Hurray for Autumn!

10/1/2020

The nip in the air and nature's rich, warm colors make autumn my favorite season. Rust, ocher, orange, red and brown are fall colors that influence the stones and metals I choose as I create jewelry. Here are a few of my favorites.
Chocolate Jasper - deep browns with just  hint of ocher make this a very versatile stone. It's perfect for the chocoholic - no calories!

Copper, Brass and Bronze - either in their shiny state or oxidized to give them a deeper tone. Earrings, necklaces, and bracelets have a warm glow to accent any fall wardrobe.

Fire Jasper - rich rusty reds with a swish of gray. A stone you won't find everywhere which definitely says "autumn".

Fired Agate - shades of orange from pale to deep make this an ideal stone for fall. Its crackled pattern is the result of heating the stone.
Smoky Quartz - soft, translucent brown makes this stone the perfect accent for other fall-toned stones. It's equally lovely on its own with a touch of copper or bronze.

​Tiger Eye - the shift from deep to golden brown can be mesmerizing, like a tiger's eye seen through jungle foliage.

I enjoy sorting through all my treasures to find just the right combination of metals, gemstones and beads to create a unique piece of jewelry. And at this time of year, I go absolutely wild for all the deep, rich autumn colors.

Have a wonderful Autumn!

Awesome Autumn

I love fall! It's my favorite time of the year. I love its rich, warm colors - rust, ocher, orange, red, yellow and brown. I love the flickering flames of a fire in my wood stove. And I even like the little nip in the air that says winter will be here soon.
What says autumn more than richly colored leaves? So, this year my fall collection features hand-forged copper and bronze wire leaves.

​Some are filled with snippets of my sister-in-law's greeting cards which contain the deep colors and complex patterns evident in the paintings from which the cards are created. After adhering the colorful snippets to a copper or bronze leaf shape, I coat both sides with resin which brings out the colors and adds dimension.

Others are filled with resin. First, I fill the wire leaf shape with clear resin. Then I add dots of red, yellow and orange tinted resin. Finally, I swirl the tinted resin through the clear which results in a marbled effect.

And sometime, I just leave them plain allowing the rich copper and bronze hammered metal to shine. I often mix plain and filled leaves in one piece.
My fall collection also includes the deep, warm tones of autumnal gemstones such as tiger eye, chocolate jasper and smoky quartz. I enjoy matching gemstones and wire to create the perfect fall necklace or earrings.

Update your wardrobe with a little fall color.

Fall is my favorite time of year. I love its rich, warm colors - rust, ocher, orange, red and brown. These colors influence the stones and metals I choose as I create jewelry. Here are just a few of my current favorites.
Chocolate Jasper - deep browns with just a hint of ocher make this a very versatile stone. It's perfect for every chocoholic - no calories!

Colored Copper Wire - fantastic hues like navy, deepest green, plum and burgundy combine to celebrate fall in a variety of earrings and rings.

​Copper, Brass and Bronze - either in their shiny state or oxidized to give them a deeper tone. Earrings, necklaces and bracelets have a warm glow to accent any fall wardrobe.

​
Fire Jasper - rich rusty reds with a swish of gray. A stone you won't find everywhere.
Fired Agate - shades of orange from pale to deep make this an ideal stone for fall.

​Goldstone - this beautiful brown stone with golden sparkles is man-made of glass and copper salts. When the light hits it, you'll say "Wow".

​
Smoky Quartz - its soft, translucent brown is the perfect accent for many fall-toned gems. It's equally lovely on its own with a touch of copper or bonze.
