Mother's Day and Something (or two) I made.

Instead of buying something this year I decided to make Mom #1 and Mom #2 (in law) a piece of jewelry in honor of Mother's Day.

For Mom #1 I have not yet defined her style. She likes simple things, and I came up with this eagle necklace in about 10 minutes while looking at my supplies going, "huh."

It is made with Eagle Eye Jasper, Czech Glass, Gunmetal, and Japanese Glass Seed Beads. The eagle pendant is made from diamond cut pewter for a beautiful detailed look.



For Mom #2 she likes to dress up and go out from time to time so I decided to make her a double strand bracelet.

It is made with Sterling Silver, Rhodium, Pewter, and Swarovski Crystals and Pearls.

Mother's Day (part 2)

I made my fiance's mother a matching bracelet, earrings, and necklace set for Mother's Day.

She is going to receive it a few days late, but it will be worth the wait. I used light sapphire crystals because that is her son's birthstone color.

She has a unique taste in jewelry, and I thought the light sapphire complimented the blacklip shell pendants beautifully. I can already see her wearing the set to work with her to show off to her friends.

The shell pendants display a beautiful Aztec design.


They are made with Sterling Silver, Swarovski Light Sapphire Crystal, Czech Glass, Pewter, and Blacklip Shell.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!

For Mother's Day I am going to present this lovely horse necklace and a matching bracelet, along with a few other little goodies.

It's made with pewter, sterling silver, black labradorite, Swarovski Aquamarine Satin crystals, and Czech glass.

I was nervous at first because I didn't think the selected materials would go well, but I am happy with the finished product.

The horse pendant was cut using diamond tipped machines...beautiful detail work.

Finished off with a lovely filigree heart toggle clasp.

Thank you so much for looking!

Happy Mother's Day!
