindy says:

      Great suggestion Pamela, I’ll have to change the settings on my photosizer then you will be seeing more detail. Light has plenty to do with it as well. I notice a great deal of my pictures turn out when taken outside. Oh well we are coming up to that time of year again.

        I personally love your wire wrapping. others may do it but they don’t compare to your unique creative designs !

        • Scrapbook Cindy says:

          What a lovely surprise Pam. I was thinking so many are doing wire wrapping that I needed a new look. I haven’t given up on my wrapping just took a fresh start in another direction for a little short time. Like habit I always return to what I like doing best, lol, this week I’m trying to knit socks. Do you knit?

    I LOVE all these designs, Cindy! I’m caught between Miss Diet and Miss Wantabee as my favorite… I also love the stories with each design… it adds that special Cindy touch.

    • Scrapbook Cindy says:

      I started writing little stories about my designs as a way of connecting the piece and individual. Ya, I think so also, thank you, means a great deal that others appreciate. Take care

    I loved the dragonfly ,its beautiful…. I also liked the one with the butterfly For me they remind me some of the pieces my Nana used to have and they were pieces that were her Moms. I asked Jannie if she has seen these pieces and she said she had and she liked the same ones I liked with the little critters and it was Jannie who started me on my collection of Dragonflies ,just thought you might like to know that . Anyway thanks for letting us see your work way down here! So I’ll say bye for now Sandie

      I have plenty of memories around my Grandmother as she was a great inspiration to me. I get that joy in these little critters and creating jewellery. Thanks for coming by and I’m glad you enjoyed my work
