Black Widow Felted Necklace

Finally it feels like spring here and yet I'm busy felting and creating new "stuff" for the upcoming 2013/2014 Fall/Winter season.  One of the new additions to the High Caliber Line will be OOAK Felted Jewelry. Keeping in the tongue in cheek tradition, I created "Black Widow". She's bold, (of course) and big, (of course again). After all, why wear it if you can't see it? She's comprised of  3 black felted balls which, (of course again) are embellished with lots of glitz to include hand sewn crystals, silver firestar, tulle, bamboo, tencel and finished off with a black lava bead and a huge black crystal spider with red crystal eyes.  All this glitz and glam hangs from a black chain.

 

 

 

Here Comes " Not So Mellow Yellow"

"Not So Mellow Yellow" is my new hand felted tunic. She was made with soft merino wool, hand dyed yellow silk, black silk, black and white silk charmeuse in a graphic print, black tulle, bamboo top, various beads, wool nepps and black firestar.  I think she's a little bold, vibrant, messy, fun, and maybe even a bit whacky. A lot like me, I guess!
