experimenting more with my fern designs

I have been piercing out more fern designs...

I have been making earrings...

The fine silver plate shapes of my earrings on my soldering block

I am not fond of the edges of the earrings and these still need big development. I find the one side of the earring far too straight.

Fern Designs in process

I decided to try and make some ferns out of silver to use as elements in creating earrings and some interesting things happenes as the ferns grew ( as they were pierced out)...

I enjoy how the fern has become 3D. It has movement and looks as if it is growing. I want to keep capturing this feeling in the rest of the jewellery I create. It is very delicate and this is what I am wanting to carry through in my jewellery. There are so many different aspects and different angles that this fern coming out of the silver can be explored in.

I'v always loved this design. It is on the cover of my prayer journal. And it just so happens to be eco friendly:)
