I"m sure it would not be considered a copy. I agree with "inspiration". If you put the two pieces (bus on and yours) together you'd likely be amazed at how different they are.

These are really lovely Dennis. I particularily like the last ones with the double ring.
I haven't been here for quite a long time. I've just spent about 2 hours catching up on the posts. Whew! Great stuff and beautiful pieces displayed! You folks are inspiring!
Numbers 1,3 and 4 are...
love the word brangle. thanks for your comments. now i just have to keep it up to date!
Thanks very much. There are actually 3 images that rotate each time the page is loaded! A cool idea eh?
I'm pretty happy with my updated website. My web guy set it up so I can now add photos when I need to - rather then sending them to him. Very clever the way he did it too.
What do you guys think?...
Well, since I last posted I have changed a few things- I raised my prices- didn't seem to matter to the stores that carry my jewellery- they are selling just as well at the higher price.
I decided...
I use a small pickle jar on a coffee cup warmer. I love the pickle label on this jar.
How interesting. I thought I was the only one around with no formal training. I learned from the internet- forums- you tube and Ganoskin. I started out making lampwork beads and naturally progressed...
That is very gorgeous. It makes me want to run my fingers over it.
Nice work.
I really like this. One thing I noticed that I love is that where your bezel and the ring shank meet there is no line. I think I will aim for this from now on.
You can buy connectors. I know you can get them at Rio in the US....I have no clue about the UK. I think they'd be available most supply houses.
This is gorgeous! I love the design. I also think the silver ring looks great. I like the contrast.
Nice work. Definately my kind of jewellery!
Do you think that could be copper foiled and then low melt solder with soldering iron applied? That is what it reminds me of. I used to make little picture charms with microscope slide glass- copper...
Well....it IS a bracelet. Most people can figure out that size of a bracelet- 7 to 8 inches. I wouldn't worry too much about it. I think it matters more if you are putting something on Etsy or...
I vote for diy
I use a light box and lamps I purchased pretty cheaply ($79 Can dollars for all) and a black background. While my pics are not professional- they do ok. I have photoshop but only...
Like me!!! Nice FB page. Your work is gorgeous! Your photos rock.
You MADE those barrel beads? HOw on earth did you do that? What a lot of work. They are just lovely!
(thinking you must cut a long rectangle and roll it into a tube shape then cut a top and bottom...
I don't know if this is of any interest to you guys...but how I do tube settings is to solder the correct depth of tube onto a backing ,just like you'd do for a bezel setting. I leave a little flange...
Thanks Nic--- that design is made with a tool I made. Just filed a screw driver to get the interrupted bar design.

Here is a new piece from me. Forged and hammered silver. Its about 2" by 1.75 ".
Beauty! I love the setting.
I have tried this but found that I got tarnish on my "t**s"
Great pieces! Love the brooch especially. Such nice lines.
Thank you!! I will adopt it for my vocabulary! :)
