60 Carats of Emeralds and Sterling silver.......

Sneak Peek.

But first let me feature the lady I am doing this give away for.

Liss Silverwing is the name she goes by in Facebook. Felicia Ciobota is her full name and she is trying to raise funds for her Dad to have a procedure for his heart.

You can find Liss here , here and here. Liss also runs auctions on Outbid and can be found here. Check the times out and see if you can get a great piece at a great price.

Liss is a creative artist designing handcrafted pendants of selective and custom made artwork at affordable prices.

In her words....
"I draw my inspiration from my desire to provide a decent living for 4 year old. Being a single parent makes me realize I need to put every ounce of effort into my designs for him.
I've been making pendants and painting them for several years, and I find painting and crafting to be my escape and a very beautiful work.
I have all kinds of ideas that I want to explore for my art and start making more than pendants  but I need a lot of encouragement and support for that.
I recently took up digital painting as well so if you want a totally original painting done after a photograph of loved ones or just some other picture that you love, you can let me know and we can work it out."
If people want to buy, go here  , and mention the code FusionMuse to obtain 10% off the purchase.

So that is Liss. My give away is so that you might want to support her. 

How to enter?

1. One entry is to go and like her FB page.

2. Another 5 entries can be added if you make a purchase.

3. Another entry can be obtained if you come back here and tell me which of her pieces or artworks you like best.

Thats it. 

Ok now for the Emeralds. 

60 carats of Emeralds with Picture jasper and Sterling silver.24" Long graduated necklace and Earrings set. All securely Wrapped and the chain is handmade by me as well.

I know this was supposed to go a few days ago but I have been held up by a combination of things that were totally out of my control. Hence the late post but it is here now, better late than never.

We had 5 lovely ladies add our Free beads button to their blog side bars and I have sent parcels. How long until they arrive? How long is a piece of string ? LOL  For what ever reason the post takes its own sweet time no matter how quickly I get the bundles to the post office. So expect 10-21 days.
So who won?

Drum roll Please

Normally I would be featuring someone on a Friday and we will start with guests as of next week. I have had such a fun time kick starting the blog again and getting the free beads competition running and sorting out swaps that the week ran away. I have a jump start on next week though and have it almost finished.
So today let me tell you about me.
I am originally from Australia and grew up in Sydney.I now live in Bangkok and love it here.

Loads of new stuff coming in the second half of this year and many projects that I have been working on for a few months are finally starting to unfold.


I have a hobby and make lovely jewelry to suit many different tastes and styles. I love to use great gems and silver but am now branching out into Brass and Copper as metals of choice. This is because I can get them easily and my new pieces....well I am wanting to melt metal and hammer more.Love my tools.

We have a cat we rescued and 4 bunnies, 2 of whom were blogged about in an earlier post and we all live happily in a small townhouse in the suburbs of Bangkok.

We will be running competitions, giveaways and other fun things as time goes by. What a busy life we lead.

On that note it is time to go and start my next task.
Love and Hugs
Tanya

Its your lucky day.
Leave me a comment  and email me and I will put you in the draw for these Fine Silver and copper earrings. They were the first pieces I made using my little torch and I still have them. Time to send them to a new home. They are approx 1 1/2 inches from the curve of the Sterling Silver hook to the bottom.Not too heavy, not too light, Just right.
Just leave me a comment and then email me at fusionmuseoffice@gmail.com and I will put you in the draw and let you know next Winning Wednesday who won.
Thanks for playing
Tanya

Thoughtful Thursday

I have been sorting myself for the last few weeks. Oh my Gosh what a mess!!!! LOL
My life has been kind of on hold because my headache returned and so I was trying to work out how to reduce the headache. I even went off my pain meds to see if that would help and whilst it did for a few days I am now using them again to get through the day.
So a Thoughful Thursday. There are so many many ideas running in my head and it is time to implement them. As a result one of the things I want to do is the join the Bead Soup Blog Hop. Once a year it is hosted by the lovely Lori and here is the link. Sign up is this weekend. You can join too as long as you fit the rules.
Ok off to do some more.
See you tomorrow.
