A Few New Listings

I wanted to show off a few new listings in my Etsy shop. The necklace is one made by my husband. He made the Celtic Star pendant using stainless steel jump rings and turned it into a necklace by adding red glass beads and metal spacer beads to a cord. I really like this one. He's made a few others using different beads and I've listed most of those too.

The other two are new pairs of earrings I made last night. One pair is made with blue cat's eye, white cat's eye, blue and white swirl glass cube beads and silver-plated spacer beads. The other are made using blue aventurine (looks purple), blue goldstone (looks black and sparkly), opal swarovski crystal and silver-plated spacer beads. The blue aventurine looks like it's different colors in the picture. While there are subtle differences in the coloring of each bead, it's not nearly as dramatic as it looks in the picture. It's not really noticeable at all unless you're looking closely. I think both pairs of earrings look very elegant!

In other news, related to my post about the violin, I took the plunge and trimmed my fingernails on my left hand really short so it'll be easier to play. I don't particularly keep my fingernails well-manicured anyway, but now I'll (hopefully) be trimming them regularly instead of letting them grow til they break (which is quite frequently, actually). Now, to actually play more regularly!

Purple Swarovski Crystal Earrings

I just listed these beautifully elegant earrings. They are made with purple Swarovski crystal and sliver-plated beads, along with silver-color beadcaps. I have another pair just like it, except using green Swarovski crystal that I just listed as well.

If you'd like to check these out, you can click here. While there, be sure to check out the green ones too! :)

Dice Earrings and a Purple Elephant

I recently listed these three pairs of dice earrings at my Etsy store. I have bracelets and a necklace that coordinate with these also listed. :)

Also, although you can't see all of her, these pictures feature a new addition. She's a crocheted purple elephant that a friend made for me to use with my shop. :) I thought her ears would be perfect for displaying new earring listings. I still need to work on the angle, lighting, and background, but I'm hoping she'll work out well in her role as mascot and model, hehe.

Also, remeber, this is the LAST DAY for for my FREE SHIPPING special! All orders from the US or Canada of $15 or more receive free shipping! Please visit my Etsy store for more information. :)
