Crystal Bezel Earrings

Thanks to the designers of FusionBeads.com I was able to make these earrings using their tutorial instructions :)
Sadly, there were no pictures in the tutorial so it was very tricky! These were definitely worth it though.
I used Antique Pink tear drop chaton stones and 3mm Amethyst bicones :)
Can't wait to wear these!

Blooming Crystals Bracelet

This pattern is by far my favorite even though it takes a while to finish (about a week).  I'll post the matching earrings soon :)  The purple colored bracelet has been a top seller and a customer favorite for long time.  I'm hoping to make either a pink crystal mix or a golden/brown crystal mix for this bracelet.  I just can't make up my mind!


Herringbone Bracelet

This is just one of the many colored Herringbone bracelets that I weave.  I'm always looking for new color inspirations :)  I'll post some of my other different colored bracelets of this same pattern in a few days

Bohemian Choker Necklace

A couple years ago I was clicking through the Freepeople site and I saw the most beautiful necklace I had ever seen. It was delicate but very intricate with tiny enamel covered drop pendants all around a beaded choker.  I stared at the pictures on the site trying to decipher the possible patterns and materials that were used for the necklace but the piece was just too detailed.  The years went by and I never found another like it until I saw almost the same necklace on the cover of a beading book (Bead Fantasies) at Barnes and Noble! I bought the book and supplies and the result was a twin of the beautiful necklace I had fallen in love with years ago :)

Leather Ruby Glass Bracelet

Here's another bracelet that I made from an Etsy tutorial: Tripple Row Leather Bracelet
I'd like to make one using crystal rondelles and chalcedony stones but I gotta keep myself on a budget or I'll go crazy!


Crystal Flower Rings!

These are just a couple of my top selling rings :) I love making these and the color combos are endless!






Simple Double Strand Bracelet

Just something simple that I put together using extra beads and links :)

Cleopatra Bracelet

This one took about 1 week to finish but it was definitely worth it.  I bought the tutorial from beadifulgifts.com :)
I'm planning to make another using Cyclamen Opal rondelles :)

Bauble Bracelet

I learned to make this bracelet from a lovely tutorial on Etsy.com :)

I had to make some slight changes to the design (I ran out of beads, ugh!) but I was still happy with it :)


Simple Crystal Bracelets

Less is definitely more with crystal bracelets.  The colors for this slender design were inspired by the crystal mixes from Fusionbeads.com
