Same bracelet, same earrings but I did a different necklace to go with them for when I feel in a more romantic mood. It is made from a vintage chandelier crystal also. I did a transfer by dampening a laser print with nail polish and then I used an iron to press it against the crystal. I repeated the nail polish and iron a few times to make sure the transfer was made. Then I soaked it in water and rubbed off the paper. I now had a semi-translucent image. When it was dry I sealed it with diamond glaze and a touch of gold leaf pen around the edge. Most of the parts are vintage brass that has been flame treated to look older.
You have quite a knack for coming up with wonderful ideas. This jewelry is scrumptious!

ReplyDeleteYour jewelry is absolutely beautiful, Inka...love all things Vintage and this fills the bill. Excellent wire and bead work.
ReplyDeleteOh Inka, it is beautiful and I like the little cherub you attached.
ReplyDeleteAfter the holidays I purchased some of the crystals on a clearance sale thinking they would be good for something next Christmas season. I was thinking ornaments because the crystals are four inches in length. I had no idea what could be done and you are filled with so many terrific ideas. Thanks for the continual inspiration. I hadn't thought of a transfer.
Inka, this is beautiful as well, that sounds like a kewl technique, I,m going to have to give it a try,
