Hand Stamped Metal Cuff Rings

Hi All!

The shop is up and running but I've only posted my macrame bracelets. I have not posted my hand-stamped jewelry just yet because I am awaiting a shipment of silk ribbons for my ribbon wrap stamped bracelets.

I also ordered a new font set for hand stamping jewelry so I'm excited for that to come in!

Since I've been experimenting with hand stamping metal jewelry and have been successful in selling bracelets and keepsake necklaces, I decided to try out rings. I had been hesitant about them because I wasn't sure I loved the idea of a cuff ring (open back, not soldered). But I've learned to try things out before judging them from a photo so I ordered some ring blanks and stamped away.

I ordered 3 width sizes for the medium sized ring. The medium covers fingers measuring 6-8 in size. Because the backing of the ring is open like this:

...it is easier to adjust the ring! On good days when I'm not so bloated, I can close the gap of the ring...and on days like TODAY when I've indulged all week in rich birthday dinner celebrations, well...that's another story! Ha! :-)

Thank goodness for the adjustment feature.

Each ring width was nice to work with but I think my favorite is the thickest width, 1/2 inch, because I could add longer phrases to the ring. All of them are great and I wear them out, one at a time, or two at a time, especially when my wedding ring can't fit. Bad, I know.

I am ordering more ring sizes for Small and Large fingers and then I will offer them on my Etsy shop, Fanciful Wish I won't carry many in stock since I have other stamped jewelry to sell as well so check them out once I post them. Yes, I do custom orders in case you want something specific on the ring. Just let me know!

Thanks for reading and enjoy your weekend!
Xoxo,
Yolanda

The End of August

Wow - what a month. I knew it would be busy because my in-laws were visiting us for 2 weeks and after they left it was my son's 5th birthday. And in all of that, my 7 month old baby girl started crawling, eating baby food and now wants to stand! So basically I've been busy and one tired mommy! But having people visit from out of state means I got to relax...A LITTLE! Here's a picture from Ko'olina Lagoons A day at Dole Plantation The beautiful blue sky in Hawaii I'm lucky to live here, though I do admit sometimes I wish we'd have an actually Fall season. I don't need winter 😂 I just want a reprieve from the sun and heat sometimes, and I love autumn and cooler weather. Anyway the visit was fun and hectic and I think we are recovering from being on the go. But the end of August also reminds me that soon the holiday rush will be here and my baby girl's 1st birthday, so the chaos it seems, never ends. I added some new items i...

Hand Stamped Metal Jewelry

One of FancifulWish 's best sellers (when I have the time to make them) are my hand stamped metal jewelry. I like the act of pounding a metal stamp into a piece of metal. Maybe it's stress relief? I bought my first kit from Beaducation . And yes I started off with a kit because I didn't know what went into metal stamped jewelry. I would have taken a class from my local jewelry store but I was at home with a newborn with no babysitter, so learning on my own was the way to go. Now I will warn you - making hand stamped jewelry is NOT cheap. You can get away with using a hammer you have at home to pound your letters into your metal but the letters themselves are pricey. I've only managed to collect 5 different types of letters, 3 of them the same font in different size with numbers included. The other a different font in lower and upper case sizes. And then there are punctation stamps and design stamps....not cheap. Alphabet s...

Echoes of the Universe / Namaste / Tree of Life

Ever have a feeling like the universe is listening to you and things happen that reflect that? And you stop for a moment and say hmmm...I was just thinking that or you had just been talking about it or reading about it... First it was the dream catcher. I saw the bracelets online and wanted to make one but didn't have time then a few weeks ago I saw that my nephew had a dream catcher hanging in his room, which used to be MY room growing up and I had my own dream catcher. SO I finally made the dream catcher charms.... Then I was talking to my husband this weekend about making tree of life pendants because I saw them on Pinterest. BUT I used to make wire trees, years ago, they looked like this...I remember teaching my co-workers to make them for a fundraising basket we were putting together. I loved these trees. But my husband is Jewish and said it was perfect I'd make tree of life pendants because there is a Jewish holiday Tu b'shevat (it was in...
