Pearl Necklace

Antiquity Travelers — Sat, 16 Jul 2011 16:10:10 GMT

Another installment from my Turkish friend. Along with the coral beads she inherited from her mother, she also received this beautiful old strand of pearls. I restrung them using lapis lazuli as a highlight throughout the setting. She also decided she wanted a focal bead so I brought in several for her to choose from and she decided that the Chinese enamel was the style she wanted. They look amazing on her!

Blue Lace Agate Necklace: The Classic Style

Antiquity Travelers — Tue, 24 May 2011 00:15:38 GMT

A friend from the office asked if I'd design some jewelry to match the color of her eyes. I went hunting for chalcendony, and came back with blue lace agate. I was expecting to make a simple pair of earrings, but she liked the stone so much she asked if I'd make a simple, elegant choker-length necklace for her. I also brought in a handful of possible focal pieces, and she wanted to use the striking blue tear-drop bead.

To string this piece I used tiny heshi style freshwater pearls to space the agate. I also added a very simple, yet elegant sterling silver box clasp with a slide closure. I finished the piece with the requested blue tear-drop bead and included a matching pair of earrings with the same blue glass.

This one was fun to make, it was again, just an idea that came to me. I originally just planned to make the necklace, and then when it was done, I decided it needed earrings to go with it so I came up with these. I have made a few earrings but these I am especially proud of. I hope you like them too. Feel free to comment on any of my jewelry as this is how I learn. Thanks for looking and have a great day!

I made this necklace from jump rings I made as a chain, then added swarovski bicones and pearls on stick pins and the larger black beads are black glass beads. I tried different things with this chain, and this is what I finally came up with. The picture does not do it justice. The swarovski crystals are garnet and are a deep blood red in color. The pearls are AB and have a beautiful shine to them. I took me about 2 1/2 nights to make this, but it was fun seeing it come to life. Feel free to leave comments as it helps me to improve. Thanks, and have a great day !

Mothers Grace

RavenStarr — Sat, 08 May 2010 03:22:16 GMT

I call this one Mothers Grace because when I look at it, it reminds me of the beauty and grace of a Mother, specifically, my Mother. I did not use any pattern for this, it was just something that came to me one night as I was getting ready to bead. Alot of my designs are from idea's that just come to me. I try to be as original as possible and I have certain colors that I like to work with most. I was able to make this in one night and have since made another one. I plan on selling them in my first craft show this summer. I hope you like it. I am very proud of it.
