New Bracelets!

There are only two, but these two bracelets are ones I made while on my short little vacation to Florida. I always take my beads on vacation, whether I get to them or not. I'm not much of a tv watcher, so after dishes are done, this is what relaxes me ...... making jewelry! Hope you like them!


The bracelet below is made with some leftover beads, mostly glass. The orange nuggets I picked up at the annual Rock, Gem and Mineral Show I attend every year at the end of February. Not sure what they are exactly, but I usually buy what I like and not because it's a certain gem. I really liked the combination with the blue and have worn this more than I expected I would.








I love the finding that allowed me to have these pretty dangles! I thought it just set this bracelet off!





The bracelet below is my "Sparkler"!! I love sparkle, and this does nothing but sparkle! I purchased these brilliantly faceted beads at the same Rock, Gem and Mineral Show.

Jewelry I've Made for Gifts


A necklace my daughter and I made for her teacher.




Necklace made with a flower lampwork bead and black faceted rondells as the focal piece. The rolo chain dangle drops are made with pink faceted rondells, a black faceted rondell, and ab bicone crystals.
