break

So I am back, sorry about the long pause, I've have been busy freelancing, boy its real crazy right now, I've been working for different jewelry companies helping out with their giant orders. looks like everyone is back in business! and so am I :) hopefully I can start working on my semi high end jewelry collection.
let me show you a bit of my work:
 This piece is a one of a kind bunny skull I made for a friend for her birthday. I filled one eye in with cold enamel and the other has a glass stone! what do you think? I have been thinking of re doing it but just a bit different.
This is my Jordi Ring, it kind of reminded one of my friends of the Star Trek The Next Generation character.
Its made out of Sterling silver and it has a clear orange acrylic slice I formed especially for this ring.
I love it! it fits perfectly on my finger and its very comfortable to wear and people seem to really swarm towards it :)
OK well that's all for today I have to run off  to rest for before another big day at Gaugenyc.com His letters are the best I have ever seen, they are all hand crafted right in his work shop Location in Brooklyn. check out his web page, he is also on etsy.com
 ta ta for now.

little bit on jewelry I produced back in the day.

These are my gear-rings ;) (gear earings).I also made them into a few rings and pendants, all my rings sold and I also sold a few of these, I also made a couple with chain. all of them are sterling silver, I wish I could work with precious metal but for now I'm pretty happy to plate my jewels, they come out looking so pretty.

 I would like to recreate this one. I made 2, one with green glass beads and one with rose quartz (the one in the photo) I think it was a good idea, maybe I'll work on it a bit more later in the year.


my skull pendant, I was very proud of this one, I made one with out a bow and one with horns, although I didn't sell any, my friends were really happy that I gave them out as gifts. The one pictured here I pretty much wore it almost to death, I painted the bow with a metalic pink cold enamel, after 10 years its still holding strong :)

Here is a the skull with out the bow, I hand made all the spikes and I used black/grey fresh water pearls.
Here is the green glass one, all three were from the same design, they're all sterling silver and I handmade all the spikes and charms :)









I'v been thinking of a great idea to produce resin filled jewelry, So I'm going to give it a shot. I have been reading up on how to create better jewelry products, just to make it more fun and exciting for myself. Art Jewelry Magazine really is full of great techniques!

I made these about 10 years ago and i had no idea how to keep the resin from turning yellow so i trashed the design. and now I've figured it out! so if only i can get my hands on someones Illustrator I can recreate these cute head pins and see if people like them. what do you think?

My Blogging Begins

Hi there

First time blogger here, I'm not really sure what to say, oh well here goes nothing :)
Well I am currently a freelancer, and by that I mean I don't have a job :(
I spent alot of time looking for gigs but because of todays economy I'm not sure if I will be
able to find something any time soon.
I guess its up to me to make a job for myself so I started selling my costume jewelery in differant venues, such as Otto's Shrunken head, Artist and fleas and Motor City. I've sold at other various places also.
I now have a website hopefully i can keep it up before my bank account runs out of cash. YIKES!
anyway here's my website, its still new  so its not perfect but its something.
http://lunastarcollections.com       so check it out, let me know what you think!

ta ta for now
