I finished two bronze hammered oak leaf necklaces today. One is on a 16 in bronze chain and the other one is on a 22 inch bronze chain. I sell these for $48 a piece, $4 shipping within the USA. I can always change the length of the chain to your specs.

Here is the 3rd of 3 ornaments that I sent out as a Christmas gift. This one is made up of two bronze ginkgo leaves with their stems wrapped together to make the loop. I saw the shapes, hammer them, then solder them into their final form. For a finish, I use wire wheels to burnish. I also made a little bronze hook for hanging.

For day 20, I'm posting ornament 2 of 3 (from the ones I shipped out yesterday.) This one has 3 bronze ivy style leaves with stems that vine together, and a matching hammered bronze hook. It's about 5 inches long.

This is a pair of bronze oak leaf earrings that I just finished for a commission. They're individually sawn and hammered to shape, then burnished with a small wire wheel. These ones have sterling silver earwires. day 18.

Day 13 - I made a bronze willow leaf ornament as a gift for my son and daughter-in-law because they told me that the willow was their favorite tree. I will accept for similar work.

day 11 - I finished a bronze ginkgo leaf ornament to add to a family holiday gift shipment. I've run out of money to buy presents, so I hope they appreciate more handmade leaves.

One more long tendril chime and this hangy-bangy sculpture will be done. My oldest daughter requested wind chimes for Christmas and this is the intuitive witchy kinetic sculpture that I've come up with.

Art Advent Calendar Day 8. One photo is a collage of images showing the process creating some silver shamrocks with chasing and repoussé. The 2nd photo shows a pair of the shamrock earrings. I made these in 2012.
