Mixed Metal Jewellery

I've neglected my blog over the last month just havn't had time.  I have been adding new items of jewellery to our wowthankyou shop as it only had 5 on there so i thought it about time to put more on and see what happens! will let you know on that.

Today i did manage to make 3 items of jewellery a celtic knot necklace mixed metal

, mixed metal hammered copper and silver "i wish" dandelion stamped pendant and my favourite although i probably would not wear them myself but i like look of them is some vintaj brass dove bird stamped with an olive branch and i added rustic border and riveted a stacked flower onto the bottom.  Kind of quaint and whimsical look .


So my plans for next month are to teach myself to tube rivet, possibly made a stacked riveted and stamped ring and soldering!!! i have the torch hee hee.  My sister does all this already but hasn't got time to show me at present so i am you tubing and googling it all. 

Will show you all my efforts soon - promise.

Mixed metal dog tag pendant

Today i've made a mixed metal dog tag pendant using a copper tag which i hammered heavily and oxidised heavily then buffed back.  I added a sterling silver strip stamped it with word LOVE oxidised it and attached to sterling silver chain. 

I quite like the way it has turned out, rustic and earthy look quite different and eyecatching. 

We will be adding more mixed metal to our website soon.
