Colors in Contrast

I just recently put this necklace together. I bought the olivine jade doughnut beads this past summer in Tucson and have been waiting for the inspiration to make something with them. So the other night I pulled them out of my stash of beads and started laying them next to other beads that I had out and I came up with the smokey purple pearls and decided that was the match. The necklace itself is bold and refreshing, which is just what I like when the winter months start to creep up.

Blue Moons

I made this bracelet for a friend of mine last week. She had bought another bracelet from me and I had decided to send her something blue, as she has been telling me to make something blue for a while now. I have known this friend since around the same time that I found my first bead store and fell in love with beads. In fact I think one of the first pieces of jewelry that I ever made was for this friend of mine, so it is only fitting that she is now the owner of this beautiful bracelet made of labradorite, kyanite, freshwater potato pearls, lamp work beads and sterling silver.
