There’s a ton of moss around outside since the snow, our lawn will need completely reseeding! I decided to make the best of the situation by making these cabochons, though I’m still trying to think of ways of using them!
A few people have inspired me to try some felty stuff as I’m not sure how they will work being completely see-through, as if I attach a ring finding for example you will be able to see it. I’m going to see if I can drill close to the edge without breaking them tonight.

This is me- Kerry- and I live in Leicestershire with my partner and our greyhound boy who features above in the banner. I started out making and selling resin jewellery, but now I am heavily into patchwork. More information is on my about me page!I AM A NO-REPLY BLOGGER. Sorry about that- it's a Wordpress thing. You can e-mail me though at kerry(AT)penny-dog.co.uk - I won't mind!

Very inventive Kerry. You are always thinking of new ideas and being creative. You must be busting with ideas!
Well done, Kathryn
I think they’d look pretty good with a colour foil background… like a mystic stone… then you could attach findings and wouldn’t be able to see it?
Humm, pretty things! You could attach two back to back with a band arround the centre as a lovely pendant- I have a similar thing somewhere with two bits of rock crystal and you slide a photo of a loved one between them.
Those are great! I love nature stuff. Hi Penny 🙂 I’m your owl swap partner and I am extremely tardy at introducing myself to you! I apologize about that. I popped over a while ago to ooh and aww over your wonderful jewelry hoping to get back to comment but somehow time has slipped rapidly through my fingers *grin*. I’m just putting the finishing touches on your little owl goodies and hope that you will enjoy them 🙂

Don’t worry, I was just as bad, don’t know if you got my comment on your blog? Anyway, I posted your stuff last weekend so should be with you soon!
Yup, I’m really thinking clearly tonight as I just noticed that I got your name wrong! Eeek, I think I need to head off to bed 🙂 LOL.

Oh goody 🙂 I can’t wait to see what you have created and I’ll let you know when the package arrives. I’m going to get yours sent off tomorrow 🙂

very beautiful ! I love how they look, like a little drop of water with plants in them. Won’t the water in the plants make them discolor in time though ? I’m going to try some with the snow disappears.
Hi, a few plants are actually OK and keep their colour- I have buttercups from a year ago that are still yellow! Moss isn’t a particularly moist plnt so it should hold better than the buttercups 🙂
