Perfect Little Vase or Candy Dish or Candle Holder

I'm featuring this gorgeous little fused glass vase that looks so much like Raku.  The colors are just beautiful!! This particular, fused glass piece has unique markings on either side.  In the first photograph you will see what almost looks like water spots in spectacular rainbow colors.  In the second photograph you'll notice on the opposite side of the vase, the same color pattern is gradually transformed into a slight rainbow effect.  The inside is completely black.

What is awesome with a fused glass piece of art, such as this one, is that it can have a practical use such as serving as a candy dish, a flower vase (would look awesome with a bouquet of Hydrangeas, Peones or any other bulky flower), a perfect candle holder, votive holder or tea light holder and my all time favorite:  let it shine all on its own.  The best part of it, I'm offering this item as part of my Winter Clearance Sale, so now is the time to get this little beauty.  Click here for more info.

Super Clearance Sale in my Bayside Wire Designs Store

As an artist, I have to admit, I don't exactly offer clearance items too often.  I think, when it comes to art, it just doesn't seem like you mark down art.  I think this is quite the dilemma for most artists who sell their work from a storefront.  It just seems very unethical, but if we're going to somewhat succeed in making a living with our craft, we need to bend the rules, adjust to a certain degree, to the rules of retailing.  And it is for this reason, that I am offering a Super Clearance Sale in my Etsy Shop BaysideWireDesigns.

Take advantage  because it doesn't happen too often.  As most artist would agree with me, it's time consuming and expensive for materials, tools without even mentioning the design aspect of our art.  That being said, when you see art on sale, you grab it because you know you're getting a great deal!!!  The extra bonus being that the particular item is handmade with tender, love and care.

I have 45 listed items in my Super Clearance Sale Category and I will be adding more.  Click here to see my store (make sure to add to your favorites for quick access to check regularly for newly added sales.)

Different Design African, Tribal Earring Hoops Sterling Silver

I just added two more interesting, tribal earring hoop designs.  Click here for more info.  See picture of one of the designs below:

New Tribal Earrings African Hoops in Sterling Silver

These new tribal, sterling silver, African hoops are my latest creation.  I made a few pairs in various sizes.  I find them awesome!! I thinned out the part that fits through your ear hole, so that it can pass and fit comfortably.  I also added texture to them, which you can't really see in the photo, but it almost looks a lot like cut diamond.  It adds to the fun African, ethnic look.  Click here for more information on these ethnic, tribal, African beauties.

Adopt Lily the Taffy Artist Made Bear Marriage Proposal Idea

I'm really excited and happy to introduce to you: "Lily."  She's my latest handmade creation.  She has a beautiful coat of genuine Mohair, that is sort of scruffy looking, which I really like.  It gives her some character, don't you think?

I used German glass eyes and metal cotter joints for durability.  I added small glass pellets to her bum and feet, for weight (thus enabling her to stand when she's placed just right.)

Obviously, Lily, is not a toy.  She's an artistic, handmade bear for decoration or collecting.  She will make the greatest gift!  Here is a cute gift suggestion:  Add a ring to Lily's bow and offer the bear  as a gift for a really cute way to propose.  Add any kind of jewelry to her as an original way to present the jewelry gift.

Gorgeous, Choker Necklace with Smokey Quartz Wire Wrapped Pendant

I designed this smokey Quartz Choker around a gorgeous, Quartz baguette stone that I purchased.  It has elegance written all over it!

My jewelry designs are very seldom born at the work bench; it is actually quite the opposite.  After examining the stone for some time, I will ponder over it and try to figure out what setting would most suit this particular stone.

After rolling the idea around in my head, sometimes for days, it's as though a light goes and everything points in that one direction.  After finally deciding this is the best route to take, I then sit down at my work bench and begin making into a reality something that was once, only an idea.  I really hope you enjoy my sexy,  ribbon choker with Smokey Quartz, wire wrapped pendant in 14k gold filled.  It's a very stunning piece that is also very versatile and it's a one size fits all choker, ties at the back.  You may wear it more as a necklace, no need to wrap it around as I did on the photograph; you may also slip it off the ribbon and add to a longer chain as a beautiful necklace for the office.  Many great ways to wear this piece!  Click here for more info.  Go to my shop to see my Black Friday Sales, beginning today.
