I'm back....again!

I can't believe I've let almost 7 months pass without updating this blog.  If you're still visiting my blog, you're a trooper, cuz you probably visit more than I do!  What must I do in order to make sure I stay on track?

Yesterday I sent off a set consisting of necklace, bracelet and earrings to C for her wedding.  She asked me to make it last year and as you can see I am a procrastinator in all areas - even in my hobbies [blush]. 

Without further ado, here is her set:

The bracelet that I love...so much so that I made an extra one!

 By comparison, the necklace is much simpler, because her wedding gown has thick, red halter straps.

And even simpler earrings...(sorry for the poor lighting)

  This is the original version of the necklace.  I like it a lot actually, and I think it'd go well with a strapless dress, but we had to modify it for the halther gown.

Hope you like it, C!

My sister's favourite earrings

Despite being a few years old, my sister still wears these all the time. I made these earrings with black chain and black findings to go with the black 'oval' at the bottom. The blue and orange crystals really make the earrings pop, and the butterfly add a softer touch.

Who would have thought 5 different shapes would come together so nicely?

Porcelain flower earrings

These earrings are made with the same porcelain flower as in this bracelet, but smaller. I just love the flower!

Did you see the matching bracelet below?

Pink crystal hoop earrings

These earrings were made to go with the Irresistable sparkle bracelet. I've used the same large pink crystal with the smaller clear and pink ones up top. If you prefer a simpler version, what about sans smaller crystals?

Orange dangle crystal set

This is another set that I made for one of my bridesmaids. I wanted something that would look good with a low strapless dress while having an "elongating" effect (accomplished by gradually shorter/smaller crystals at the sides).

Crystal cluster earring

What style of earrings would be more versatile than the cluster earring? This earring was made with a pink/purple theme and a silver leaf at the bottom for a casual summery look. For a more elegant look, I'd opt for darker tan and grey crystals with a teardrop crystal at the bottom.

I've also shown a simpler version without the leaf below.

Variations of the pearl dangling earring

Pearl can be casual and it can be dressy. Here are some examples of simple versions of both. More intricate ones to come!

Teardrop necklace + earring set

Black chain and smokey grey / tan teardrop crystals give this design an elegant look. And that yellow crystal really pops!

Definitely one of my favs!

Simple dangling earrings

Simple, yet so pretty! Each earring is made of 2 pear-shaped crystal, one light pink and one dark pink. I love that they're pretty enough to wear with dresses yet simple enough to go with jeans. Did I tell you pink is my favourite colour? So you'll be seeing lots of pinks (and purples!)

Simple interchangeable earrings

Simple, interchangeable, versatile. Need I say more? I love these earring hooks! Now I just need to think of some designs to dangle and change up once in a while.

Did I mention they're great for casual and evening wear?
