Handmade Statement Necklaces

I've been working on some new pieces in the shop.  It seems there is never enough time in the day when you own your business.  I could spend almost all day just photographing and editing.  Add marketing, blogging, designing, hand making the pieces, packaging and shipping and the day is already over.  As much work as it is I love it and I couldn't see myself doing anything else.  

In the studio....

This morning was very productive!  I thought I'd show you some works in progress so you can see the pieces made from beginning to end.  I was playing around with different methods of painting, color and texture.  These paintings will become statement necklaces.  I think that they're perfect for summer. The more color the better.
