A collection from the past week....

Hello everyone, I hope this finds you well?  I've suffered with Migraine for the last few days so very little got done, here are some bit's I've managed to finish off, hope you like them :o)

Small but stylish this geniune gemstone Black onyx necklace with sparkly silver ball spacers and rhinestone rondelles.  At just 18" long it's finished off with a lovely heart shapes toggle fastner.

Rose Quartz and Re faceted shell pearls in this necklace with knot shaped metal beads to finish off the 'pendant'.

Silver plated hand designed earrings with purple tigers eye stones.

Rose coloured two tone glass beads and mystic coated Rose Quartz make this a lovely Rosary.



Black Sardonyx, Rose Quartz & black Obsidian nuggets make up this set.

Zebra Jasper, Citrine nuggets and Champagne Clay Rhinestone 'Disco' ball beads for this beautiful trio.  The necklace is extra long on this one but couldn't fit it in the photo.

It's a Tribal thing....

Hi Everyone,

Here's my little make for tonight...I think it's pretty tribal like and is made using genuine Jasper.  Jasper comes in many varierties and here I have used Picture Jasper and Red Jasper, a little different to my usual (whatever that is lol) and felt a little out of my comfort zone, but I'm trying to broaden my horizons - what do you think?

A little something special.....

Hello again, well the weekend is almost over - I swear I don't know where the time goes! I thought I'd share my little makes for today, these are a little something special using genuine gemstones, pearls and 925 Sterling Silver......did you know that the Pearl is one of the birthstones for the month of June?
I hope you can see the beauty in these simple earrings, the camara doesn't quite do them justice....these are 925 Sterling Silver and genuine white Pearls and beautiful Amazonite. 

This is absolutely beautiful - genuine Peachy Potatoe Pearls with a Champagne Rhinestone clay 'disco ball' in this stretch Bracelet.  I've just seen something similar in a jewellers and I was SHOCKED & STUNNED at what they where charging!!!
Well that's all for today - if you require prices or would like a bespoke piece making please don't hesitate to contact me.   Until next time........bye and have a wonderful evening xx

A little mix.......

Well here we are, another weekend of rain to look forward to, so what a good excuse to play with all your crafty goodies, I really don't know where this year has gone and can't believe we're already halfway through June! 
As most of you know who follow my little bloggings, my card making has kind of taken a back seat since discovering I have a talent for jewellery making - well I'm pleased to say the urge to make cards is slowly starting to return and I now think I'll be able to happily juggle both :o)
Here is a last nights efforts, please let me know what you think, I love to read your comments.
Dragon Earrings

Stretchy bracelet with crackled green glass & Jasper beads with a contrasting handblown glass centre piece and curled silver wire with bead.

Beautiful Browns in this lovely glass bead stretchy.

I just adore Giraffes so this was my first thought when asked to make an anniversary card for a friend. I think it works well, don't you?

Another of the Crafters Companion/Hunkydory collaboration depicting the gorgeous Humphrey range.  Humphrey's mum & dad celebrate so is perfect for this anniversary card.

Happy Crafting and positive wishes coming your way from me :o)
