A slow week

It has been a slow week. I have been in the studio and working on the computer this week. Fall has been beautiful, it is one of my favorite seasons. The colours and the raining down of leafs, and the shadow that they create through the sun. And then there is when the leafs dance across a parking lot in what looks like a little tornado. But atlas it coming to an end. Here is Massachusetts we had our first taste of winter last night and this morning. Snow falling and cars covered in ice this morning.

Black and white letters

This is a fabulous new necklace. The stone is black and white(not easily seen in photos) it is bezel set and the bottom piece is a hollow form. It has a beautiful texture created using my vintage stamps. I have oxidized it to bring it out. It hangs from a 16 inch snake chain. It sits on the most perfect spot on the neckline.

Sprout 5

This is a great small ring. I love it. It is from my sprout line. It will bring alot of attention, even though it is a smallish ring.

Working away

Here I am working away. Steve took these great shots of me. I love the top one. I think that everyone should work right by  window. This is were I am most at home, most calm and most stress free. Ahh the studio.

Quartz earrings

I love these earrings. They have hand made ear hooks that are squared. The top piece is sterling silver that has been roller printed on both sides, and then oxidized to bring out the texture. And the stone is a hand hammered quartz. I think that these are spectacular earrings. They remind me of the moon. They are simple and elegant. They will go with whatever event you go to or outfit you wear. These are a must have. And also a great gift to give, anyone would love these, you can do no wrong with these. I know having to think about the holidays before Halloween, it is mind numbing. Email if you are interested at lcarlsonjewelry@gmail.com

The show

The top photo is my friend Lisa who was a great help to me last night. Thank you so much Lisa, you were amazing. And the bottom photo is me behind my display.
It was held in factory that makes wire fencing very interesting and it made for a great back drop. The factory was in one of the many old mill/factory buildings that are all over the area. I love them I think that they are beautiful.
It was a good turn out for bad weather. Thank you all for stopping by it was a great night.

Setting up

Here we are setting up. Steve and Quinn where a great help for carrying in all of the boxes and tubs. Quinn was a great help setting up the display. Inside the venue was all of these great old cars and trucks that Quinn loved. Setting up went smoothly.

Heritage Starlight Celebration Tonight!!!

Come and see all of my work at the Heritage Starlight Celebration. It is tonight at 7. Please contact the Blackstone Valley Chamber of Commerce for more information. I hope to see you there.

Pearl Necklace

I love this necklace. It is made out three pieces if recycled sculptural silver and beautiful black or peacock fresh water pearls. It is a fantastic piece, it is amazing on. It is one of those necklace that get you noticed. It is very classic and contemporary all at the same time. A piece that should be in everyone's collection.

Necklace with gemstones nuggets

I just finished this necklace. It is rhodolite garnet and hand hammered quartz. The silver is made out of recycled silver and made into this great sculptural focal point. It has a toggle clasp and it sits perfectly on the neck and is very comfortable to wear. I love it, it came out amazing. See it in person on Friday at the Heritage Starlight Celebration (riverdale mill).

Quinn at his bench

Here is Quinn painting at his bench. He loves that he has his own bench in my studio. When we were working on it he kept asking for one. Now he can "work" with me. He seems right at home in the studio. He comes in and turns on his light and gets right to work. So very cute.

Tourmaline Ring

This is a spectacular ring that I made yesterday. It is sterling silver with a very high polish. It is hollow form with a bezel set blue tourmaline. I love tourmaline, it is my all time favorite stone. It comes in so many different colors.

Heritage Starlight Celebration
