Great Idea For Large Bracelets! ARM BLING!

Hi guys! I Just wanted to share an idea that I just finished illustrating with a photo of my newest "Rise" bracelet photo. It was created to show an idea that came to my head. That idea? Is what can be done with bracelets that some may love, but are just too big for their wrist. Arm bracelets!

Drew this because aside from being a visual artist and love an excuse to draw, I couldn't model this idea because I am not a slender woman, so these bracelets would not fit my upper arm! But, I know there are ladies out here who would like to wear arm bling, not limiting bracelets to their wrists.

I didn't intend to make these bracelets and the ones to come so large. They grew in length once I added the clasps! Leaving me with some extra large bracelets some, too large for plus size ladies such as myself. But, perfect as an upper or forearm decoration!

Thanks for stopping by!

NEW! NEW! "RISE" Red And Gold. Beaded Crocheted Gold Tone Wire Bracelet

Having my enjoyment of working in wire recently re-ignited, I crocheted a series of crocheted wire bracelets using very pretty bead combinations. Some of these are large enough to be worn on some ladies upper arm or high up on your forearm for a really unique look!
Take a look at my newly listed piece of jewellery! Since I can only share five photos on Etsy, ABC blog is where I can offer many more photos of my handmade jewellery! So click Here to see "RISE" in my shop and look below for the added detail pics.

SNEAK PEEK - New Beaded Crocheted Wire Bracelets!!

Summer Flew By....

These past few months have been filled with my passion. What is that you ask? Why, creating of course! While our street was being torn apart for the last few months, I worked away on designing and creating several new polymer clay pieces. www.heartfullycreating.blogspot.com is my creativity blog where I seek to share and encourage creativity in artists of all ages. That is where more details about my creating processes can be found. The pieces have yet to be assembled into marketable jewellery because it takes me a while to not just create the beads and cabochons, but equal time sanding, waxing and buffing them to a nice buttery finish. Oh and I haven't written about this at HeArtfully Creating yet, but it took even longer when I discovered polyurethane glazing peels off as easily as it went on. Which meant I had to and still have to, sand away all the surfaces and refinishes them.... coming to the conclusion that the finish for my polymer pieces from now on, will either be in their natural glory or sanded, waxed and buffed. They actually do not require any finishes anyway but, sometimes you just want that extra special surface.

On that Note...
I recently have had my interest in wire working re-ignited. That means I have completed some hand crocheted wire and beaded bracelets. Most of my earlier pieces sold out long ago so I thought maybe making some new pieces might be a good idea. As well, I hope to create, design and sell some new wire working techniques in the near future. So again, Subscribe to keep updated on any new ABC activities! Plus, I just appreciate any support from persons interested in my art work :o)

Take A Peek!
Here are the detailed photos of some of my newest crocheted wire and bead bracelets! As they are listed in my shop, I will be posting the direct links. For now, was just excited to share these.
Enjoy!

See you soon!

Been A While...Some New Pieces To Come!

Sorry, it has been a while since posting anything new. My computer broke down and that meant transition time. Learning to use a laptop for me has been trying. But, here I am finally. Just wanted to start by sharing the link to the beautiful multi strand polymer clay and glass bead necklace. It was featured as a Sneak Peek a way back and as life happened, computer croaked, I never got to post that actual listing in my Etsy Shop. So here it is (just click here to go there!)

I am excited to dive back into sharing and listing some new pieces that I have been working on over these past months. Make sure to subscribe if you want to be the first to see anything new at A Bergie Creation.

SATURDAY SNEAK PEEK: Turquoise. Blues. And Greens. Polymer Clay, Gemstone, and Glass Multi strand Necklace

My computer has been misbehaving so I haven't been able to post items lately. But by the Grace of God it is working at this moment :o) So here is a sneek peek at a new multi strand necklace that I am about to list in my shop. It is gorgeous peacock palette. Turquoises, blues, and greens with golden shimmer and hues. As well, it was designed using primarily all handmade polymer clay beads, by me of course :o) And to accent it, I created handmade golden with glitter bead cones (about 50mm long by about 20mm across) on the ends, where the strands are connected in a cluster. As well, turquoise bead nuggets about 3mm-4mm were interspersed along with small glass seed and cube beads that range from 2mm-3mm in size. I love this piece. A few small (about 4mm up to 8mm in length) polymer leaf beads were added for more interest as well. A glossy glaze was applied to the surface.
Depending on the lighting, the beads have a shimmer in some areas and other areas are matt with the glossy glaze.

All five strands were suspended on gold tone small and large oval link chain and a beautiful toggle clasp. It can be resized if the customer asks.
Here is Frieda now listed here.

Here are some detailed photos, more to come as my computer allows me to upload them.

PINK PALETTE PIECES AND YAY! CANADA POST IS A GO....No mail interruptions

Pink Palette Pieces!
For fun, I thought I would feature some of my pieces where the beautiful colour pink and all it's intensities and variations are present. Just click on the titles to be taken to the actual listing where there is much more detail about each piece.
Behind the Scenes....
I have been spending our brief North Western Ontario. Canada summer by working on polymer clay pieces that are gifts for the www.heartfullycreating.blogspot.com

ones I love. Howard the Turtle, is a favourite character of my husband's. So a polymer clay turtle names, Howard, has been something that I have been working on for about a month now. It has been helping me learn more about sculpting and forming three dimensional figures. Because I don't sell these pieces in my shop, you can see them at my creativity blog,
Today, I hope to post a new article there showing his finishing touches. Next project, some new polymer clay jewelry pieces for my shop. Canada Post was being threatened with a strike or lock out so I had been holding off waiting to see if shipping would be impacted. Thankfully, all is a go and they will not be stopping the flow of mail! YAY! Now I can focus on my shop without worrying about that topic. An vital one when you have an online shop!! :o)
Hope you enjoy today's PINK PALETTE PIECES!!
