I took a long leave of absence from FPN (and other online pursuits) in order to open an Internet shop and show the world my handmade jewlery. Now that it's up and running, I wanted to come back and offer FPNers a chance to oooh and aaah over some of my pieces before they're listed in the shop.

So I'm pleased to unveil...

blue flame chainmaille earrings

These earrings are handmade with anodized aluminum jump rings that have been dyed in two beautiful shades of blue. They hang 2 1/4" from the end of the brass ear wires, and are lightweight and comfortable. The chainmaille is woven with a technique known as European, and it's exactly what medieval knights wore - only theirs was much heavier, didn't match their favorite blue jeans so well, and didn't have people smoldering with desire at them as they sat in the coffee house reading the morning headlines.

$15 for the pair, and $2 for shipping CONUS (contact me for shipping costs overseas). Paypal only, please.

And don't forget to stop by my blog, the teahouse, and liven things up a bit with your comments and votes on the various polls I post there.

Thank you for looking!
