I'm so inspired by these gorgeous handmade jewelry pieces. The necklace is crocheted in wire by Canadian designer Arielle de Pinto, and the ring is from Italian designer Brunella Caccaviello's line Flos ad Florem.

In addition to being completely beautiful, these pieces are attractive for their I-could-make-that-this-weekend appeal. I always fall in love with complicated projects that take forever to complete, so I'm drawn to the idea of designing a quickie piece like this. Hmmm, I do have some crochet-able wire hanging out in the craft room...
