OK Folks, this is our first contest. All members are welcome to submit a photo.
Please limit to 1 entry per person. You may post multiple pictures to show different views/angles, but they must be of that same entry.

 thcelebrate

Rules are simple, it has to be something festive, or for the holidays. It doesn't necessarily need to be for Christmas. It can be maille, beads, leather, you name it, if it's crafty or artsy you can submit. Please keep entries safe for public viewing.

The contest will run for 2 months, from now until December 15th.
Polls will then be open until December 31st, which will be open for everyone to vote.
In the event of a tie, we will then have another poll to determine the winner.

OK here's mine.

Christmas ornament in 1.2mm & 1mm silver plated wire, 7,6,5,4 & 3mm ID with captured glass beads. Whirlybird variation (and a real PITA to do). The large outer links are doubled every other one and the smaller one has the doubled ones going through each other. This was to get the Whirlybirds totally solid.

Alright. Now I've finished my piece for this contest and also just for Christmas, here it is. Yes a Christmas dreamcatcher. Rings are Brass in 18ga 1/4, 18ga 3/16, 20ga 1/8 and 20ga 3/16. The red and green are enameled copper in 20ga 3/16 and 20ga 1/8. Just two weaves, Japanese 12 in 2 and Helm Chain. The centre star piece came from Target along with the bottom brass stars. The craft ring is brass and is an 8" one. The crystals with the pearls are of course swarovski, Siam and Emerald Green. Good luck everyone.



Close Up of middle.



Oh Corvus, I like your fancy decoration, it's adorable and stunning. azn

I'm insane. I don't have to explain myself.

Well, I didn't come up with anything else like I thought I would, so here we go. Unless having it previously posted disqualifies it?

This isn't specifically Christmas but it is festive and would make a lovely ornament for any lady's neck.  thumbsup

I've made two of these so far and I'm very proud of them. I made them specifically so that a person could remove the cover to change the bulb. In a house with two cats and two ferrets the idea of having to reassemble the cage due to a broken bulb just scared me. =)
