Jewelry!

Last week I told you about a benefit that was held for a friend who is recovering from a brain aneurysm.  There was a silent auction as part of that benefit and I wanted to share with you some of the jewelry I made for the auction.

 

I was really feeling the turquoise and red color them when I was at work, so I embraced it.  This piece I was strung on beading cord and finished with clam beads and a lobster clasp.


The pendant and earrings were made with non tarnish silver wire with wrapped loops.


The earring hooks are sterling silver.


The second set I made was also threaded on beading cord.


I finished it with cone beads and wire wrapped loops.


I really like that finish.


I was worried that the pendant bead would look awkward because it didn't lie flat, but I really loved it.  I paired it with simple non-tarnish loop earrings.


All of the pieces I donated sold and what's even better was that they were for a great cause.


Accessorizing and helping someone in need; it's a win, win if you ask me!


I hope you are having a lovely Wednesday!
