Echoes of Norway

A couple more organic pieces that I finished today! I'm on such a organic jewelry kick lately. I just can't seem to stop making hand molten hearts. I must admit that it is not easy making hand formed molten jewelry. More often than not they don't turn out the way I'd like them to. One has to work fast to make sure the whole piece doesn't melt into a clump.
The pieces I made today are slightly oxidized to bring out the details. I normally don't tumble polish all of my jewelry after they are oxidized, however, with these ones I did and I love the result.
Both these pieces come with lovely red coral beads, black onyx and rock crystal beads. Hope you'll like them as much as I do!
Now I am off to try to convince John to get a soft ice cream down on the waterfront. It is absolutely beautiful today. Tomorrow we are off to Sarpsborg for a concert. Bill Champlin is having an intimate concert ( he is an x-member of the band Chicago ). Should be fun. Will see if I can take some pictures!
It's a long weekend here in Norway. The 17th of May is Norway's national day and the streets are always filled with marching brass bands and dressed up Norwegians in their traditional outfits. Really beautiful.

Hope you are all having a lovely friday!
