All items in the photos are available at Copacetic in Providence, RI

New Shell Pendants

Well, it's not the best picture, but at least I have my camera and computer back up and running, maybe another week and I'll have my photo tent set up again! Clockwise in the photo are:

1.mohagany clam shell 2.ark shell 3.bay oyster 4.purple mussel and 5.jingle shell

Had to take a quick photo as they're off to Most Naturally this afternoon!



ps- I came across some photos of our new house when we were first moving in/before painting, etc. I'm going to organize them and take some photos of how the house is looking today and post soon!

New work and oh- I love my tumbler!

Some Seashell Pendants
Originally uploaded by mornindew2822

Some of the new seashell pieces I completed this week. I took the plunge and tried tumbling my pendants in stainless steel shot (I was so scared it would crack the shells!) I tried it on a "burnt toast" piece first and the shell held up, so I tumbled these pieces and they are super shiny and my hands are SO grateful! Polishing to a mirror finish by hand is pretty labor intensive. Polishing in the tumbler takes so much of that work out of my hands (pun intended) and cuts my cleaning time in half!

For those interested, I use a Lortone double barrel rotary tumbler. :)

These and other pieces are available at Most Naturally in the Pier Marketplace, Narragansett RI. :)

She continues to sell seashells... and some beach pottery too!

As a follow up to my original post, I have been uber busy working on seashell pendants bezel set in sterling silver. I delivered 6 pieces (5 made of seashell, 1 was a piece of beachcombed transferware) to a local shop for the store owner to try out over the 4th of July weekend. She called today to tell me she loves them and has sold 2 already and would like 5 more pendants and also some earrings- go me!


If you are local to the area, my seashell pieces are now officially available at Most Naturally in the Pier Marketplace (Narragansett, RI)

Woohoo!

Rings and things

A few more pieces I made this week...
green jellybean sea glass ring

green sea glass pendant (I cut out the backing to let light shine through)


white ark shell earrings to match the pendant from the other day

pecten shell pendant

She sells seashells...

Okay well I guess I've always sold seashells, but now I'm incorporating them into my jewelry pieces- my newest design is a bezel set ark shell. It's set in sterling silver and is about 1 1/4 inches in size. I am going to attempt at least one (maybe two if time permits) more with different shells over the course of this weekend...


If this line takes off, I guess I'll really earn my "Scarborough Seashells" name, lol! People always ask why I'm not "Scarborough Sea Glass"....
