Bead show!

Had a great time at the bead show again this year!  Loved getting to spend 5 whole days with my daughter who is living there while attending the St. Louis College of Pharmacy!

I got lots of neat beads.....all sparkly of course and I have already started on some new things!

This bracelet was my first project when I got home!  It is a memory wire bracelet that I added a small soldered pendant to.  It is tied on so you can wear it plain or tie on a different one for a change.  It didn't last long though and is on its way to its new home!!!

I also started on some fancy chains that you can hang your pendants from.  I seem to be picture challenged with my jewelry though.  This necklace is just so sparkly and beautiful.  Made with smoke colored crystal beads and glass pearls in grey with a large clasp for hanging your pendants and baubles.

Here it is with a pendant on it!

And of course don't forget to get entered in my give away!  As soon as I reach 200 likes on my facebook page I will be drawing for this awesome vintage key pendant!  Just like my page and share the post about the give away!!!

I have been making jewels!

Well, today in my spare time I put the finishing touches on some jewelry that I have been working on.  I just love making jewelry!  I will be selling these things but I don't have anything set up yet so if you are interested just shoot me an email!

I love this saying!  This necklace is hammered and stamped out of copper.

This is a vintage crystal that I soldered around and wrapped in copper wire.  It is all antiqued and then I added a bling ball.  It is really sparkly in person!  My fav!

This cuff is hand etched brass that I added an antique rhinestone to and wrapped with copper wire with shiny beads...so pretty!

This was my first cuff I made!  I love it!  I can see me making many more of these.  I got some really cool antique things to put in the little boxes!

Well, thats my excitement for the day I hope you like my jewels!!!
