Inspired by Pink

Recently I have been going through my inventory and salvaging beads from creations that just don't make the cut anymore. Most recently I salvaged some pink Swarovski Pearls and some Indian Pink Swarovski Crystals. Without really thinking about an outcome I started to play around with ways to combine the two into one item, and I came up with this gorgeous little bracelet.

I just love it! This might be one that I'll have to pry myself away from if I decide to list it for sale. Another project of mine that I just recently completed would be this necklace and earring set made from Swarovski Pearls and Ruby Coral colored seed beads. I played with the design for a while before finally settling on one I liked.

I have also been working on making beaded ornament covers, but that's a post for another day.

New Earrings!

I've just finished a round of earring making and here are some of the results...

 

Pictured above are Basic Pearl Earrings in green, Crystal Fire Swirl Earrings, and Basic Pearl Earrings in Cream respectively. I have quite a few others as well, I just didn't feel like photographing them and the light wasn't good anymore. I have about a dozen different colors of the Swirl Earrings so far, with more waiting to be made.

For those of you who want to learn how to make a pair of basic earrings (like the Basic Pearls above) I will be posting a short tutorial tomorrow for what I call Project Thursday. It's gonna have pictures and everything!
