#FacebookArtJewelryChallenge Day 1: Spiral Pendants

This week a couple of my colleagues and friends tagged me in a challenge that’s been going around Facebook — sounds fun, I’m game!  Beth Cyr (a college classmates from the University of Georgia metals program) and Parker Brown (my friend from SNAG conferences past, and occasional co-conspirator of nerdy art ventures) both challenged me to post images of my work for 5 days straight, and tag another artist to join in.

Today is Day 1, so here we go!  This is a loose collection of Spiral Pendants that I have made in the last 5 years.  The first one was a commission piece to re-make a client’s opal ring into a necklace.  Since I keep getting orders for more it has turned into a series.
