Ok two more...
1) Sea Turtle Bracelet ~
Made with a silver plated open work turtle and silver plated O chain with a lobster clasp for the closure. My new favorite beads are being introduced, the mermaid glass beads, this bracelet is made with 6, 8 and 10mm. I love the surprise flash of irredecent color that happens with movement. You have to see it in person to understand what I mean.
Another custom order as you get to choose the color of your beads, matte black or matte white. The best sizes of bracelets are anywhere between 6 1/2 inches to 8 inches. Keep in mind you will want a little play or movement on your wrist for this bracelet. For fun, I also added a little silver plated spiral with a 6mm mermaid bead charm at the clasp.

And 2) 21 Disco Ball ~
You may recognize this as it is simular to the Snowballs from last month (which will remain available year round). The only difference is these rhinestones have the AB (Aurora Borealis) finish that gives it the dancing rainbow flash of color. Very pretty. Also the same great price. I have lots of these available. They make great gifts to give as well.

Isn't she sweet?
A little Rosette Ring.
Simple and yet elegant. Unique and a one of a kind creation, no two will be alike. These are made with 20 gage copper wire or 20 gage silver plated copper wire. No mass production as you get to choose your color of wire, size of rosette and of course a ring size is needed. Rosette will vary in size and won't be exact, but I will get as close to what you want as possible. For example, the copper ring has a 9.3mm rosette and the silver plated rosette is 11.4mm. The best sizes of the rosette are anywhere from 6 to 12mm.

I love this ring as the possibilities for variations are endless. There is already one (or more β€πŸ’πŸ˜Œ) on my work table. I can't wait to show you...soon πŸ’—

Where has the time gone? I didn't realize I hadn't posted in like 5 days. I don't know about you, but post Christmas is most challenging for me. It's a busy time, trying to keep up with the cleaning up from all the celebrations and feeling like getting nowhere with it, fellowshiping, working fulltime, and looking at my pile of stash (beads and "things") and dreaming of and planning and making my next creations. You won't be disappointed with what's on my work table and will be revealed in the next day or so.

Thinking of you ~

I John 4.9-11

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

Just in...
I was able to find the supplies to make the Star of Bethlehem earrings again.

Think beyond this time of season that we celebrate the birth of our Savior. Think how the guiding star lead wise men who were seeking...

Be seekers and follow the Guiding Light every day all year long.

(I can also make this into a pendant as pictured and in different chain lenghts. Chains may vary and I will verify with you before recieving)

The Snowballs are back! I barely got them made up and they are almost gone! For those of you on the very top of the Oregon Coastal Line, I can have what I have left to you for Christmas. Again, I will work on getting a restock, some may have a different look to them, but just as pretty and sparkly.

Sadly the Star of Bethlehem is now sold out. I'm not sure about a restock on these yet. For those of you who have them, don't forget to wear them on the 21st! I will be wearing mine 🌟

Red Tulip 🌷~
A 14mm red pressed faceted glass coin bead, topped off with a 6mm red faceted cut glass rondell, all suspended in a 4 point tulip bead cap, swiveling from a wire wrapped loop on a fish wire earring.

Thank you all for your suggestions, encouragement and support as I struggled thru the process of making these earrings. These are sooo pretty and ready to be enjoyed for years to come. My vision was to create a simple, elegant yet stunning piece AND I wanted them to be wearable year round for special occasions as well as casual. In my book: mission accomplished! Again, thank you.

They will be featured on my website.

Ok...the red coin bead saga.
To be honest, I wasn't completely thrilled with my creation posted below, but it was the closest I could get to and to be ok with it. I was really stuck on trying to make it so that the focal bead wouldn't spin/rotate on its axel. With all the suggestions that came thru from you guys I was encouraged to improve. I put it aside for a moment and was digging thru my stash to prepare to work on something else and I came across these tulip bead caps and it was instantly clear what I needed to do. I have let go of keeping the bead from spinning around, and let it do what its created to do. Anyway...

So I still need you all to help me decide if additional beads are needed and how many. If you have cast your vote below and would like to keep it, you can and it will count towards the drawing, or if you change your mind you can do that too based on the new look.

The voting will end tomorrow still at midnight as indicated in the last post.

I'm really happy with the new direction and I love these - and now I even have a name -
