And So It Begins…

I’m beginning to sketch design ideas for my next piece. I received a gorgeous pendant from India as a Xmas present and my idea is to integrate it with jewelry pieces that I will create adding fossils and gemstones to the mix. The sketch above is just one of several ideas I have. I’m carefully sorting through my stash looking for elements that will not only enhance, but that will also be implemented as talismans. I’m in no rush. I consider time spent doing this to be a very pleasant aspect of the creation process. I’m also amazed at how many components I come across that I forgot I had!
