Feeling sad...

Nüüd on see siis käes. Mul on täielik blokk ehetega. Huvitav. Osa minust tahab ehteid teha, teine osa aga absoluutselt mitte. Lausa vastumeelne. Tühistasin kõik ehtetellimused. Tänan neid, kes olid mõistvad.

Praegu teen ehete asemel neist pilte. Mul on hulgaliselt pooleli olevaid asju. Näiteks kollektsioon, mille alustasin eelmise aasta novembris. See tuleb neljas eksemplaris. Plaanisin, et sellest saab kevad-suvi 2012, ent ei tea, kas jõuan enne kevadet valmis. Teema on midagi idamaist ja värvideks klassikaline punane koos valge pärli ning sellise rohelise tooniga, mis meenutab poolvääriskive nagu jadeiit, nefriit ning krüsopraas.

Now that's that. I've got a mental block when it comes to making jewellery. Interesting. Part of me wants to craft and part of me absolutely doesn't. It's even reluctant. I cancelled all custom orders. Thank you who understood.

Right now I take photos. I've got many unfinished jewellery. For excample this collection that I started in November last year. Everything will be in four copies. I planned it to be for spring-summer 2012 but I doubt I'll make it in time. Theme is something oriental with strong classical colors of siam red, white pearl and green that resembles semiprecious stones like jade, chrysoprase and nefrite.

Earring & Bracelet Set

Ma avastasin, et olen viimasel ajal unarusse jätnud käekettide valmistamise! Kõrvarõngaid muudkui tuleb, ja natuke ka kaelakeesid, aga käekette ei ole teinud juba tükk aega! Nii tegingi ühe, päris lihtsa.

Pruunikirju siidisest klaasist ovaalsed helmed on Tšehhis valmistatud ning neile on peale pressitud lillekujuline muster. Oliivrohelised on aga käsitsi keeratud, mitte just perfektsed, aga eriti põnevas viimistluse koosluses - hõbefoolium ning matt pind! See paneb need helmed salapäraselt kumama! Lisaks kasutasin ka Tšehhi seemehelmeid ning Swarovski kristalle Green Tourmaline.

I recently realized that I haven't made any bracelets for a long time! Right now it's more easy to make earrings, even some necklaces, but no bracelets whatsoever! So I made one, and quite simple one.

Oval shaped beads with silky glass in brown colors were made in Czech, they have flowery pattern pressed on the surface. Olive green beads are handmade and not so uniform in shape/size and quality, but they have most fascinating combination of finishes - silver foil and frosted surface! These make the beads glow inside! I also used Czech seedbeads and Swarovski Green Tourmaline crystal rhinestones.

Miss Molly Button Earrings with Saphiret rhinestones

Nüüd on see tehtud. Võtsin julguse kokku ja lammutasin ühe antiikse prossikese ära. See oli ümmargune ning Saphiret kivid olid ringikujuliselt prossi servas. Kivi, mis pidi prossi keskel olema, oli läinud kaduma. Lähemalt saab lugeda Saphiret klaasist siin. Kõrvarõngad on tumedates toonides, saphiret klaasi punakaspruun ning vanade käsitsi tehtud (!) 1-2mm klaaspärlite beež toon sulab kokku antiikvaskse metalliga. Saphiret klaasi sinist helki õnnestus mul natuke ka fotole jäädvustada ent päriselus on see kivi palju ilusam :)

Now I've done it. I took apart an antique saphiret brooch for harvesting the stones. The brooch was round shaped and the saphiret rhinestones were in circle on the edge. The bigger stone in the middle was lost. You can read more about saphiret glass here. Earrings are in dark colors with red brown of the saphirets and beige color of handmade (!) 1-2mm glass pearls blend together with antique copper metal. I managed to get some of the saphirets blue light on photos but these stones look a lot prettier in person :)

Watching the time...

Aeg libiseb käest ja nii palju on vaja teha. Olen maha jäänud on raamatupidamisega, hulk tellimustöid on ootel ning konkursitööks pole mingeid ideid...

Time is slipping away and there's so much to be done. I'm behind with my bookkeeping, a lot of custom works are on the waiting list and there's no ideas for the competition...
