Evening Falls -Amethyst and Sterling Silver Bracelet





This bracelet look a lot of time. It's made with sterling silver chain, AAA+ grade amethyst 6mm and 4mm rounds and sterling silver 4mm and 2mm round beads. Every link in the chain has a wrapped doo-dad. I had to stop to make headpins twice because I kept running out.

Gemstone Cluster Earrings




I made these earrings today. They are full of beautiful faceted gemstones in shades of blue and green. There was some swearing involved. I broke a gem and had to partially dismantled one earring, and I struggled to create mirror images. I think I did a decent job though. Not quite perfect, but perfection is over rated!

Quick and Easy Earring Stand

Here is a tutorial for the basic stands I make for my earrings.




Materials: Wire, I use rebar, or tie wire, you can find it at any harware store, and pliers.




Uncloil some wire but don't cut it yet, and bend a loop in the end



Bend another loop in the other direction.





Bend the wire straight down in the center of the "T"




Bend the wire at a right angle.



Now make a loose coil for the foot of your stand. The taller the stand, the wider the foot you will need. Cut the end and you done!




Finished product! You can definitly get more elaborate if you want, but this one literaly takes seconds to make.
