What I've been up to lately...more handmade jewelry


Posted by Colleen Shirazi, Wednesday, August 30, 2006 1:33 PM (Eastern)

I think...I am finally producing final pieces that are more than just your string o' beads.

It's harder than it looks. Not the technical part, because that requires only practice. It's more the notion of being able to step into a bead store with hundreds of kinds of beads and materials, and from there produce a finished piece.

The earrings on the left are labradorite paired with quartz crystals. The necklace and the other earrings are jade, paired with, respectively, quartz crystals and freshwater pearls.

I still need to make a third pair of earrings, conforming to my theory that each necklace needs three pairs of earrings to go with it. The third pair will have to be simpler but I haven't decided yet which style.
