What techniques do you use to create your jewerly?

November 20, 2012 by

Most glass and pottery is initially epoxied to the finding (pin backing, barrette, etc..) with a very durable epoxy and then wrapped in wire for design & security.  When pearls or beads are used decoratively, these are strung on the wire for security.  Pendants and earrings undergo drilling and riveting in some of the designs.  The practice of drilling glass is acceptable by the North East Sea Glass Association.

What a delight your creations are!  Not only was I pleased to purchase a beautiful sea glass pin – and bought hair sticks and a barrette as well for two wonderful friends for Christmas presents.  It was a very difficult decision as to give any of these away – each one unique.  I finally decided to keep the brooch, hoping that I could purchase more in the future!  Thank you for adding beauty in the world!
