Featured Artists Theme: Vacation

 Good Morning,

Ah, the Summer Vacation, I remember those.  Most people can’t or don’t take them any more for whatever reason that may be, but it is fun to think about going someplace exotic, or tropical, perhaps to another country or state you have never been to before.

This week’s Featured Artist for the blog ring is none other than myself.  I think we can take care of those vacation accessory needs!  You may shop either The Alchemists Vessel on Handmade Artists or The Alchemists Vessel on Etsy.

Going to the beach? How about these adorable Sea Horse earrings.  Perfect for Steampunk Summer fashions or just something to match sand and surf, you’ll look fabulous in these highly detailed earrings.

Featured Artist – A Bead Thing

Greetings,

Happy Wednesday one and all.  As tomorrow is a Holiday for the U.S., we’re once again changing things up a little bit and featuring the artist of the week today.  The blog will be taking a break tomorrow for Thanksgiving.

It is my pleasure to once again feature handmadeartists.com artisan and shop owner Pam, owner and designer of A Bead Thing.

Pam says: “Handcrafted jewelry is my passion. Choose handcrafted bracelets, rings, necklaces and pendants. I especially love creating bead woven jewelry because of the enormous variety in colors available and the diversity in style that can be created. Bead woven or stitched items are also lightweight and easily cared for. All contributed content © abeadthing

Not only is she an talented jewelry designer, she is also an avid advocate for handmade products, promotes other shops, is a member of the Handmade Artists Forum as well as a contributor to Handmade Artists blog.  She spearheads the Facebook Ring, and is currently involved in any number projects at home with her family.  You can read her blog post: Increase Sales or Lower Product Value, which is interesting and informative.

She is one busy woman.

Pam also finds time to create some really wonderful jewelry.  Some of my favorite pieces are below.

These just amaze me.  I can’t crochet but I just love to knit, and these incorporate a clever design  with beaded yarn for a crafty and unique pair of earrings.

Crochet Thread Hoop Earrings

Description Hoop earrings with crocheted centers using a purple crochet thread. This works out to have a dream catcher appearance.  I have added #8 light amber seed beads to the inner circle for a bit of sparkle.  16 gauge handcrafted hoops.   Length of earring, earwire to bottom  is 2.5 inches and they are almost 2 inches wide. 

Since different monitors show colors somewhat differently, I have used several camera settings to hopefully provide a clear view of the earrings and their color.

Swaovski Crystal Pendant

Description:  This lovely pendant is created using 4mm swarovski crystal bicones in light Siam and Amethyst with a brass metallic 11/0 seed bead.  Each of these is created separately and then connected using 4 mm glass pearls.  If you look closely you can tell that each segman is shaped into a cross using a right angle weave to begin.  The necklace is 22 inches toggle to bar.  

Emerald Swarovski Sparkles

Description:  This bracelet is woven using emerald colored 4mm swarovski crystals, gold-tone 11/0 seed beads on heavy duty Wild Fire  thread. Length is 8 inch.. Can be ordered for specific size and/or color.

We hope we have inspired you to take a look and see what else this talented bead-worker has to offer.

-The necklace measures approx. 45.5cm (17.91”) from one end to the other in a straight line.
The pendant is 3.5cm (1.38”) long and the resin rose measures 3cm (1.18”).

-The earring will fall 3.3cm (1.30 inches) from your piercing. I handcraft this beautiful pair using black resin rose flowers, set on silver plated ear posts. I wire wrapped the roses and pearls with silver plated wire.

The sled is a cheery holiday red with white runners. Glittering snowflakes add some sparkle.

This sled will become a treasured holiday decoration you’ll love for many years. It would also be an exceptional gift to give a loved one.

New Flower Bracelets in the Shop

 

Good Morning,

Happy October 1st, everyone.  Monday is here, so is Fall, and it is cold in here in this morning!

This weekend the Treasure Valley Flea Market is happening, and then once more, November 10th and 11th.  These will be the last shows I am attending this year.  We have on-going specials and sales this market.  Come on down, say Hello, or shop some of the vendors.

This morning’s new item is a very pretty and feminine Chainmaille bracelet.  Earrings to match can be made or found in the shop.  The Japanese 4-in-1 or  6-in-1 weaves use a ratio of large to small rings to create unique and interesting patterns, zig zags, flat sheets, and round objects can be formed using this weave.

These flowers are the size of a quarter, light weight and fun to wear.  Single flowers make an earring, and when linked together, a consistent chain.

This piece is two tone, one side is Silver the other Gunmetal tone rings, and alternating silver and gunmetal joining rings

The opposite side of the bracelet,  may be worn Silver side up or down for different looks.

Five flowers and a toggle clasp create this 7-1/4″ bracelet.  These may be made to desired length, using a variety of metals for single or two tone / double sided bracelets.  Precious metals are available per customer request.

When worn it creates an attractive band. (Ignore my arm).

Currently available in the Shop for $25.00 each.  We will be adding more of them as soon as I take photos and list them.  Don’t want to wait?  Convo the shop on the site and tell us what you’d like, we’ll set up a special listing just for you!

On a personal note, I think I need to go back to using the grey background.  The photos just are not translating well, my apologies.

Thank you for stopping in and having a look.

The Alchemists Vessel would like to wish you a pleasant work week.
