Handmade Jewelry Top 5 Fan Favorites of 2014

Well, it's towards the end of the year so I thought it would be fun to compile some top five lists with my handmade jewelry and more. There were definitely some fan favorites this year, so let's start with that.

5. Fans loved the detailed work of my woven pieces. I got the most "how do you see those beads!" comments for this pattern I used from ellad2.com. I will definitely need new glasses in the new year!

4.  I love natural stones. My fans like them too. I think this year's favorite was Fancy Jasper. It's got a fabulous array of colors from dark green to light mauve. I like to try to find patterns where I can show off all the beautiful earthy colors. This pattern by Carolyn Cave does the trick.

3. This Fall I brought on a truly gifted wire wrapper, Lennie Javinett out of Old Lyme, Connecticut, to add new life to my array of pendants. Her work gets tons of compliments at art shows and is surely a fan favorite. Look for more to come from Lennie!

2.  This year I really did feel the need to diversify. I also brought on the up and coming artist, Doreen Henriques.   She took over my wrap bracelet line and added fun charms to dangle. But the fan favorite, beyond a doubt, is her owl key chain. We cannot keep them in stock!

1.  Ooo,we are at number one already. How exciting! Shall I get on with it? Black and silver pendants. Here's one in my own pattern:

Here's one where I used a pattern from ellad2.com:
