Amethyst and Coral

These twisted wire necklaces are always fun. The possibilities are endless. I have  always loved the combination of purples and reds together. It has a  somewhat of a "Bohemian feel" and the colors look so rich and royal. I used amethyst nuggets, dyed jade and dyed coral beads. There are purple crystals scattered through out the necklace.

Pink shell pendant and earrings

As requested by a customer, these earrings and matching pendant were made to go with the pink shell dangle bracelet in the previous post. The pendant is a free form mosaic, organic in design made from copper wire, pink shell, dyed cherry red jade nuggets, and stone beads. The earrings are made with dainty copper chain, two kinds of pink shell beads and red jade. All balled head pins are hand made with torch to create that rosy pink hue.

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.
