the ornaments I made


Here are some of the ornaments I mentioned making in my last post.

These ornaments are made from hammered copper and brass, with accents of wire of various metals, and glass beads.

Here are a few hammered spirals that didn’t yet make it to the finished ornament stage. But I like the way they look.

  1. so cool!

    i do a bit of beading, and have a thing-a-ma-jig to do some wire stuff(but haven’t used it yet…) but haven’t done any hammering at all, but now I am feeling all inspired and stuff, because your stuff is GORGEOUS! any tips for a newbie?

  2. Those are absolutely gorgeous! They will make spectacular gifts.

    I hope you have a joyous and peaceful holiday, Alejna!

  3. I second azahar’s comment. If so inclined, you could *so* sell your handiwork in Etsy. They’re magnificent.
