Jewellery Gift and Box on behalf of DS Brandon



My fella made this wonderful box as a present from my DS Brandon and inside were two little bags with mother of pearl beads and sterling silver findings for me to make up into a bracelet and earrings as shown in the second picture. By the way, the picture on the left of the box, Brandon looks like he’s being aggressive, but he is actually dancing to a children’s tune on Nickelodean LOL

Antique Gold Bracelet



My fella bought me the Lets Make Jewellery magazine issue 3 and I saw this gorgeous antique gold bracelet that I fell in love with. The one featured in the magazine was done in pink but I wanted to do blue and it turned out rather well. The beads are Swarovski bicones, rounds and pearls made up with antique gold findings and loopy daisies.

Bright and Cheerful



I made two birthday cards, 3 ATC's and 1 handbag charm from free felt flowers and bonus papers from a magazine - the bright and cheery nature of them really inspired me as these are not my usual style, but I had so much fun with them. All I needed was a few whatnots from my own stash - hope you like them all.
PS - the cute ladybird embellishment came from a RAK from the lovely Susan (Saramar).

Fimo Jewellery



I have made this necklace set for a friend of mines challenge blog (Sarah, Tiggertastic).
I only had red and white fimo so blended the two to get different shades of pink for the pendant and beads (I like pink hee hee). I then stamped an image into the pendant just with a rubber stamp flower I had and it turned out really well.
This is the first time I have ever used fimo and even made my own beads and I was really lucky it all turned out OK first time.
I've used pink cord and crimps to put the necklace together.

Autumn Handbag Charm


This is my very first handbag charm I made for a swap over at the CB forum. The theme was Autumn. I used golden leaf sequins and the round beads remind me of acorns.

Jewellery Swap August / September Red Earrings




I had the idea of organising a jewellery swap on the CB forum and it was received quite well. I held a vote to pick from three colours to make a pair of earrings (Red, Blue, Yellow). It was a close call between Red and Blue, but Red won. Participants then had to send their earrings to me by the closing date and I would organise swap partners and send out the earrings. I chose to be a swap partner with JulietK as I really liked her earrings. The are sterling silver hooks like mine and she had used sparkly silver balls which I really liked. Here is a picture of all the jewellery made (first), mine (second) and Juliets (third pic).

Green Drop Earrings


I made these earrings for my friend in work. She had seen a pink pair I made and liked them. She likes green so I made her a green pair - she really likes them but I think I need to take one of them home as the loop I made on the headpin seems a little tight and is causing the earring to twist and stay twisted. I'm a beginner and know I need to keep on really practicing making loops in headpins - not as easy as it looks.
