Shell Peach & Cream

Good morning

There have been such lovely sunny days over the last week or so that I have started to think about holidays and summer.  So I started working with some shell jewellery, which is both light and durable, and I came up this pretty peach and cream shell necklace and ear rings. 

A few false starts but in the end I am very happy with the finished items, making the flower was both challenging and fun to figure out.  I hope that you like it too so feel free to let me know you thoughts.

Friends Cards

Happy spring morning

I have been going through my calendar to check for upcoming birthdays and decided to make all my friends and family cards for the next month. 

It is so much fun making individual cards especially for the recipient, knowing they will love them and appreciate the time and thought that goes into them.

Sapphire & Diamonds

Morning everyone

This week I have been working with a sapphire and diamond tennis bracelet which was given to me by a friend.  The bracelet was quite old, had broken links and was losing its shine and appeal.

I wanted to breathe some new life into the beautiful gems and setting, so I have taken it apart and created both ear rings and a necklace. I added a very pretty colour change fluorite which I think matched the sapphire’s colour very well.

I am so happy with the results and glad that I was able to give this bracelet a new lease of life.

Heamatite & Pearls

Good morning

 This week I made a necklace that has been in the back of my mind for some time.  It is quite simple and is only possible because of the shape of the gem stones.  I was lucky enough to come across some chevron shaped hematite which I have used in a choker with a beautiful freshwater pearl shaped in a cross.

I love the results and, with the ear rings, it just looks stunning.

Let me know what you think of my makes.
