It's time for another group blog, this one called "Fall Fun - Artisan Handmade." If you want to participate, share two of your handmade beauties in fall colors.  The InLinkz closes at noon my time (MDST) on Friday, September 10.  As always, when I finish the blog and it posts (hopefully by the 12th), I ask that you leave a comment and promote all the items and the blog on at least 2 social media sites. You are also welcome to share from InLinkz as items are posted, but also please share from the blog once it's up.  Seamus and I look forward to seeing your picks!

Autumn Beauties - Artisan Handmade

Can't believe I'm already thinking of autumn when the temperatures here are still in the high 90s and triple digits.  But I hoping the cooler weather will show up sometime soon.  Thought it would be a good time to do an autumn blog to get our fall colored items out there.  If you want to be included, please leave two items in the InLinkz below.  Unless you absolutely want to, you do NOT need to promote the items from the linkup.  But please do promote the items from the blog when it's published.  Please have your items posted by Wednesday at 3:00 MDST.  Look forward to your shares.

Dragonfly Earrings, Copper Lampwork Vintage Look Handmade Jewelry Gift

The autumn colored "Dragonfly Days" earrings feature artisan handmade dragonfly on copper dangles and speckled amber brown lampwork glass beads - unique fall jewelry for women.

Filled with a calming oriental inspired vintage look, the DRAGONFLY DAYS handmade earrings are perfect to wear on those rich, glorious days of autumn. The unique earrings feature artisan dragonflies on copper charms and speckled amber brown lampwork glass beads, also artisan created. The lovely square-shaped dragonfly charms look as if they were cut from old, weathered cookie or tea tins. But they only mimic rustic vintage tins since they were individually artisan hand cut, filed and sanded from modern copper. A permanent metal transfer was applied and then the charms were sealed for long wear. Two dragonflies, one larger and one smaller, fly against a background of bamboo and a rising sun. The colors of the dangles are absolutely drenched with fall hues and have an oriental flair. Since the dangles were individually handmade, there are slight differences which add a wonderful rustic vibe. The back of the dangles are smooth, shiny copper which will gradually gain a glowing patina over time. Because the charms are made from copper, the earrings are very lightweight to wear.  To highlight the dragonflies charms, glowing lampwork glass beads were added. The individually artisan handmade lampwork beads started out as clear glass, but when still molten, a brown frit sprinkled on to add an eye catching amber glow with brown speckles.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the DRAGONFLY DAYS earrings are a perfect jewelry gift idea for the woman who adores dragonflies and loves to wear one of a kind artisan earrings. 

The unique copper dangles have a beautiful oriental vintage look to them with two dragonflies, bamboo and a rising sun design.
