✨ This was my vision...shape-wise that is! Extra wire gave me the opportunity to form the centre spiral that I couldn't form on the pink version.
The rest of it was more of a result of creative intuition. Testing ideas as I went to see what worked and what needed to be modified...
What do you think?? 🤔

✨😉 Sometimes the vision in my head doesn't quite work out as planned but that's ok...this little bobby dazzler will be heading into my own garden where I'm sure it will create its own area of 'sparkleliciousness'!

✨😍 First one of my up-scaled spiral suncatchers off the design table...
Delicate pastel glass rondelles wrapped around the spiral and sparkly faceted sun catcher crystals dangles.
Can be hung outdoors as copper wire won't corrode but the wire will tarnish to an antique, rustic finish.
Available now...$34.00 plus $11.00 tracked postage!

🎉 Spent a lovely three hours this afternoon learning a new skill courtesy of Cecilia from Novice - ceramics and crafts. I came away with the makings of some more original items to put in my garden ie a bell and a cascading leaf wind chimes! These are now awaiting firing before glazing and...fingers crossed...new pieces for my garden decor!🎍
🫶🏻 Highly recommend Cecilia's workshops. Loads of helpful advice and oodles of positive reinforcement. Plan to head back for more casual clay tutorials in the not too distant future....

😁 What did we do before social media....🤔

Came across another technique in my feed and decided to give it a try to create this dangle...not sure whether to use it on my pot plant sticks or on a suncatcher but either way I love how it turned out...🩵

Any suggestions? 🤗 TIA!!
