More Ear cuffs

Lots more ear cuffs and wire wrapped jewellery have been added to Night Cove.

All of these will be discounted at the Wonthaggi Craft market on the 10th of March.  Or can be bought at normal prices at Night Cove.

 

 

Wonthaggi Craft Market

I've finally decided to do a Craft Market!

This first one will be in Wonthaggi, I may do the Traralgon one some times as well.

Most things, if not all, will be on sale, for the market only.

I've made a heap of barbed wire jewellery,

 

lots of crochet bookmarks,

and quite a lot of wire ear cuffs.

 All these things still need proper photos taken, and to be listed onto my website, but they're already made and available to buy.  There's plenty more that I haven't photographed yet.

The barbed wire jewellery and ear cuffs will be added to Night Cove

The crochet bookmarks will be added to Craft Cove

The first market will be at Apex Park in Murray Street Wonthaggi.
And is on the10th March.

Baby Booties

Here are some of the newest baby booties that are available to buy from Craft Cove.

 I love how these high top booties came out.  They really look like high top shoes.

These ugg boots are so cute.

Mary Janes

Crochet Couch

No, I didn't crochet a whole couch cover for a normal sized couch!

No, it's not a dolls house couch!

It's a tissue box cover!

I love how it turned out.  I originally made it for a Christmas present for my Mum, but it's so cute I'm giving it to her already, and I'll make another one for myself eventually, and another one for my Mother-in-law.

Of course they're also available upon request for whoever wants one.  You can even choose your color to match your own couch or whatever you like.

I was thinking this would also look great in any office reception area or waiting room.

BABY CLOTHES

I'm starting a new line of crocheted baby clothes.

This was the first one by custom order.

Craft Cove

Custom orders for this dress are available upon request.  Order here.

Others are coming soon.

New Crochet Earrings

I've added a variety of crochet earrings to my web site Craft Cove

Some are made with crochet thread, some are made with three strands of sewing thread.

I've crocheted some into hoops as well.

Here are some of them.

How to wear an ear cuff

How to wear an ear cuff

Start at the top of the ear where the ear is thinner. Slide the cuff downwards over the cartilage, while turning it towards the front.

The cuff will sit from the outside of the ear, and over both sections of cartilage on the middle part of your ear.

Squeeze the ring section slightly, if necessary to get a snug fit.  This is only necessary before the first use.

The first lot of ear cuffs have been listed on my site. 

check them out here.  Night Cove for goth and chainmail

And remember most of them don't require piercings!

black and copper ear cuff

I've created a tutorial on blocking and stiffening crochet.

Very useful for all crocheters and knitters.

Blocking

Lots of things

I've been doing all sorts of things lately.  I've been finding crochet the most soothing, and I can do that at night.

I find beading difficult to do at night, because I get lots of glare and shadows from lamps, and there's too many bits and pieces to keep track of.

I've made a few different crochet earrings, but I'm still in the process of stiffening them.  Then I'll take photos.

I'll be doing a tutorial on a blocking board soon, and maybe some information on blocking and stiffening crochet.

I've also made some wire ear cuffs and slave earrings, I just haven't photographed them yet.


Crochet baby clothes will be coming soon too.

I have so many ideas, but never enough time.

New Australian website for Gothic jewellery

I've created another new site called NIGHT COVE. This one is for chainmail, Goth jewellery and steampunk. And it's all made in Australia.

https://sites.google.com/site/nightcove/

There will be a wide range of lockable jewellery, slave bracelets (handflowers), barefoot sandals (slave anklets), and steampunk.

Gothic lockable anklet

Some items are made of chainmail, others from  wire work, and yet others beaded.

There is also a range of vintage jewellery, and belly dancing wear.

This is the first handflower design.

I have many many more ideas for things, there are so many handflower and footflower designs in my head, and sketched out. And so many more ideas for ear cuffs, wraps and vines.

Here are some of the other chainmail designs.

Which image type?

I wonder if any of you readers could help?

 I decided I need to re-photo some of my older images.  I plan on having a few different images for each item, but I can't decide if I should combine them all into one image, or keep them separate.

What do you think?

these three separately?

          or this one on it's own?
