Christmas Bling!

Im starting to get into the Christmas spirit! I say Christmas, because that is what I mean. I do not say Happy Holidays. I say Merry Christmas until its over and then I say Happy New Year. Im not PC, I know. But why lie? I celebrate Christmas and New Years, not Kwanza or Haunakah. So, with that said, here is the start of my new Christmas collection.

The necklace is rosary-style featuring red and AB Swarovski crystals on sterling silver chain. The earrings are hand-formed spirals with wire-wrapped red crystal drops. These would be stunning worn to any Christmas party!

Bead Market

I went to my first Bead Market today. It was fairly small, which make it nice. But it was packed! The tables were so close together that two people could not fit down the aisle at the same time. That was the only downfall because I sure found some beautiful beads!

I couldnt help myself when I saw these delicate lucite flower and leaf beads. I cmae right home and got to work! This beautiful necklace features a meangerie of delicate pastel flowers and swarovski crystal beads.

Summers at the Beach

Did you ever spend the summer at the beach? When I saw these beads, that's exactly what they remind me of. The white beads are for the sand, the peach beads are for the sun, the green beads are for nature, and the blue beads are for the ocean waters. They are so delicate and pretty!

Bleeding Hearts Bracelet

Conversation pieces can be so much fun to wear! Especially when its my new Bleeding Heart Bracelet. It's sure to attract a few glances with its puffy, pale pink hearts dangling around your wrist.

A Gift Set

I just made this pretty blue set for a gift. I love using all sorts of different shapes and sizes of beads in all different shades of the a color, like I have below. This blue set is symetrical, which is something I dont usually do. It turned out so well! *I hope she likes them.*

If you're interested in buying a similar set, please email me.
