You must not be afraid to sparkle a little brighter

Today I am sharing a couple of fun creations I was commissioned to make by a special customer.  Having purchased several of our sparkly beaded and crystal jewellery pieces, she asked me to create matching pieces for several of them so she could rock the matching jewellery look.

The first piece feature some of my favourite jewellery supplies to work with, Swarovski crystals.  The brief was to make a dainty necklace to match as closely as possible to our crystal navette earrings, and I had a blast finding just the right Swarovski crystal to turn into a solitaire pendant.

The second creation was a pair of matching earrings for our vineyard-inspired necklace, which features one of my favourite colour combinations in nature, purple and green.

So let me ask you: do you love to wear matching jewellery?  Or are you an eclectic type who wears whatever tickles your fancy?

Bookworm necklaces

This week I have been excitedly adding to our bookworm necklace range, with two gorgeous additions that are close to my heart!  This first one contains one of my most favourite Jane Austen quotes, Captain Wentworth's heartfelt confession to Anne Elliot.

The second is a favourite for many who loved the 1985 version of Anne of Green Gables - "True friends are always together in spirit".  Which of these two quotes do you love best?  Or do you have another quote you would love to see embodied in a piece of jewellery?  Drop me a line and let me know!
