Resort style jewellery

Hey all,

I've created a new board on my pinterest site for resort style jewellery that I like and would love to wear myself. (If only I had lots of money and could buy all the lovely jewellery pieces I find on ETSY!)

Have a look at my board and follow me if you are on pinterest.

I love creating boards, when I was at college we were always having to create "mood" boards to show our inspirations and design development, pinterest is great for doing this and is WAY easier and less messy then making a board with glue and torn out pages from magazines etc!!!

I love wearing natural boho style jewellery that is relaxed and has a beach/surf style. This is one one of my pieces that is made from gorgeous jasper gemstones and is my interpretation of resort style jewelery.

The picture below is also made from jasper. This was the first piece of jewellery that I sold on Etsy (I really wanted to keep it for myself!) I think it has a resort style too.

On etsy you are able to put together a collection of items from peoples shops, for any purpose. Here is my collection of beautiful items I admire from other shops on the theme ...Going native

Another Hair Clip

I go through little fazes where I am making lots of items using the same technique. At the minute I'm really enjoying making different hair clips using seed beads and wire.

Here is another hair clip I recently made.

I love this design! I think a pair of them put into pigtails would look soooo cute! (Can't wait for my little girl to grow some hair.)

Beaded Poppy Hairclip

A friend asked me to make a beaded hair clip for her daughter to go with a dress after she saw another beaded flower hair clip I had made for another friend. The dress had these lovely bright red and black flowers on so I thought a beaded poppy would look really nice with it. This is a picture of the end product. I am really happy with it and think it has a real cottage chic style to it.

I'm now selling it as a made to order item in my etsy shop.

Gemstone flower design necklace

So I've become addicted to Jewellery Maker shopping channel... It's all just soooo pretty! I brought these beads from JM and they are gorgeous!

This is a stunning necklace made with brown Chinese Jade Plain Rounds 10mm. blue Afghanistan Lapis Lazuli rounds 4mm and Jasper plain roundels 14x10mm hung from a silver colour chain. The gemstones have been beaded to create a beautiful feature flower design pendant. These gorgeous gemstones are intense in colour and have lovely inflections within them. The length of the beaded chain is 61cm or 24" and the feature drop flower design is 5cm x 6cm. .

The necklace is still for sale on my ETSY site, click here to take a look at it and my other pieces.

Bookmark

I love reading and always have a book on the go, despite this I always seem to be short of a book mark when I need one. Those free cardboard ones never last two minutes and I'm forever loosing them, so I thought I nice beaded bookmark would last forever and be hard to loose. I think these make great gifts, here is a beaded bookmark design I'd like to try.

Earrings

I went bead shopping recently to my local shop, here are some of the earrings I made with the beads I brought.

The clear glass beads with the lace effect detail are gorgeous! I made some various designs recently using these beads and have been asked to make some more of these earrings because they are really liked.

              These gold designs are very simple, but it seems to be the simplest designs that sell the quickest.

there so beautiful!

After spending the day on the sofa unwell I stumbled across a great channel selling gemstone beads. I thought being gemstones they would all be really expensive but was surprised to find them very reasonably priced. How I went this long without knowing jewellery maker is beyond me. Check out their website and have a look at the lovely beads.
