New at the apple and Kim’s Crafty Apple!

It seems that my Candy Drop rings have been fairly popular so I have decided to make more! Here are a few of my latest: Candy Drop Flower Ring: This fabulous ring screams “Let’s have some FUN!”  I used a Hill Tribes fine silver, 39mm flower with 3-loops, 5-6mm band, adjustable ring base.  The adjustable part of this ring is a wrap around (as you should be able to see in the pictures) so it eliminates that ‘pinching’ you sometimes get with adjustable rings.  I then embellished this fabulous floral base with bright and colorful epoxy candy drop beads.  Without a doubt this ring will draw some attention!  This ring actually already sold to someone from France!  Yeah! Turquoise Copper Cuff I have also recently listed a fabulous new cuff.  I started with a gorgeous copper cuff base and then I randomly wove copper wire threaded with African Turquoise and copper spacers inside of the cuff.  I am extremely happy with the end result.  This bracelet is truly gorgeous and will catch people’s eyes for sure! The cuff measures approximately 7” from end to end but is very malleable and should fit most wrist sizes.  The bracelet measures 1 5/8” wide.    Dyed Silk Twisted Black Onyx Necklace This new necklace at the Apple is quite simple…but that’s what makes it so wonderful.  I took a piece of variegated dyed-silk ribbon and attached a stunning twisted black onyx focal bead.  A knot and loop combination was made to keep the necklace on…all very organic looking.  Also, this simple attachment method makes adjusting the length really easy…just move the knot! Length as is:  16” and can be adjusted to be longer (add a note to seller)   Scrappy Baby Quilt My mother-in-law, Diane, put this fun quilt together.  She used a  bunch of fun, colorful scraps to create this fabulous quilt that a child is sure to love!  She quilted it herself with a swirly star pattern and used a fun barnyard printed pattern for the back of  the quilt.  Approximate Size:  37” x 29.5”   Round Robin Quilt This fabulous quilt was created by my mother-in-law.  It was supposed to be a Round Robin Quilt from a class she took but for some reason she never finished it until recently.  The bright colors she chose look absolutely fabulous against the black background fabric.  This would be a great quilt for a baby, young child or even a lap!  When Diane finished putting the top together she sent it to her sister, Barb (quiltsbybarb.etsy.com) to quilt with her long arm machine.  The quilting she did works just perfectly for this quilt! Approximate Size:  47.5” x 59.5”   I hope you all enjoyed some of the new items in my shop!
