More Twists and Turns / Vintage Cooper

I had so much funny Making Connie's name
I decided to make more names, I tried out another wire this time that I got a while ago to make coils. Its a smaller gauge cooper wire (but doesn't say the exact gauge) but much much much easier to work with, Hence the more intricate turns.
I found that as long as I made the letter tighter the words were less flimsy and they don't change shape.

I think I'll have to give the 16 gauge wire a rest.. I'm getting a blister from bending ><.


Here are the new names I have made: Hope you like it!

Top left is made of the silver coated cooper 16gauge wire

This one is my favorite

This is my inital that I sign off with

Another 16 gauge magenta (red) cooper

Smaller gauge Copper wire

Update on last post
So for Connie's name I wasn't too happy with the nicks in the silver coating from my pliers.

I sanded it down with sandpaper and glazed it to create this Vintage Cooper look

Name necklace for "Con con"

A friend of mine wanted a name necklace.

I did research lots of research about how its done.

I found couple of attempts at spelling connie that I didn't totally like. (too flimsy in structure)

So this is what I made. Its colored 16 gauge copper wire, because that all I have that was thick enough.
I added hearts at the end for flare :D
I hope she likes it and that its what she wanted.

 I don't have the money to invest in expensive mineral wires (silver, gold) yet, but If you would like a necklace like this one with your name on it: Please contact me and maybe you can help me make my dream of being a paid aritist a reality. Thanks for reading.

Fruity Tarty

I've been having a horrible time focusing with my 5.0 mp phone camera even with a macro lens...odd colors...takes me forever to put up a post... I need a new camera ><, haven't really justified getting a DSLR though...still thinking...wish my dad would bring his canon back from Asia ><.

I've have been procrastinating again, I think this may be the last post before finals.
I've made a new tart charm...but in the process I made a huge mess and got glue on the sleeve of my work shirt cause I was too lazy to get out of them and I really wanted to finish the project...stupid glue gun!!

Here's the final product...I always make them in two or more, because I can't justify baking only 1 thing in the oven ><.

This is to Michaella, I hope you like it. Happy early Christmas! It costs time, money <3 and a shirt lol.

Monogram M on the back

Hope you like it M

Very time consuming but worth it!

Think I should sell these?

Cookies with Love

Can you believe it?? Another Post?? lol.
Just me, procrastinating before the toll of the finals ><.
I finally got to finishing off 2 cookie charms.
I think they will be put to good use because of the mirror on the back :D

I like the little one because it's cuter.
Great for days to check if food got stuck in your teeth :D hehe jk.
This one is for you Amanda! Hope you'll use the cute cookie charm.

For Bal and Ash,

Thank you for being my buddies and getting my back when I was nervous about mats.

2 Peas in a Pod

I am truly thankful for all the the special people in my life that were/are there for me and those who feel comfortable enough to share a part of their life with me; the good times and the bad. I'm thankful for friends like you. This is made with you in mind. For those who are so much like me and for those who stick by me and make me smile when I'm down, I always feel that we're 2 peas in a pod: Inseparable at heart.

This is what I spent my afternoon and evening doing. I was afraid the baking process of the polymer clay wound burn the pearly luster but I kept an eye out and it turned out well :D. I'm happy about them.
