Sterling Silver spiral with sea glass and Swarovski elements



So much fun creating these! I love sea glass and spirals. The first time I worked with sea glass as noted earlier in the blog, I worked them in craft wire and a much thinner gauge wire. Tonight I utilized a 20G wire that was fun to work with. I found the wire went where I wanted it and then stayed!

I used a hammering technique to give the spiral a nice look. Half of the necklaces made tonight have a Swarovski element,  the other half have a second spiral. Still struggling with how to build a fair price that covers my expenses and does not make one have to be a millionaire to purchase a hand crafted Brigid's Fire peice of Jewelry.
