Countdown

One week until the movie release of Alice in Wonderland - 3D! (March 5th) I'm pre-ordering my tickets!

In the mean time I've added to my own Wonderland jewelry with little post earrings. These tiny silhouettes have been hand cut from 20 gauge sterling silver...and what a feat that was to try to get the tiny details! Yet well worth it... I think ;)

Lastly, I'm still having a good time with ring designs. These follow the slug design, where a cute little creature wraps itself around your finger. So....what do you think?

RINGS!

Some ideas I've finally come to realizing.

All sterling 2o guage silver bands:

+ Slug ring...inspired by a cute friend of mine that has a fascination with these critters... other critter bands are being conjured ;)

+ Braille embossed ring- this one says "love"

+"Treasured" heart lock ring. (lock actually opens!) hammered sterling.

The open band designs allow for size flexibility... so exact ring size is not critical.
Check them out!

P.S. The latest Alice in Wonderland design: "Doormouse on Teapot" sterling necklace.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

I'm super excited about Tim Burton's upcoming movie "Alice in Wonderland". It looks fantastical and I can't imagine who better to play the mad hatter than Johnny Depp.

Inspired by its magic, I've been planning my own trip down the rabbit hole with a set of new designs inspired by Lewis Carroll's Classic.

I've hand cut various silhouettes depicting some famous favorite characters such as the White Rabbit, the Caterpillar, the Cheshire cat and of course Alice.

I'm still working on the Mad Hatter ;) Maybe I'll be inspired after the movie.

In the mean time check out a couple of my
new silhouette necklaces and an old favorite:
