I'm still enjoying the Spring Flowers...
Everything is so fragile and floating, I'd like to keep for a while the Beauty of Flower, at least...

With Love,

My latest obsession - hair flowers. Time ago I've made Cherry Blossoms, after - Apple Blossoms and Magnolia, now I'm working on a Cymbidium Orchid, Water Lily and Gerbera.
I'm melting in the Blooming Spring...

Have a shiny and wonderful day!

Odete OOAK Statement Necklace


Last week I've tried a new medium for my flowers - cold porcelain clay. What can I say? For some projects like Ranunculus, blooming Roses or another type of petal-full flowers, cold porcelain clay is better than polymer clay. It's pretty sticky, but petals could be made very thin - polymer clay doesn't allow it. For a flower like Hydrangea, Daffodil or Lily polymer clay definitely is better.

Enjoy!

Portugal is blooming! Blossoms are everywhere, I'd like to keep this Beauty forever... but just a few days and the blooming trees will get their green dresses and The Blossoms will fly away... till next Spring.

Have a wonderful week!

The Day Before You Came



...and turning out the light I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night
and rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain
the day before you came...
/old ABBA's song/

Daisy Series. Vintage Inspired Earrings


Finally I've made it! The idea to create this kind of earrings was in my heart (mind and shoulders, too:)) since last year, but unfortunately I never have enough time to make all what I wish (and need!)...

Here I've used clay cabochons and attached tiny flower petals and Swarovski rhinestones. The metal base is made from very old Vintage stamping tool and the ear-wires are Sterling Silver.

Enjoy!

The Power of Love


I was creating the bracelet with roses - so I think Rose, the Queen of Flowers, represents us Love clearly - from its beginning (rosebuds) until full blossom. Love is like a flower: if you don't take care it will die... Love like a Rose has its prickles and greenness, beauty and sensitivity. It could make your day heavenly and it could bite you, too...

I've used seven deep pink pearly Fimo polymer clay (classic & effect) roses: largest is just a little bit under 1" in diameter (23/24mm), two roses are about half inch, two of them are a bit more than half inch. The rosebuds are about half inch tall. There are four veined rose leaves, too. The roses are centre drilled (except rosebuds) and attached with sterling silver headpins onto sterling silver filled chain. For roses I've used sterling silver oxidized and hand polished beadcaps. Also I've used Swarovski crystal Fuchsia bicones, Ink black rondelles and four big black onyx rounds. All findings are sterling silver.


The Power of Love

The whispers in the morning of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling by like thunder now
As I look in your eyes
I hold on to your body and feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
A love that I could not forsake

'Cause I am your lady and you are my man.
Whenever you reach for me I'll do all that I can

Lost is how I'm feeling lying in your arms
When the world outside's too much to take -
That all ends when I'm with you.
Even though there may be times
It seems I'm far away
But never wonder where I am 'cause I am always by your side

'Cause I am your lady and you are my man.
Whenever you reach for me I'll do all that I can

We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn 'bout the power of love!

The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear suddenly
The feeling that I can't go on
Is light-years away

'Cause I am your lady and you are my man...

Many many years ago (oh... it was 1980's) Jennifer Rush touched my heart by this wonderful song and still when I listen it my heart is flying :)

Happy Valentines!!!
