I made the "Evelyn" necklace shortly after she was born. I was aching to make my 'momma' necklace my entire pregnancy. But that's hard to do when you don't know the gender of the baby. I gotta tell ya...this was a difficult necklace to make. Any little mistake in the stamping led me to re-melting down the gold, re-hammering it back out flat, re-polishing it...etc. I probably did this 4 times before I got it right. When it comes to jewelry, I'm a bit of a perfectionist. That fact makes my life difficult sometimes! Ugh. The moldovite necklace is something I made to layer with the Evelyn necklace. I LOVE moldovite. It is the most stunning shade of green (love). I bought 4 stones about 2 years and have not been able to part with them. I also made a pearl pendant to layer with Evelyn but I forgot to take a photo of it. Anyway...
Vessuvianite and variegated green amethyst.
Crazy lace agate (this stone is AMAZING in person).
The most beautiful green/gold freshwater pearls knotted on matching green silk.
Chalcedony
Earrings to match
Pearl studs...love these!
Little rustic hoops
Mmmmm, paisley and pearls. Does life get any better?!
An authentic 100+ year old Indian charm (called "Patri").
Silvery-aqua freshwater pearls
I love this color combination of pearls...it's fresh.
And some bracelets to match!There you have it. New jewelry. Now I need to attack my next project, new tags for the gallery jewelry. I have no ideas so far. Hmph.
Other than that--life continues to be good. Take care ; )
