Spring 2011 Mixed Lines

Baby Photo Pendants with VKS intials  www.alliem.com


 The newest part of Allie M. is the use of glass.  I started with sea glass that I found in St. Croix and then started experimenting with other media....mosaics, tiles, misc. glass.  The ideas are endless.  I think that this technique of bezeling is a creative way to design a piece of jewelry that has a unique appeal.  I love the way that the pearls (the little bumps on the top of the pendant) add a texture.  The best part of this technique is that it allows you to be able to add photos on one side and or a quote on the other.  Great for Mother's Day ideas!!  Currently, I am using 3/4" x 3/4" square glass for the photos.
