This month our October theme - eyes, was chosen by the wonderful Laney Mead and I have had such a roller coaster of emotions making my piece!
I had these elements blue tacked on my wall for so long, but I never got around to making the piece as I was, well ....scared! This has been the most complicated, the largest and the most expensive piece I have made to date and I was rather worried I would mess it up.
I never normally draw designs but I thought this might help keep me calm! I was hoping for a magical talisman kind of look?!?!
After two solid days of sawing soldering and hoping, it worked!!!
I still need to make some kind of chain and I may well add more LOS and some more texture as I want it looking older and well loved!
But I'm really happy with how it turned out. It has 14mm amethyst, wolf eyes by Laura Mears, a Tiffany stone, some petrified wood by Designer Cabochons and some touches of gold, plus there is a 14mm moonstone on the back....
With a hand sawn wolf and a cast silver Crinoid star.
Thank you Laney with out your challenge I never would have got around to making this piece!!!
