New Year and a new challenge Maria Apostolou 8 years ago If you’ve followed the Ring-a-Day Challenge back in 2010, perhaps you’ll be as excited as I am for the Ring-a-Day 2.0 that has just started! This time the challenge will mostly run through Instagram. I’ll be posting some of the rings on my blog every now and then but you will be able to follow through my Instagram and search the entries of all participating jewelers using the hashtags #ringaday2017 and #rad2017. I consider it a good sign when the year starts with feathers, macrame knots and sea urchins! These are some of my favourite things to make! A new jacaranda leaf bracelet with pearls and ruby red agate, plus a custom made raw apatite ring. Custom “Purna” pendant in fine silver and new cords and gemstones to play with! My favourite of all is this whimsical contrabass single earring, which is a gift for a musician who plays this wonderful instrument! Thanks for visiting!
