It would have been a challenge to feature it without taking away from it by doing too much or by doing something too simple. The copper wire rings are perfect! You have definitely achieved rustic bohemian femininity with the bracelets. I love the colors you used. Clever use of the wine cork and the lightweight metal pieces. All in all a great soup!

However, when you paired up your bullets with the message of peace, it has an entirely different meaning. I hope you will make more political jewelry. Our acceptance of violence in our society seems to be so common place now, it would be good to have a commentary piece like your creations as a counterbalance. Thank you.

The bird focal is incredible - and you definitely showed it to its best advantage. I love the stacking bracelets too - you inspire me to dig out my own stash of sari silk and wire and see if I can come up with a bangle or twol.

As for your other 'set', I love the rustic/boho/feminine feel. It doesn't seem weird at all. I like that you kept the necklace fairly simple as the wire wrapped bird is just so precious and needs to be central. And those bangles are just too fun!
