IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!

TGIF!!!   JerBear starts his vacation at 5:00 today.  WOOHOOO!! 

I took Lucia to my bead store with me yesterday ,  and she found some beautiful Bronzite large pillow beads and we looked at pearls for her wedding jewelry.  I made the necklace and the bracelet last night while watching tv.


This next bracelet I decided to make for me.  I cut up a Turquoise necklace and my small  memory wire bracelet to have enough Turquoise beads for the six strands. 

It's a multi Turquoise with corals, coppers, silvers,  shell and ceramics. 

I'll be back after vacation,  so everyone have a great Thanksgiving!!

Monday's Photos

It's Monday and I finally photographed  the jewelry I was going to have posted on Friday!   Better late than never   I always wind up saying!! 

The first necklace is Monaco Agate and Ocean Jasper.  They go great together on this 19and a half inch necklace.  It's accompanied by African copper ,  some handmade copper links ,  and copper rings and chain. 
The second necklace is a large brass Tibetan bead surrounded by blue and red coral beads.  There are two Tibetan agates along with bone , African copper and my handmade chain and clasp.  It's 22 inches long.


This two strand necklace was one of the surfer necklaces I made earlier this year.   The blue-green Turquoise goes great with the African copper and also mixed in with the shells.     The necklace is 17 inches long and has a copper clasp.

This pearl necklace and bracelet has a large faceted Quartz bead sitting in the middle of both pieces.   There is sterling silver along with pearls and glass.   The necklace is 14 inches long. 


This next bracelet is  Cowgirl.       It has the colors of the earth and sky!   Along with copper and sterling silver,  there is Turquoise,  Sodalite, Pietersite, Coral,  Brecciated Jasper, Blue Calsilica and ceramic.    You can even hear her when you move your wrist!!


I hope you like these pieces.   All are pretty much casual except for the pearl pieces,  although they would look great with a white shirt and jeans. 

I've not finished Lucia's bracelet and I only have four full days before she gets here.  Don't worry Lucia,  it'll be finished,  and then we can start on your wedding jewelry!!  THAT will be fun!

Thanks for stopping by!!
