Vintage Inspired Beaded Earrings, Elena



A fresh take on the vintage inspired look.
The deep red garnet colored czech fire polished beads really pairs beautifully with the brass beads.


Practice makes perfect or does it not????

These are the first few rings that I have just learnt to make.  






As you can see, I still do need lots of practice to make polished-looking rings.  

Blue Flower Pendant Necklace, Blue Ivy


This blue flower pendant necklace or "Blue Ivy" as I named it, 
was made to complement the bracelet , Ice Princess.


On a seed bead chain of almost similar color, the flower pendant has a gorgeously iridescent effect.  I can also interchange with a silver chain and have this pendant necklace shining away with my everyday outfit.




Orange and Black Seed Bead Bracelet, Maeridia



A row of diamond panes from bugle and seed beads for this simple and delightful beaded bracelet.  


You would be surprised to know that the color palette was inspired by the color of fire.... 

orange - to represent the passion of fire
white - when fire is at its hottest
gray - ashes from the aftermath of a fire
black - the aftermath of fire

It totally is a misrepresentation of a blazing fire energy....but I love how the bracelet turned out.  A bold daring palette but the result is clean lines and simple details.

This orange and black seed bead bracelet is now listed at my Etsy shop.

Blue Swarovski Flower Bracelet, Aquamarine Crystal Bracelet, Ice Princess


Recently, I found this beading pattern and decided to make this beautiful flower design into a flower bracelet.  I linked the flowers together to make this dazzling blue Swarovski bracelet, which I secured with a round silver plated toggle.  Since it was a flower bracelet, I dangled two different shape leaf charms at the end of the bracelet.  

The cool and icy aquamarine Swarovski crystals makes the crystal bracelet looks elegant and delicate, doesnt it? 

 Blue is the universal favorite color for both men and women, dont you agree?  The color blue embodies the uplifting spirit of a sunny sky or soothing ocean, perhaps explaining why so many of us choose blue for a calming, for beauty, tranquility and peace.

By the by, aquamarine is the birthstone for March.

Colorful Bracelet, Millie



A whimsical bracelet for a fun day out.

Pink Gemstone Bracelet, Rose Quartz Bracelet, Love Bracelet, Pink Me Up



Natural rose quartz, the color like the delicate pink rose (for which it is named), is paired with  small rounds of smoky quartz (or as some would called it smoky topaz) and dark chocolate Toho seed beads.  


I wanted to energize this pink gemstone bracelet and decided on these gorgeously striking emerald green Preciosa® Czech pressed glass leaves for a pick-me-up look.  A cute brass ribbon and a Friends flower charm are added  to complete this rose quartz bracelet.


You can find this love bracelet at my Etsy shop.

Swarovski Bracelet, So Sweet A Love



I asked my daughter which colors reminds her of love.  This was the colors that my daughter chose - 
yellow, pink and green - in pastel tones. 
A combination that reminds you of sweetness, softness, happiness, amore......
I chose swarovski crystals for this bracelet as swarovski has a beautiful selection of colours and luster.  I finished the bracelet with a lovely heart charm with LOVE inscribed on it.
Dont you agree  that the bracelet sparkles beautifully?

Beaded Bangle Bracelet, Cobblestones



Isnt this pretty? 
The czech fire polished beads adds texture and the metallic seed beads really shines and glistens.
