my head is spinning…

with new ideas!

I just got these new photo pendants in. They are soo sweet! You take out the glass, sandwich a photo or two inside, reinsert the glass and burnish (press down firmly) the little tab. The pendant and chain have a black patina (base metal). I added a freshwater pearl and czech glass bead. This side has Matty.

and this side has David (two photos, back to back).

I made the necklace long. It slips over my neck and hangs past the bust.These are $38. Add a stamped tag for $12

This is an antiqued brass watch fab. SO TOTALLY FUN! Can you tell I am excited? It is strung on chunky antique brass chain. Inside I stamped a single initial on a copper disc and let some tiny watch parts float around in there. I am going to do a few more samples. Maybe one with the words ‘tick tock’ stamped on the cooper disc ot ‘time flies’. These have a great ‘heft’ and are so different than anything else I have seen!

I made it about 20″ long. These will go for $56

  2. Yes I too love them all. Question about the picture one, do you just cut a regular sized photo and is it possible to get it on a shorter chain?? Tracy

  3. LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Maybe I’ll have to save some pennies and get you to make me a watch that says “A time to keep”. What a great idea, – both of them!

  4. Lisa, I am continually impressed by the quality of your work. You come up with new and innovative ideas. I love all the samples you just shared. Continue the good work my friend!

  5. I absolutely love the watch design! My Dad is a collector of vintage clocks….. wouldn’t this be great to give his daughters as gifts? OHHHHhhhh Dadddddyyyyy…..

  6. So amazingly creative.
    Danielle is reading over my shoulder and she loves them too.
    Could you make one for a dog collar? Just kidding!

  7. OK, Lisa- you’re going to have to stop being so creative- I can’t afford it! Would it be possible to hang two photo squares on the chain? You know, for 4 kids… I can’t play favorites! 🙂
    Beautiful pieces, Lisa, really.

  8. no way, lisa! those are awesome!!! how do you keep coming up with these ideas!!!! okay, looooove the photo one. that’s the sweetest thing for any mommy!!! and the watch one is so fab!! i love the idea of “time flies”–reminds me that we should be having fun (as in time flies when your having fun). that’s a super good reminder for me right now (two-year-old anx)!! so i really hope you make a sample of that one and take a picture of it.

    have fun!!!!
