I don't normally do found object jewelry, but I really liked these little keys that my friends were tossing around at the game store, so I laid claim to them. I paired them with some of the lampwork that I bought from Margaret over the weekend, and created today's Daily Design Challenge piece. I call them Keys to Faerie.As I was writing their description, I was struck with inspiration for a steampunk persona -- a faerie hunter. Along the lines of Lady Cottington from Brian Froud's books, I could be a slightly unhinged lady in search of faerie folk. Or plagued by them. It would be FUN! I really do need to learn how to sew.
Oh, those are very nice! The translucence of the beads to the solidity of the keys!
ReplyDeleteI like those earrings! The keys look light enough for daily wear and the beads are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteThank you all :)
ReplyDeleteDoris, the keys are very light, the earrings don't feel significantly heavier than the pair I made last month with the cane glass and leaves.
