Taking orders

I am currently taking orders on the very first piece in my flamenco line. This piece I've named Prisilla. :) Although there will be more they probably won't make an appearance until after Christmas.

The stats: 2 1/2 inches, swarovski crystals, $15 not including shipping. Your choice of color. Please leave a comment or email me if you are interested in a pair. They are very light weight earrings and are comfortable to wear although long.

Flamenco line preview

I haven't really started on what I call my "flamenco line" of jewelry. I have been experimenting and I came up with one style I really like. So ... here a few photos of different colors.







I will be posting more as the months go by. I am trying to have a complete collection out for the spring of 2010.

Cameos and brass

I have finally gotten around to taking photos and editing them to post. None of these things you see here are for sale yet but perhaps in the near future they will be. I am currently working on many diffrent pieces and will show you photos throughout the month and into September. I'm not only getting ready to vend but I'm thinking of halloween style crafts as well as christmas.

Here are a few of the things I've been working on ...



Adjustable Cameo Ring (black & white)



Cameo earrings with gold pearl rice bead.



Cameo earrings with emerald glass bead.



Brass filigree bracelet with peridot glass beads.



Brass heart necklace with swarovski pearls and crystals



Gold toned coined braclet.

I will be making more coined jewelry soon.

New designs

I was able to work on a few things last night. I created two bracelets and one necklace. I think they came out lovely but of course I would say that right? :) I will be posting some photos of them more then likely later this afternoon. Need to charge up my camera battery.

My goal is to create at least two pieces every day. Perhaps more depending on how much time I have. I think Sunday's are the most productive day for me. I have until September 19th. I think I can do it if I work on something everyday.

Finally!

I've had the time to update www.adorntonia.com AND adorntonia.etsy.com . I am waiting on a few shipments to come in with supplies I need to get started on some unique pieces. These I will post photos of but they will only make it onto Etsy/Web site if they are not sold, when I vend in September.

So many other things coming up it's quite exciting and I can't wait to show you what I make once I actually do it.

Please keep visiting this blog as well as my etsy and web site.

Re-haul

Tonight I plan to do a total re-haul of my etsy account and my web site. I need to rearrage everything and put them in the correct place. I also plan to put up a few new pieces that I've meant to do months ago. Depending on how long this re-haul thing takes me, I might even work on a few new pieces.

That's what's up with Adorntonia. Stay tuned for more updates!!

Been a while

It's been a while since I've updated this blog at all. I've been really busy with many things and haven't had a chance to take time to make many new pieces. I have a ton of ideas that I will be working towards creating in the coming months. I have the idea to make a new line for Flamenco(spanish) dancers. It's really an exciting venture I think. Who better to create these types of items then someone who is a dancer herself and knows what they want/need. At least I think so. Perhaps a belly dance jewelry line in the works as well, since I will be vending at a belly dance performance in the next few months.

I will be posting up some new items as soon as I get my camera back (my boyfriend is borrowing it). I made a beautiful antique brass necklace/earring set for a silent auction and I have to say everyone loved it. It was beautiful antique brass with ruby crystals. I really loved it and I'm sorry now I didn't take photos of it. :(

Well I'm off to enjoy what's left of the weekend but I will be back sometime during the week with new updates.
