Green earrings

These earrings were shaped and then hammered into triangle dangles. I coiled and weaved the frame with copper wire and then added faceted green beads .They swing from handmade earring wires adorned with little jade beads. I also did some weaving and wrapping.

Autumn


This bracelet has  the pretty colors of  my favorite season. I added lots of warm stones in different shapes and sizes. There is agate jaspers, green jades, orange and amber jades, green carnelian jades, orange carnelians, aqua blue shell beads and lots of copper. They are attached with handmade rose head pins.

Fragments of summer


Summer is leaving us a little more every day. I can feel it in the crisp night air. I have dishes of mismatched summer beads on my desk. I had a handful of pastel briolettes lingering around like the last days of summer. They remind me of the Fragments of Summer.  I had just enough to make a scrumptious bracelet. There are turquoise, apple dyed jade, hot pink and light pink chalcedony, green chalcedony, butterscotch chalcedony, Aqua blue chalcedony, rose quartz, green adventurine, howlite, and swarovski crystals. The clasp is a 14kt gold filled heart toggle. What I really love is how it feels on my wrist. Very comfortable and rich.
