Jewellery Makes

I got some time to make some jewellery this week too.
These twisty earrings have been quite popular in my shop so I thought I'd make some more! I've used swarovski butterflies in the first pair and swarovski flowers in the second pair.



I was very kindly given the beads I've used in the pendants below in a rak - I wasn't sure what to do with them so I just had a play about with some wire and this is what I came up with.....




Thank you for looking

Birthday Card and Gift

I made these for my Sister in Law for her birthday.
I used the Stampin up Whimsical Wings stamp set.

I made her a selection of earrings using smoky quartz, aqua coloured, shell, snowflake obsidian, garnet and rose quartz chip beads. She asked me a while ago to make her this style of earring in different colours, so thats what I did!


And this is the origami box I made to put them in.

Thank you for looking!

Bracelet and Earrings

I got to spend an afternoon making jewellery on Sunday and here is one of the bracelets I made along with some matching earrings.


The little lucite flowers are so pretty - I had to go to my local bead shop to buy some more after I made this because I really like them!







Both can be found in my folksy shop.

Thanks for looking!

Summer Garden Bracelet

I made this bracelet for the Make Jewellery challenge over on the Crafts Beautiful Forum, the challenge was to make something inspired from a project in issue 3 of the magazine.
I used swarovski bicones and flowers in my wirework in pretty pastel colours - it's very sparkly!

Jewellery Challenge #13

This weeks challenge was as follows:
Option 1 - Wire shaping + adding a different colour to your design
Option 2 - Wire shaping + an extra element
This is my take on it, I've not done a lot with wire before so it was nice to try something a bit different!




As always thank you for looking x x

Bracelets

These are a couple of bracelets that I have made over the last week.
For this one I crocheted some black wire and added some black and silver beads.



This is a chain maille bracelet that I made myself from jump rings and the beads are some that I got from the nec last year.
