Feature Friday – VanessaHandmade

And the Feature Friday shop goes to...

Personally, I love the unusual. The slightly off, but oh so right. The little creations that make your head stop before your body ever gets the message and you almost pull a muscle from gawking at a total stranger that just walked by. This is what would happen to me if someone walked by wearing VanessaHandmade jewelry.

She describes her creations as unconventional fiber jewelry with a tubing concept – sophisticated and unique wearable sculptures. I wholeheartedly agree.

Her jewelry is made from cotton, linen, denim, etc. that has been crocheted into tubes. She then forms them into designs that are inspired by the irregularity and asymmetry of nature.

  3. How clever! I've never seen anything like that before. Just think of all the different things you could do with the "love" in the top picture. I'd make it big and hang it up somewhere.
