Only for You

I would like to say thank you for the Heart Pendant tutorial from

 Deborah Roberti of Around The Beading Table.  

I just added two strands of brass chain  to the heart pendant to finish the necklace.

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.

Twilight

This necklace compose of antique colored czech glass beads with beautiful metallic blue seed beads and finished with brass findings for a vintage look.

Garnet Necklace, Garnet Gemstone Necklace, Double Amethyst

This Garnet necklace was made to complement the bracelet, Amethyst Pleasure.

The gemstone necklace features natural hand-cut faceted garnet nuggets that looks almost "purple-black". These garnet nuggets are actually deep burgundy red color with minor inclusions. The nuggets are not polished as the normal stones usually are.  However, I loved that they were not perfect as those little flaws made it more interesting, more character. Like us, not perfect but it is our imperfections that make us.  

 I love how the glints of light bounced off from the pure spectacular garnets. 

I paired them with glass beads of amethyst in color and secured it with a silver plated  lobster clasp.  For a playful touch, I added another beaded garnet dangling from the end of the extender chain.

Footnote: Being a January birthstone, it is also a winter gem but with its brilliance and multitude of colors, garnet can be truly for any season.  

Natural Gemstone Necklace, Malina's Grace

I purchased these stones some years ago and have forgotten to label them and as such, I am unable to tell you what stone that I have used for this natural gemstone necklace.  I suspect these are jaspers though which type of jasper I not know. 

 However, for this project, I paired the stones with light grey seed beads and red jasper.

My only wish is to be able to get a better picture to showcase the colors on the stone.

Green Aventurine Flower Pendant Chain Necklace, Esme

Since Emerald is the color for 2013, so I thought I will jump the gun and voila!  This is my green aventurine flower pendant chain necklace.  

I wire wrapped the emerald aventurine onto a pretty brass round component into a  shape of  a flower and suspended it onto a brass plated chain with a brass plated leaf charm to complete the flower theme I have going.

I am happy the necklace looks vintage-like.  I love the "green-ness" of the aventurine and the way it harmonise so beautifully with the brass chain.  

Blue and Yellow Necklace, Summer Necklace

A blue and yellow necklace to brighten up any day! 

Here, a bold, eye-catching summer necklace that will add a splash of color and transform any outfit. 

I love the bright energy it exudes - imagine how energized it will keep you all day.

Materials used : Lapis Lazuli, Hessonite and Czech blue and topaz beads

I have it listed at my Etsy shop.

Multi Gemstone Bracelet, Yuki Onna

For fans of anime Nura : The Rise of The Yokai Clan, this is a tribute to the beautiful character, Yuki Onna. 

For Yuki, I used natural rondelles of carnelian, amethyst and peridot. 

As for Onna, it is a strand of multi colored tiny agates.

It can be worn altogether with a brass chain, and it will look good with a white t-shirt and blue jeans.

Blue and White Jewelry, A touch of blue and white

A blue and white necklace which features a round Love pendant strung onto a strand of  natural hand-cut lapis lazuli alternating with howlite rounds.  I added silver metal beads for a little glint and glimmer.

I paired the pebble shaped lapis lazuli with howlites and silver metal beads and finished with leaf charms for this lapis lazuli bracelet.

A touch of blue and white is now available at my Etsy shop.

Blue Turquoise Necklace, Mozzie

I made the necklace to complement with the Moz bracelet, which I have made earlier. 

The focal pendant is made with mother-of-shell  and and I used naturally variegated chalk turquoise with heishi size mother-of-shell with brass components to finish off the necklace. 

Seed Bead Necklace and Bracelet, Jackie Kennedy Inspired

This  seed bead necklace was inspired by one of Jackie Kennedy's jewelry collection which was auctioned off in 1990's by Sotheby.  

And I made the seed bead bracelet to match .

Turquoise Circle

A simple necklace with the focal doughnut pendant of turquoise magnesite and finished with black cord.

Dumortierite's Connection

Made to complement the Dumordeni's bracelet.

Winter Oasis

Czech Beaded Pendant Necklace, Red and Gold Bead Necklace, Ruby Gold Medallion

Beautiful Czech beads of ruby red  and shimmery gold with a white Swarovski crystal pearl center formed a round dome shape pendant.

The enchanting beaded pendant is nestled between  a beaded chain of metallic copper seed bead chain with  faceted gold and red Czech glass beads.

 I made this red and gold bead necklace short and it will rest nicely just below the clavicle.  I finished it with a copper plated lobster clasp.

I will love to wear this Czech beaded pendant necklace with a simple white blouse and blue jeans.  Its simple design and color will put the whole look of simplicity and elegance together.

Darkness & Ice

Materials used : Silver, montana blue and jet black chinese crystals

I love this combination of colors.  A smoldering look from the blend of colors of silver, grey, black and gold.  A representation of the colors of metals, hot and cold.

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.

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.

Midnight Romance

Elaborated in brass beads and jet black crystals, this necklace makes an elegant design for any outfit.  

I was watching Downtown Abbey and the beautiful ladies wore elegant pieces of  jewelry that really inspired me.  I have always loved those era of jewelry designs. Hmm.....
