We have such incredible sunsets here in Creston, nestled between two mountain ranges, that I wanted to do some pieces to reflect what I am lucky enough to enjoy on a daily basis.  I begin with watercolor paintings, (second photo is my next set in progress)  using the colors of the sky and mountains for each season.  Those pictures were then cut to fit into bezels, filled with resin, with the addition of tiny glass beads-in this case, black ones.  They worked well with the black briolette Swarovski crystal I used at the bottom, attached and wrapped with silver wire.

My ear wires are always silver, work hardened to retain their shape, then dipped in a smelly solution to add an aged patina to them-and that’s it….done.  Hope you like-pop over to my store if interested in these ones, and please leave me a comment and come back often!
