Beaded Pink Brooch, Japanese Rose, Gift
My beaded pink brooch is from a simple weaving technique I learnt today.
Isn't it pretty?
Since I dont wear brooches, I shall gift this Japanese rose brooch to my good friend, Melissa,
to pin it on her scarf.
Brass Bracelet
This is made of brass beads (real brass) but it is light. Completed this simple design with a little dark gold seed beads. It fits so comfortably on the wrist.
A drop of gold
This beautiful stone was from a good friend of the family, who only knew the name of the stone in chinese which I dont speak. I dont know the name of the stone but it is so beautiful and it has an amazing sheen.
I wanted the stone to be the main attraction to show off its beautiful clarity, hence the simplicity of this design.
Enchanted
Emerald green aventurine rondelles along with czech preciosa jet beads and a simply enchanting lampwork blue and black bead with green flower,which I wire wrapped as a pendant.
Jungle Fever
The smaller beads are jungle jasper beads while the focal pendant is ocean jasper. I wanted the colors to represent colors from a jungle.....earth tone, dark and lighter moss green and a little ray of light here and there. So, I combined them with greige rondelle crystals and some rich metallic dark chocolate seed beads.
A Sense of Peace
I bought this pendant many years ago that I have forgotten the name of this stone. It felt calm, peaceful, serene when I held it in my hand. I wanted simplicity for this design to reflect what I felt so I strung some natural jasper for the chain to complete it.
Rose Lampwork Bracelet, Sunset Glow
This rose lampwork bracelet was inspired by a rising sun while driving to work.
I love how the rich yellow gold and the sweet pink rose of the lampwork beads
complements each other perfectly.
It is a lovely reminder that everyday when the sun rises, it is a new day that
brings new adventures in your journey of life.
Soft, sweet with a hint of romance.....
Materials used : Gold swirl with rose lampwork beads, wheatberry czech fire polished beads,
lemon gold metal round beads, rosaline swarovski beads and gold colored spacers and round toggle claps
