NEW Spring Flower Pendants

Spring is here! Well it was here, but now it's freezing again:( Geesh. I'm getting over it by hunkering down in the studio and dreaming up spring with some new designs.

I've been working with Millefori a lot lately, they are tiny glass flowers made to be fused into sheet glass or beads. This is what they look like before I fire them into pendants:

After cutting, layering, firing and firing again, they look like this:

I do hope that spring appears outside soon. xxoo Penny

New Shop Update

This season has been a busy one for me, phew. I won't complain at all though and happy to be up and running into spring. If only the weather would catch up. I'm using my time indoors while I wait for the thaw, I've been in the studio a ton making new pieces for spring and summer. I do hope you'll drop by the shop and take a peek:)

Design Your Own Initial Pendants are NEW in the shop this week.

Come see how you can design your own pendant here:

New Colours for Spring!

Choosing colours and sticking with them is not my strong point. Much of my design sense is driven by colour, so narrowing down the pallet and focusing on a few choice colour combinations is always painstaking for me. Yet, decisions had to be made for my Spring 2014 collection. Even though I have dozens (most likely over 100- really) of glass colours to choose from, by focusing on a dozen or so choices I can streamline the design process and provide a well thought out colour pallet for the season that compliment my jewellery design in the best possible way. So, here are my main choices so far (I think, really):

Look out for my new Spring collection coming to the shop this week. Yes, I still hope for spring, even though it -20 and snow covers most of my windows!

Remember These?

Hello! Just thought I would FINALLY update my progress on my new hand painted pendants that I posted about in this post waaaaay back in February! I have been so busy getting things organized and finnished on the home front, that I just couldn't get my act together to list them in my shop.

Well, without further ado, here they are:

Ta da!

Just for fun, I've kept the sale going for facebook and twitter friends:) Simply enter SPRING2013 for 20% off all week.

NEW in Penny Glass Girl!

Today, the weather was dark and dreary so I decided to lighten things up a bit and list my newest earrings in a rainbow of colours!

I love adding just a pop of colour to my winter wardrobe, and the best part is that these earrings coordinate perfectly with the pendants in my shop. So, match - or mix and match- away:)

You can find these earrings here and choose your favourite colour to brighten up your day. xxxooo Penny

Shop Update: Sneak Peek New Customizable Bracelets

Sometimes, inspiration for a new piece strikes me and I can't get produce it fast enough. At other times, I need to think about an idea and ruminate on it for quite some time. It's the latter senerio that went into creating my newest bracelet idea.

The inspiration for these bracelets came originally from the countless paint chips and colour wheels that I have been starring at for the last few weeks contemplating my newest home project - a total re-do o our third floor (more on that later). I wanted to create a bracelet that could be completely customized and provide a fun way to play with differnt colour combinations. In addition, all the colours can be ound in my pendants, making them a great accent when worn together.

Here's a sneak peek of the results:

I'll be listing the bracelets above in the shop tomorrow along with a custom listing and all my current glass options so that you can customize a piece in any colour combo you desire. In the meantime, if you would like to purchase one right away, send me an email at pennyglassgirl@yahoo.com and I'll set up a listing just for you.

Cheers, and happy weekend!
