Fun Necklaces

I don't make a lot of necklaces. I don't know why I don't. Last weekend I bought some new beads and made a really cute bracelet. As I was looking at the design I thought, this would make a really cute necklace. So I extended the design and even added a 2 inch extension. So it can be a choker or necklace length. I really liked how it turned out so I plan to design more necklaces as well as a few more lanyards. I've put the necklace up for auction and have received 6 bids so far. So people are definitely liking it, hopefully the price will go up before the listing ends. Here is a link to the auction

Beaded Pacifier Clips

These have been selling like hotcakes! No doubt because of the old cloth ones that get all ratty and stained, and never really seem to match your childs outfits. Here are two I made today per request, I think they turned out adorable!

Briolette Beads

I ordered some of these recently, briolette beads resemble small pendant beads made from gemstones. The give a unique look to jewelry and I've really had fun using them. Here are a few examples, the first is made with Pink Opal Briolette, Hermatite, glass pearls and silver beads. The second is made from Sodalite Briolette, Silver daisies, and 7mm tiger eye blue round beads. The third bracelet has tiger eye briolette, camel swirled flat beads, hermatite and silve bali beads. Let me know what you think! :)

Custom created Cell phone Case

This was created at the request of a customer.

The case is ice blue genuine leather with a magnetic closure to keep your cell phone secure. The beaded strand includes a purple flower bead, Blue and purple cat's eye cube beads, Clear swarovski faceted crystal, Purple faceted beads, Blue swirled beads, Glass pearls, and mother of pearl beads. The beads are alternated with silver findings and complete this look.

What a busy weekend!

Ok this jewelry making business is really starting to rev up! I feel like I've been making jewelry all weekend! But no complaints here! Today was fun as I got to make my first personalized Dog necklaces for Cindy and Heidi... here are pictures of the creations. I think they turned out pretty cute. My niece was here this weekend to help me with a yard sale. Then we went to eBay's company party. We were so busy and so tired we completely forgot to make jewelry! McKenna come back soon so we can do it :)
