Specifically, between staying at the hotel, and staying at home during the construction. We are here at home during the day, and then i pack everything up and off we go to the hotel for the night. Pokey, our contractor says he should be done with the bathroom by Friday, and then he will do some work in the master bedroom, which should take a few more days...Not sure if this means we can move back into the house for the night as of Saturday, but that is when we have the hotel room rented until.... So, in honor of that "hard place", all jewelry created so far this week has been photographed on some of my favorite native rocks that live out on my deck....
These are tiger iron beads, hand chained, and the center piece is soo joo jade. The carved piece has little animals running around the center circle...
The oval beads in this bracelet are called Raj jasper (i suspect they are just better quality rhyolite specimens) and the round beads are rhyolite...one of my favorite stones...No matter how many pictures i took, i could not capture the richness of the color in these beads...
This bracelet is made of purple fluorite and amazonite...
And this necklace is made of jade and rhyolite, with a jade centerpiece carved into a gold fish...The matching earrings are jade too. I am almost finished chaining together a chalcedony faceted necklace with matching earrings, as a donation to The Mohawk and Hudson River Humane Society's Art Saves Animals Auction It was an honor to be asked to contribute to this cause as i have always supported this organization and have adopted many of the animals that have made my life happier and richer from this place. For more information visit their website here... I'll post a photo of the finished piece before i wrap it up and bring it to the shelter...Hope everyone is doing fine and being as creative as your surroundings allow you to be!
