See what I've been up to!

It's been a while since I've posted.  Got to be in the mood to make jewelry!  So, here's some of my latest creations.....


I got this design from eebeads.  They have designs that you can purchase and make yourself.  I just added a little touch! :D
 

I purchased these from a nice lady on Facebook. 

 

Bracelet made with
Turquoise Hearts and 4m Jet Bicone Crystals
 

Metallic Green Magatama Long Beads and Metallic Striped Discs

matching earrings
 
matching bracelet
 
 
 
I've been experimenting in a little bead work and here's the results:

Flat spiral with 12m and 6m Thunder Polish Crystals
 

Smoky and gun metal crystal rondelles with metallic seed beads
as a necklace.  The pictures do not this justice!  This was a gorgeous piece! 
It sold right away!  (I'll have to make another for myself now. :()  )

Rose with gun metal rondelles and baby pink seed beads

 
I loved this style so much, that I went a little crazy designing them in different colors.
 Rose, Gun Metal and Smoky Rondelles
 
Dyed Blue Howlite with Sapphire 4m bicones and dark blue seed beads

Red Velvet rondelles, pearl seed beads and hematite 4m rounds

10mm green swirl faceted beads with 4m opaque periodot beads
 and dark green seed beads.  This green is very popular for this season.
 
Here's a clearer picture.
 
 
 
I can't remember the name of these beads
but, the rectangle beads are a jasper.  Just not sure
which ones.
 

This is a nine strand bracelet that someone challenged me to make.  It came out
really nice and the same person loved it!! 
 
Here's some beadwork that I learned from Potomac Bead Company
this is the Cadesus bracelet using Super Duo beads.  This came out really nice!  I guess
after making so many big bracelets, this one is really dainty.  :D


 And this one is my Hugs and Kisses bracelet.  One of the ladies at my job said that purple was her favorite color.  So, off I went to figure out what to make for her.  I learned this too from Potomac Bead Company.  I'm really going to have to buy something from them soon - they're teaching me so much!  This was another easy design - using two needles (right angle weave) and then you add the xoxo design on top.  It was a lot of fun to make (I made two and have another coming).  Oooh, just thought of another color. 



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Okay, this is all I can show off right now - lol!  Time for bed and new creations tomorrow!  Have a good night!
