Art Every Day Month, 2011

October 30. Is it really the end of October already?! Unbelievable.


The end of October means that it’s about time to flip the calendar to November. (Now, that's profound, isn't it?)

November is Art Every Day Month, led by Leah Piken Kolidas over at Creative Every Day.

Have you done Art Every Day Month in the past? Are you doing it this year? Leave a comment with a link to your blog so I can follow along.

Hand-Painted Necklaces

Can I just tell you how much fun I’ve been having making these necklaces!

I’ve always admired art jewelry when I’ve been at shows, so I just had to give it a try.

These are hand painted – yes, each one is unique. No prints or copies here.

The painting is done with acrylic paints, and then sealed with a triangular-shaped piece of glass. The edges are rounded and soft, and the top is ever so slightly domed. They’re really pretty – at least I think so.

Each one comes with a silver-plated chain, 18 inches long, which is a nice length to wear.

They’re available in my Etsy shop, Necklaces section :
