I revived my old hobby of making jewelry. It's been years since I've done anything like this, but I'm right excited about the results. The first is a bracelet made with solder wire and accented with dyed copper wire.

Next, a couple pairs of earrings.

And a bracelet made of copper wire spirals and eye beads. It's supposed to luck you against the evil eye. Or the copper is good for your arthritis. Or it's real purdy. Take your pick.

The last two are of the same bracelet, the cross is reversable.

Real Purdy indeed!! Very nicely done.

Do you make to wear yourself? Or sell it? Do you ever sell on etsy.com? I love that website.

I wear it, I sell it, I give it away, mostly I just make it for the pleasure of creating something. I'll have to check out that site, I could always use the extra $$$.

But the birth of an obsession can be a beautiful thing!

These pieces are pretty. I like the copper pieces, as they're unusual. Keep going, Beth. :)

One of my friends makes jewellery, so I like receiving Christmas or birthday presents from her.

Pretty. Since I'm from Arizona, I love copper.

It's probably my favorite medium, followed by hemp cord as a close second.

More to come. This obsession, which has long lain dormant, is back in full force.
