Jasper and agate choker

Alternating jasper and agate discs that fall very comfortably on the neckline.

Amalie

I love these dyed jade nuggets. They remind me of yummy cherry cola. I wrapped them to a copper frame that I made. I dove into the project while I was caring for my sick dog, Amelie. As we spent the day together, alone in my room, I dove into this project to keep my mind busy. She passed away Friday. She will be missed very much. The necklace is named after her.

Bubbles

This design was inspired by bubbles. I made this necklace at the end of summer. I love how bubbles capture a rainbow of iridescent colors. I only used my round nosed pliers and a marker to form the groups of circles. The pink shells and Swarovski crystals fit perfectly inside the circles to splash my bubbles with color. The chain is made from crocheted copper wire with little pink glass beads. The clasp was hand made from copper. It's amazing how much you save when you make all of your own findings.

"Midori"






Midori is the Japanese word for "green." I love the color of these Howlite nuggets. They have different shades of greens ranging from lime sherbert to Kelly green. There is also lime faceted glass beads and green swarovski crystals. The color green is also associated with emotions, money, and has healing power. The choker measures approximately 16 inches in length and can be doubled to fit perfectly around the wrist as a bracelet. It has a ornate, silver toned, magnetic clasp which is strong and durable for these chunky nuggets.
