Jewelry Projects

Okay – now that I’m catching up on my posts, I realize that there have been lots of words but very few pictures (and a picture is worth a thousand words, right?). So here are some photos of some jewelry projects I’ve been working on recently…

One great thing about working is that I have more opportunities to wear fun jewelry pieces. Not that I get dressed up every day – this week, I wore jeans twice because it was just too cold!

I made another bracelet from the French General kit included with Paula’s Kit Club’s February Easter-themed kit:

P2210018

I just love this! The little white pieces are shaped like eggs. I wore this the other day with a green sweater – it’s so cute!

Speaking of green, I made several other green pieces lately:

P2210008

These pieces have some pretty green freshwater pearls.

P2210009

This bracelet was from a kit as was this necklace:

P2210015

I also made this necklace with a vintage opal stone:

P2210019

And here are two pairs of earrings:

P2210012

The pair on the right are made with a vintage topaz glass stone wrapped with filigree. The earring on the left shows the back and the one on the right shows the front.

Ooh – I also found this kit on clearance at TJ Maxx of all places:

P2210014

I was from K & Company and I added the photos of my family to make a pretty charm bracelet.

Speaking of charm bracelets, I made this one to wear with red for Valentine’s Day:

P2210005

It has several vintage red stones as well as some new stones, charms and crystals.

I also made this simple piece with a matching pair of earrings:

P2210007

And this necklace and earrings with wire-wrapped pink glass drop beads:

P2210013

I am really having fun making pieces that I can wear the very next day – it’s instant gratification, and you get to wear your ‘art’ on your sleeve, so to speak! 🙂

Next I want to make a series of button bracelets with a bunch of vintage buttons that I found in my stash…
