Earrings and a Sunstone Pendant!

I'm having a busy weekend so far, but I did take this morning to make a few pieces.

I used brown ribbon necklace with this beautiful Sunstone pendant with brown undertones.  

Using black metal plated findings, amethyst beads, Chinese garnet beads and onyx beads, I put together some earrings. 

Here is the end result.  

With dyed red coral beads and onyx.......worked on a second pair.

The end result......with the square beads.

Pics are a bit blurry, need to get my camera fixed. More projects to work on this weekend.  Time to weed the garden!

Earrings of the day 2.2.13

Michael's had their 70% off jewelry sale this week and this was the find, Dyed Red CoralBamboo Beads. 

These pair are a bit on the long side.  I think these beads would look great on a hoop earring, just like chipped beads do.  

The end result....

These would not work well with stud earrings, but dangling.  Quick and easy pair.  I have been busy as  of late with work projects and ebay stuff.  I hope to start working on some Cosplay projects soon.

Earrings of the day 1/16/13 and Lego Friends Rehearsal Stage

Alright!  Gotta break out the red with the black.  Red Dyed Coral beads and Black Onyx.  I like the natural coral, but it's pretty pricey and there is more dyed red coral available out there!

The coral beads had really small holes, so some of the beads did not slide on the pin smoothly.  Oh well.......I made it work.  I want to do a variation of these earrings and make them a little bit shorter.  Maybe used the dyed red coral chipped beads.  

After I was done, I decided to break open my Lego Friends set," the Rehearsal Stage".

Apparently, I am regressing to the age range of 6-12.  Now it's playtime!
