Very pretty! What did you use for the leaf pattern? I also like the bend.

Honestly, Jenny, I'm not sure where the curve came from! One of those happy accidents, I guess :) Thank you!

Great texture! And I like how you curved your piece too. Did you shape it before or after firing?

Simple and elegant example of nature inspired jewelry. Just my style! I would love to pair this with wire wrapped flower and leaf beads to create a dangly necklace pendant and possibly a pair of earrings. I'm knee deep in another one of my crafty loves right now (crocheting), but when I shift gears, I definitely will be creating my own version of this!
