Finally used my felt

I finally got around to completing a project with the roving I purchased from Copperpot on Etsy.
I also used the rest of the ceramics beads I had made late last year.

You can find this in my shop

It was tempting to just keep it! But I still have plenty of that roving left so its all good. :) I also priced this a bit cheaper than what it probably should be because I know a lot of people are feeling the economy, so it's a pretty darn good deal.
Off to finish another necklace! :D

*In reference to my last post, I think from now on I will both reply to comments on the commenters blog, as well as my own so that new readers can see that I do reply to just about every comment here.

Anywho, a few months ago I was looking for inspiration for my final project for my jewelry/metals class. One of the artists I found was Natalya Pinchuk who uses mixed media mainly consisting of plastic and felt, as well as enameled metal, polymer clay, sterling silver, and even a bycicle intertube. Here are some of her pieces I really love:







You can see more either on Natalya Pinchuk's main website, or right here.

On a related note, I really need to send a blank cd to my metals professor so she can send me the images she took of my work! I also need ot get photo's of my final ceramics work. :p
