Whskr Shops on Wednesday

I just have to share the work of one of my good Twitter friends who has a shop on Etsy @HyperSpaceHippo her wire wrapped rings are amazing and her new lampwork beaded jewellery is quality one of a kind stuff; this ring features a faceted blue glass bead, and was wire wrapped by hand with shiny silver-plated copper wire.  Oh and if you think wire wrapping is easy - think again - work of this quality takes skill!

Today's Whskr featured item is a spectacular doll with a unique twist.  Paying tribute to times gone by and the handwork done by our grandmothers as they say by the fire listening to the radio or a phonograph, this doll is dressed in an hand embroidered doily embellished with heat set crystals and sequins.
