WATCH my bling......

These are Maison Martin Margiela's lovely re-invention. By changing functionality of ordinary objects. Most designers would call this "Evolution" means to improve from original creation : p



Gold knitting.......can't remember where I googled these. Aren't they lovely?! Adding fragility to otherwise tough-looking silver. Brilliant contrasting concept!

INNOVATE, INNOVATE, INNOVATE!
INNOVATE, INNOVATE, INNOVATE!
INNOVATE, INNOVATE, INNOVATE!
INNOVATE, INNOVATE, INNOVATE!

Sigh......I've not been very productive lately. Blame it on too much procrastination and pure laziness : (

So here's the last key words for myself!
JUST DO IT!

Private Assignment 006 : LLI xclusive cuff bracelet!

Work-in-progress pix of the "one & only" LLI cuff bracelet! It still needs some final touch up and oxidization to complete this beauty : p

Ultra cool tools!

They look so slick and sparkling new : p Hopefully in years to come they will age gracefully as my jewelry work matures : )

New found love for agate slices...

I've been shopping around for materials to incorporate into Little Li jewelry line. These agate slices called out to me. Each slice is unique of it's own cos' no two pieces will look alike. Agate are so translucent and looked absolutely gorgeous when held against light. Hence I've brought home a few pieces to experiment.

Above are some playful mixing which I think would be nice to develop into unique pendents : )

Inspiration - Anndra Neen

Thanks to my faithful fan P, I was introduce to Anndra Neen. Jewelry designers Phoebe and Annette Stephens has strong artistic bloodline and influence. Their grandmother Annette Nancarrow, was a painter, sculptor and jewelry designer, and her husband was the well-known avant-garde composer Conlon Nancarrow. Based in Mexico City in the 1930s and 1940s, the couple ran in haute artistic circles, with a coterie of close friends that included Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, Jose Clemente Orozco and Anais Nin.

All jewelry were handcrafted from copper, brass and nickel silver in their Mexico City workshop, each piece is architectural and unique. “We like to think of our jewels as sculptures,” Phoebe says. “They’re like beautiful objects that happen to be wearable.”



Ooooouuuu! Such an inspiration....sometimes I do wonder if my great great grand parents were artistic too : p Even not I will have no FEAR because my Heavenly Father is the ultimate creator of all things beautiful!
