A Play Day at the Jewelry Bench

July 8, 2018 By Alene Geed Leave a Comment

Play Day Gems and Metals
Most of the time when I am at the jewelry bench it is with a plan in mind. Either I am creating components for my wholesale line or pondering over what to design with new gems I have purchased.
However, once in awhile I have a day that is just plain fun. There is no plan in mind. I just pull out some random metals and gems and play! This week I had one of these days. Want to see what I created?
Here’s the components I start with today. Most are random pieces of metal that began as something else and were scrapped because I just wasn’t feeling the vibe. Everything I create needs to feel right to me? Does that make sense? It has to gel, to come from deep within me. I want to feel the energy of the design and know that the person who ultimately owns and wears this piece feels it too.

The re-creation and fun begins. Here are the results. And a little help from my Kitty Button. Her feedback is so important 😻

What People are Saying

I still have the first pair of earrings I bought from Alene and wear them frequently.  I could  almost open my own store with all the cuffs, earrings, and necklaces I own of Alene’s.  I admire and respect her talent.  It has been  wonderful to watch her jewelry progress over almost 20 years.  What a pleasure  to wear her talent.  Always compliments!!

Peg Doerfler

Alene is extremely talented her pieces are not only amazing they are well made at a reasonable price. She also will create custom pieces for you. I have several of her original and custom made pieces and love them all💞 You will not be disappointed!

Mary Jo Edel

Alene’s creations are not only beautiful, but truly unique. A rare find and appreciated for their one of a kind look and feel. Highly recommend!

Sarah Mckinney

I was introduced to Alene’s Adornments through a customer from work (grocery industry). I loved the unique pieces that Alene creates. I purchased a ring and received it gift wrapped and very quickly. The ring is one of my favorites and I receive nice comments when I wear it.

Mary Slusser

After I purchased my first piece of jewelry from Alene…I was hooked. Her craftsmanship, detail and creativity is above and beyond. I will always look to her for gift ideas, and of course, treasures for myself too. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

Linda Mangun

Alene has a gift for creating the perfect, unique piece of jewelry. Her ability to combine copper and sterling creates pieces of jewelry that are second to none. Alene then adds pops of color to create a piece that will call your name. Always eagerly await her new designs to see what new amazing piece will call my name.

Robin Meador

I have bought several sets of earrings designed and made by Alene over the past few years. I am happy with the design and quality of all. Get many compliments when I wear them. also, once ordered the merchandise arrives on time.  Would highly recommend purchasing one of her designs.  Rating “5”.

Joan Alexander

I really enjoy wearing my ‘Alene’s Adornments’ spiral earrings. They’re exactly what I want and like in an earring: authentic materials, light weight and beautiful design. I look forward to adding the next item to my collection of Alene’s creations. I highly recommend shopping here if you want beautiful jewelry, along with great service!

What a difference some texture makes!

Adding texture to my metals is a strong part of my aesthetic. I think it screams organic to me! There are so MANY ways to create texture. I have the most fun fusing metal to metal. Take the cuff shown above. I started with smooth silver already cut to the proper cuff size. Then I […]
