Holland School 2007

This was our Wire Sculpture class. Back Row L to R: Anna (instructor), Maureen, Sandi, Front: Lee (my sis!) and Me (R).
This was a Flourite cab. I didn't like my circles coming down the right side, so I covered them with Swaros and pearls, and I really like this pendant now!	An odd shaped stone. I wish I could remember what the stone it, but it's just one I had in my collection.
I was trying to do these abalone earrings like the black onyx set below, but messed up! Fortunately, I was able to turn out a decent piece anyway and then duplicate it for a 2nd earring!	This is actually a small pendant. I know it doesn't look like it in the photo. The piece of Charoite is only about 1" tall. I was pretty happy with this one because I messed up where I put the loop on the left side. The neat thing about sculpture is that you just have to make some adjustments to fit your mistake, and go on. I'm amazed that I didn't have to toss the wire and start over.
. An onyx set. Anna calls this style "X-men" because you make an X on the back when you first start	I love stick pearls, so I knew I'd like this project!
I was really making earrings with the green pearls, but made one of the earrings too big, so Voila!, another pendant set.	The Swarovski pearls were a Mother's Day gift from my daughter, and I thought they'd be perfect for this project.
This was a fun silver bracelet, but I couldn't help adding some Swaros again to dress it up.	Some simple loop earrings which were a little more challenging to do than one would think!
