This is my first Blog Ring Post for the It's Better Handmade Guild. It's featuring DaffyDill on ArtFire. She's from Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. I've always wanted to visit there...it seems so nice and deffo far from here on the East Coast.
She's got TONNES of shineys for us magpies to drool over, from bracelets and anklets to wire-wrapped stones, earrings and pendants.
The first thing that caught my eye was on the first page: Goldstone wrapped in Copper Wire. Deffo drool-worthy. Dontcha think?
I'm one of those nut jobs who LOVE orange and there isn't very many of us.
I LOVE this Pendant also. More Copper Wire but with Dyed Blue/Green Agates. Mmm.
And it comes on a Velvet Necklace. I've never tried Wire Wrapping, but I know folks who do. Need to be a lot more coordinated than I am for sure.
I can picture wearing this next one with a classic white linen dress on your yacht sailing around the "Vinyahd" with Thurston Howell the Third and Lovie. hehe
Living and growing up on a beach makes you appreciate the ocean and we used to find Starfish alot. :(
This next item makes me wanna cha-cha with my Ford Focus, Xicohtencatl. She was made in Hermosilla, Mexico which is why she has an Aztec name. Mexico has bright colours way back in her history and I ADORE Diego Rivera's murals. He'd deffo gift Frieda with this one:
DaffyDill has a blog which is found here:http://www.daffydelights.blogspot.ca/

Thanks for blogging it's better handmade and I love blue and orange stuff too. Especially burnt orange (as in the lillies).
