My friend Michelle sent me a necklace with matching bracelet, a ring and some pretty earrings last month in exchange for making her daughter a doll. I have since been fretting over taking pictures of them all, but can’t get many good ones. Jewelry is hard to photograph! I took some pictures last week- no good. I took some pictures Monday- OK. Then today I found this sweet little polaroid app over at Thimbly Things (she has a sweet new camera, I’m so jealous!) and decided to show you a few pictures.
The necklace, matching bracelet and ring were all made by Michelle. The ring is made of a delicate silver wire bent into a swirl with a blue bead attached. I’m so amazed at the things she comes up with! Which reminds me, I need to take a picture of the other necklace she made for me, I’m such a slacker!!
The necklace is made up of individual bead-sets on wire. The wire has loops on either end, and the bead-sets are all attached together. I don’t know the techinal term for this, but it looks like it was tons of work! Thank you, Michelle!
These are the dichroic glass earings she sent me. They are pretty and glittery, which was hard to capture in a photograph (with my camera, anyway).
These polaroids are fun. And then I just had the thought to label them in my paint.net.

Aww, the pics look great!! Thanks for posting those! I think I forgot to take pictures of the stuff which made me mad. I still need to make myself a necklace like that. I’m so glad you like it all!
OMG, that last picture is so ADORABLE, I cannot believe how big he’s getting!!
