Blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries... I'm waiting for the arrival of spring fruit with great enthusiasm! I love to paint from spilling over gently pink to dark purple when I go to the market. With this inspiration, I made a new necklace.

Crocheted beads, self-hardening hand-painted clay beads, wood beads provide diverse structure ...

42.51inches/108cm long

Baby pink, fuchsia, lavender, lilac, purple, brown...

Enjoy the scent of the coming spring!

Good luck :))))

Wok in progress...

Today, I show you a glimpse of my new creation :)
It's been a while since
I did not do this kind of necklace -
crocheted around silver wire cord.
My kids are on the short holidays of several days,
so we all have much less commitment.
Thanks to this ocassion,
yesterday I spent a whole afternoon
in crocheting new necklace :)))
I hope I'll finish it in next couple of days!

See some more works in progress on beautiful Small Things blog.

Yellow-grey textile Necklace

This necklace is composed by crocheted and felt beads. I used the handmade wet felt technique and crocheted over wood beads in this necklace.

Very comfortable and lightweight!

Tribe Brooch nO.2




Feminine and a little eccentric brooch with an ethnic touch... My inspiration was Australian Aboriginal art, especially their painting on wood and bones.

How to make a Mannequin Display

For each of us who are engaged in making jewelry,
it is good if you have the mannequin display.
On mannequin display is much easier
to make photos and
to show our jewelry.
Lately, I've thought to get a mannequin display and
see what I found - an excellent tutorial of how I can make it myself!



You can find this excellent tutorial here :)

Inspiration!

Each season brings a variety of forms from nature that can inspire us.

Arriving autumn days bring new inspiration...

In a recent walk I picked a few fruits of the wild pomegranate and made a new necklace, inspired by the beautiful shapes and colors ...

I hope that you will not find new inspiration in coming weeks.

Keep in mind that it don't need to be just shapes and colors:

Leaves rustling under your feet,

a sudden downpour of rain,

the smell of fresh morning ...

cozy warmth of the sun...

Whether you are an artist or not,

I hope that you will be inspired to find beauty in the coming days.

My happy customer

It always makes me so happy when I receive a nice feedback from a customer.

Thank you dear Maya!

Color My Day Necklace

This necklace will color your day :)

Made with love and joy...

One of a kind...

My and my daughter's creative space :)

My daughter had a fever today :(

I wanted to cheer her up and suggested her to make felt beads with me.
Despite the headache, she has accepted with a great enthusiasm :))
While chicken soup for her cooked on the stove, we were drinking tea and made some felt goodies :)

The most important component for this felt goodies, between wool, water and soap, is LAUGHING. We were talking about fun things and recalled
funny events.

These were those moments when you wish to stop time.

Time has passed very quickly and the most important - the fever is gone!

Sometimes the days that start bad

end up happily and with lots of smiles.

Happy day to you!

New necklace in my shop

Remember decoupage tutorial I've been posted couple of weeks ago?
I've combined those decoupaged beads with several crocheted pieces, polymer clay bead and one glass bead. Black-white-red color combo is one of my favorites :)





Just listed in my Etsy shop :)

My creative space - Inspiration

Look at these horned and spooky-looking black creatures. We call them "sea devils".

But, trust me, they really don't deserve this scary name. They are very fragile seeds that river Bojana brings from nearby Skadar Lake to Adriatic Sea. We collect them on the beach, but very rarely (Oh yes, my five-year daughter reminds me to note that this is her little collection :)))

Beauty of the area from which these seeds comes from is simply incredible...


The interesting shapes of these little creatures was my inspiration to make some new beads.




Nature always surprise us with its unrepeatable beautiful forms.
How wonderful!
