MANEWELRY MONDAY

Our first piece in this new series is a deceptively large cuff(that blue kyanite bead is 1.5″ high!). It’s paired with turquoise chips, Bali silver, and copper. There is no elasticity to the bracelet so it closes easily with a simple magnetic clasp.

SUCCESSFUL DESIGN CONCEPTS

SUCCESSFUL DESIGN CONCEPTS

As a designer, there are few things that are as exciting as coming up with an idea and discovering that the final product matches the original sketch.

These are the first official pieces of 2013 and I’m happy to see the year is starting off well.

Using recycled resin spikes(never underestimate the value of sample sales for supplies), faceted turquoise teardrops, red jasper, coral, bali silver and oodles of silver chain, these two necklaces work wonderfully alone or together.

On my neck today…

Two of my favourite delicate and lightweight necklaces, both made from turquoise(a mixture of Iranian and Tibetan), have been layered to create a cascade of silver with a pop of colour.
