Morning Window ~ A Portrait of Recycling From The Bench. This year I am working on developing a line of jewelry using a fresh approach to designing and fabrication... an approach less controlled by design and more focused on spontaneity and less waste. This a.m. scrap metal is being transformed into flower blooms. HAVE A REFRESHED DAY! #tuesdaymorning from the #jewelrybench #jewelrydesign #inspiredbynature. #photographic #stilllife by #jewelryartist #allysonmellone.

Daring To Be Wild ~ Morning Flowers From The Bench. Petals made from scrap metal became these wild flower blossoms full of texture and sparkle. HAVE AN OUTSTANDING DAY! #tuesdaymorning from the #jewelrybench #handcrafted #uniquejewelry #inspiredbynature, #vintagestyle, and #hautejoaillerie. #madeinnyc by #jewelrydesigner #allysonmellone.

Early Prompt ~ A.M. Fabrication Using Scrap Metal. In an effort to develop as lean of a production system as possible, I am designing jewelry pieces that recycle as much of the sterling silver sheet metal and wire I use. This morning I was inspired to use the corners remaining on those circle cutouts in the picture to make petals for flower cup settings. They are for earrings. HAVE A KINDLE OF A DAY! #tuesdaymorning #jewelrydesign #inthestudio. On the #jewelrybench #inprogress #handmadejewelry #inspiredbynature. #madeinnyc by #jewelryartist #allysonmellone.

First Thing ~ Morning Review In The Studio. I've been experimenting with recycling the scrap sterling silver left from production work to create new designs. This is a renewal process I'm doing this year. So this morning was an evaluation of the pieces I've completed so far on this new path. The results are refreshingly improvisational to say the least. More to come. TO YOUR TUESDAY! #tuesdaymorning #inthestudio creating #jewelryart #inspiredbynature, #vintagestyle, and #hautejoaillerie. #madeinnyc by #jewelryartist #allysonmellone.

A.M. Buzz ~ Primavera Necklace. Made of scrap sterling silver flower cutouts and wire, this necklace represents nature's work at springtime. There is a butterfly, a bee, and a ladybug pulsing nature to bloom. HAVE A RADIANT DAY! #tuesdaymorning #jewelryart #inspiration. #joyeria #handmadejewelry #inspiredbynature and #vintagestyle. #jewelrydesign #madeinnyc by #jewelrydesigner #allysonmellone.

Revolved ~ AM in the studio. There is a yoga pose I like to practice called Revolved Triangle. It's a pose that represents my successes and failures at the bench, a process of time where I evolve...revolve...then open. I am working to incorporate an axis in my current design, Primavera Necklace. The picture is the evolution of a butterfly charm for the necklace. HAVE A REVITALIZING DAY! #tuesdaymorning #inthestudio #designing #handmadejewelry ##inspiredbynature and #hautecouture. #madeinnyc by ##jewelryartist ##allysonmellone.

Morning Call ~ Did I ever mention that I spend two hours in the early morning (6-8 AM) at my bench? I do and it's peaceful + meaningful + clarifying + motivating. This AM, designing Primavera Necklace. HAVE A FORWARD DAY! #onthebench #tuesdaymorning #making #handcraftedjewelry #inspiredbynature. #jewelrydesign #madeinnyc by #jewelryartist #allysonmellone.
