Year of Jewelry: Week 7
Whew... I have kept up with the program for seven weeks now. And I have found that I really enjoy the fact that I am committed to making one piece a week. I don't know... in a way it really frees me. I take the word or concept that is suggested and roll it around in my mind. I make it my own; some in predictable ways , some not so expected. I hope that you have been enjoying having a companion pass for the journey.
The topic of the week was 'Off the Cuff'. Now a lot of people are making cuff bracelets but I don't really care for them. I don't like the strictures that they apply. I want dangles and little jingling noises. Well I want movement. So I went with a charm bracelet.
I also wanted one that would pay homage to love because of yesterday. But I didn't want it so in for face that it could only be worn on Valentine's Day. I think that I succeeded. What do you think?

I like it!! Gina H.
ReplyDeleteI love your heart charms. I agree - jingle jangly charm bracelets are the best. It feel s so feminine when you move your wrist and hear the sweet tinkle of the charms. Congratulations on staying with the YOJ!! I have taken a momentary pause but I'll be back at it soon!
