Happy as a fish ...

The French are "happy as a fish in water" and they are also "April fish" on the first of April. This year, April 1 is on Saturday, so my group of artists and craftspersons is doing a special long weekend exhibit "Happy as an April fish" ("Heureux comme un poisson d'avril"), and the theme is fish and the sea. A new experience for me to create a jewelry collection with this kind of theme - very interesting to work with techniques I know in a new way!

glass fish with flat crystals

earrings in a variety of styles

four different bracelets - the one in the front has charms on a chain that
I dreamed up with aluminum rings and two-holed hematite beads




the two fish are hand-made and came from a gallery in Prague

the chain is a Mobius knot pattern

a more casual look for this necklace

not all fish are blue and silver

a colorful chain that picks up the fish colors

perhaps my favorite necklace in this collection

definitely casual
