New Tree Design

For some time I've been wanting to do a Cancer Awareness tree. My first little tree was done on an artist trading card, so you really can't count it, but this week was the week to get it completed. I have one more that isn't photographed yet that is for Breast Cancer Awareness and as you can guess it is mostly pink.

This one has pink and lavender ribbon with leaf, heart and hope charms. I have this one mounted on a dish but it would be easy to mount it on a rock or in a cup also. This tree is based upon the 2 Leaf Gem Tree style in my book with a couple of variations. There are some crystal sprays and some branches with just loops. The complete instructions will be written up soon and posted as a tutorial for sale along with the kit in my ArtFire Studio.  Here are a few more pictures of other trees in this same style.

Fun trees to make.

Tree of Life Artist - Kee's Juicy Gems

I found another gem tree artist on 1000 Markets. Her name is Alicia and she makes wonderful tree pendants. Yes, trees can be made into pendants and do not have to sit on a table. Very unique pendants if I say so myself. These would be perfect made with birthstone gems as a gift and I'm sure she will make any special order that you wish if you don't find the right color choice in her shop. Here is a little bit more about Alicia.

My name is Alicia, I am a marine wife and mom to a awsome little girl and a little boy. I have been making jewelry since I was six. It started as friendship braclets then evolved to hemp and wire wrapping. I have never stopped evolving and growing in my talents. I have never taken a class on jewelry I just create what is in my head or what I see around me. My favorite at the moment is the crystal hearts I have in my store. The are so beautiful the pictures could never capture how amazing they are. Every time I wear one I get tons of compliments. I just opened another shop on 1000 Markets with my line of hair bows, keesbabylove.1000markets.com. I can not wait to evolve more create beautiful jewelry for people. I love custom orders so dont be shy. If you like what you see but see it in a different color no problem I will find you that color and make your piece. Thanks for stopping by Alicia
