LicaLee On ArtFire

I guess I forgot to resize the photos - so you get big photos on this one!
So, really I'm going to promote someone that does something that does similar work to what I do? Oh come on now!!

Yeah, I am!

LicaLee out of Milwaukee, Wi does some pretty cool stuff. And has very reasonable prices. LicaLee does quite a bit with ceramic pieces from broken plates, and they make some really neat pendants I think. And leaves - some really neat leaves - in different colors and sizes - you can even custom order one!

I really like this fiery orange and red piece - I admit, red is not a color I work with very much - and don't wear much of - but I still like this.
I really like this ceramic piece - of course - it's a flower!


and the leaves - wonder if they would make people think of being more green - in recycling and the like! She has sold some of the leaves I've seen in her shop, they were pretty cool too! And it looks like she does a nice neat soldering job!
So, if you are looking for something a little bit different, but not too crazy, this is a great shop with some pretty cool items, go check it out!

SPRING CELEBRATION DRAWING

I decided to do another drawing for one of my pendants. I de-activated one that I had listed, but it seemed to fit the theme for the drawing better than anything else.
I think this pendant celebrates spring with it's little daisy painted on yellow stained glass. It has 3 yellow crystals dangling below just for added fun. It's rescued stain glass that was headed for the dump - I smoothed the edges a bit, but I don't have a proper grinder, so the edges are just a tad bumpy in a couple of spots, it's wrapped like stained glass with copper foil and soldered with lead free solder. It's then sanded relatively smooth, and polished to a nice shine. From the top of the loop on the pendant to the bottom crystal, it measures 3.25" and just shy of 1/2" wide. You can just spritz it with a little vinegar water to clean it, or wash it in soapy water, rinse and dry with a lint free cloth.
Comes with a 16" (or any length you want 14" - 18") black silk cord and will be tucked into a drawstring organza pouch. Personally, I really like these on the shorter 14" cords. But, hey we all have different preferences, so whatever length you'd like is cool!





So, to sign up for this drawing - go to my shop on ArtFire and have a look around, then come back here and leave a comment about one item in my shop - good, bad, pricing, fav, colored background or off white - sort of feedback kind of thing!
Drawing will be Midnight (my time) Sunday (April 12th)night!
Thanks for your interest and good luck on the drawing!

NO JOKE - IT'S A GIVE AWAY


Hey I don't seem to be able to sell it - so maybe I can give it away! Well one pendant anyway!
Never mind that I don't have it listed!

Drawing midnight tonight - my time - so no delaying on entering the contest!

Here's what it's for

1 very unique iridescent green glass disc with handpainted daisy, and then wrapped in copper foil and soldered with leadfree solder. Then it's all hung on a 16" black silk cord with a sweet little heart shaped clasp.

This is one of the first pendants I soldered - I think if you are reasonably nice to it - it'll probably hold up for quite a while - the paint will for sure! and hey when you aren't wearing it, it makes an awesome mini- suncatcher!

So, leave me a comment - this post only for contest - feel free to leave comments on other posts if you wish - but only the names on this one go into drawing!
However, I would like to ask that the winner come back here and leave a comment about the pendant when they receive it! good or bad.

Come visit me on artfire: http://lisianblue.artfire.com
Good luck and Happy April Fools day - and may you not be fooled tooo badly!
