Harmony, Ring

I call this ring Harmony.

The random toothed design goes around the ring. It looks like city scrap. I made 2 different finishes on the ring. One side (close to us) of the toothed line is mirror finish, the other side is matte finish. Isn't it unique?!

This piece is very heavy comparing to other charm. I used almost 10 grams of silver! One of those heavy pieces I have made.

3D Triangle Favor Boxes - Fall is Here!

This origami box is cute and sturdy. The whole thing is folded with one piece of paper, except the brown triangle at the opening. I found a way to add a ribbon on it so it could be closed tightly and opened with ease. This would be a gift box for jewelry or other small items. It makes a great addition to your place settings to impress your guests. It's also a perfect size for tea bags for an afternoon tea party. :)

Personalize this Fat Cat Charm!! 2-sided!!

My sister has a fat cat. When he sits there resting, his fat butt looks like a turkey!! I was inspired by him and made this little cat. :) One side of this charm is this fat cat's butt.

Best Wishes, Chinese Characters Rubber Stamp

This handcarved Chinese rubber stamp says Best Wishes. It is a little bigger than the "Blessings" stamp. Chinese calligraphy is an unique art. There are so many fonts of Chinese calligraphy! I want to carve something in another font next time!

Blessing, Chinese Character Rubber Stamp

I carved this rubber stamp. They are Chinese characters meaning Blessings. And they read vertically. Chinese calligraphy is an art and so beautiful! There are so many fonts that I could choose to carve! I chose this font because it is a modern style and could be easily used in paper crafting.

Custom Order for Karma Dogs - 2-sided Charm with Adorable Puppy!!

This is a custom order for Karma Dogs. They wanted to have some silver charms to raise fund for the organization. One side of the charm is an adorable puppy, and the other side is Chinese characters for "Karma" and a paw. I actually carved a rubber stamp for the Chinese characters and the paw, so I could make duplicates with ease. They turned out so well!! I am glad that I could make something for an organization like Karma Dogs to raise fund!

Red Pyramid Box

This is the very first item I sold in Etsy. :) It took me a while to figure out how to make it easier for my customer to use without assembling it. But it worth it! People love it!

It is sturdy and easy to open and close. Great display too. Have a few sitting around the house or hanging on the Xmas tree in holiday season. Isn't it nice? :)

This is how it's opened. ^_^

Forever Pendant

The letters FOREVER is hard to manage in this little frame. I wish I could have made the frame bigger to have more room for the letters. But on the other hand, the letters might not be set well if they are loosely arranged. Anyway, I still like this piece. :)
