These angel earrings were made especially for my mother-in-law. She loves angels and Amethyst is her birthstone. The halos are just too darn cute as they can move all around - and even hang off-kilter a bit. $13 per pair.

My good friend called me up one afternoon and said that she wanted to have necklaces made for her and her sisters for Christmas. This is what we came up with...the crystals stand for their birth months. Each necklace is sterling silver with Swarovksi crystals. The crystal dangling from the heart is the sister's birth month who will be wearing that particular necklace. I loved the way they turned out and wanted to share....this can also be done with good friends, mother/daughters, etc. The charms are completely customizable and can be engraved with almost anything. $32 per necklace.

Picture Canvas

I am so excited about my newest craft - no, it's not jewelry, but it sure was fun to make - and I think it looks really nice. These are some of my favorite pictures of the boys - and a good friend of mine had the idea to put them on canvases and modge podge over them. What a fun way to keepsake photos!

Recently I was asked to create a little something for a gift bag for tennis tournament participants. The tennis tournament benefits the Leukemia and Lymphoma Foundation, so I used orange beads and a tennis ball to create this keychain/zipper pull for the ladies' tennis bags....I'm so excited about the way they turned and hope that the receipients love them! I have looked around and can get my hands on pretty much any sport ball - and can change the colors to match your team colors. Selling for $7.50 each. Feedback?

Have a great weekend!

Initial Necklaces

So...I know I just posted a picture similar to this, but I was faced with a new challenge when my sister wanted necklaces with her childrens names on them. The names of her children are Alexander and Katarina - obviously too long to put on these small charms. We opted for initials instead - the round one is for Alexander and the "prettier," fancier one is for Katarina. I LOVE the way they turned out and wanted to put the pics out for everyone to see......let me know what you think! Have a WONDERFUL weekend.

Name Charm Necklaces

Hi all. I know I haven't posted anything new in a while - who knew summer was going to be this busy - FUN, but busy. This is my newest "creation." Sterling silver necklaces with the name of your child (or your favorite pet, your jersey number, etc) on them. The Swarovski crystals represent their birth month and are replicated at the clasp of the necklace. Similar necklaces are selling on the internet and via catalogs for $165. My set of 2 necklaces sells for $60. All components are sterling silver and real Swarovski Crystals. Necklace lengths are made to your specifications. Let me know what you think - feedback is always appreciated!

Mother's Day Gifts

Mother's Day is May 10th this year - and if you haven't noticed how fast 2009 is moving - May will be here before you know it! This year, my friend and I have decided to combine our jewelry-making efforts to bring you three different jewelry options as gifts for your mother, aunt, sister, grandmother, or just someone who means a lot to you – even to reward yourself for a job well done! Our first piece is a bookmark. As many of you
already know from previous orders, these bookmarks can be customized to fit the recipient’s likes. Last year for Christmas, I sold over 400 bookmarks, so if you’re interested let me know soon to get to the front of the line! Bookmarks sell for $10/each. The next gift idea is a pair of earrings. The first is a pair of freshwater and Swarovski pearl earrings, the second and third are Mothers’ Earrings. The Swarovski crystals that hang from the silver component are designed to represent the children’s birth months, or can be chosen based on desired color. All of these earrings are made with sterling silver components and sell for $15/pair. The final offering is a necklace. This necklace is made with fresh water pearls (either the 8 mm or the 4 mm) and either an aqua, blue stone and silk string or a green carnelian stone and silk string. Gold-filled chain is used as the connector for this necklace. Gold-filled is a much affordable option than 14kt gold and maintains its life for up to 30 years before wearing. This piece is sure to be special to those who appreciate beauty and originality in their jewelry. (Note: This necklace can also be made using a fuchsia or “petal” pink stone.) The 4mm necklace sells for $35 and the 8 mm sells for $40.

Jewelry Show

Thanks to those of you who attending my first ever jewelry show. I enjoyed talking to everyone and welcomed all the feedback I was given on my "creations." Keep checking back to the site as I will be adding new photos this week. Have a great (rainy if you are in GA) weekend!

Nugget Cuff

This bracelet is made with a one-of-a-kind citrine nugget. The tubes and the wire making up the bracelet are all sterling silver. The clasp is a magnetic clasp (easy to put on and take off, but with a very strong hold) which includes a blue aquamarine. Bracelet sells for $35.

Opalite Days

Opalite is such a beautiful stone. These opalite are mostly clear with a hint of soft blue, yet they really take on the color of the clothes you are wearing. I matched the stones with silver to show off their beauty. Set sells for $35.

T&S Teardrops

This set is made with turquoise beads and turquoise-colored seed beads. The necklace has 2 strands with one clasp. Earrings are made with sterling silver earwires. Set sells for $40

Hi all! Thanks for visiting my jewelry blog. The pictures are posted are just a handful of the items I have made in the past. If you like something, please comment on it (or heck, just order it!). Also, since I am now selling on the internet and via other avenues, I would love feedback on my prices, designs, etc.

Sterling Silver Earrings

These 3 pairs of earring are made of sterling silver components. The pearl earrings include a freshwater pearl as the main one and Swarovski Crystal Pearls as the small ones.
