Friday… a bellyful of jewellery!

Hello everyone, who cames form etsy’ forum knows I promote jewellery once a week… and the dedicated day is … Friday!

Happy Halloween to everybody… more tricks and less treats… ok? ;)

Go on with promotion and let’s start with a very particular ring…

21 Rough, uncut diamonds attached to a .999 silver ring, hand forged from 10 guage wire. After hammering, the ring is hand polished and hardened. Really precious!

A jazzy bracelet is my second choise for today… ” Red hot chilli” is the name seller have choosed fo it and I am in unison with her!

You will appear like a sexy red pepper!

This amazing piece was hand-crafted using an assortment of high quality beads which includes Pretty orange dotted red glass beads, Snowy white glass spacer beads and Silver metal spacer disc beads
Measures approx. 7 1/4″ Inches.

 

Are you still sighing for springtime?

Don’t worry! I have the right antidote!

“Artfully handmade polymer beads with a colorful floral design make this necklace incredibly special. Bold purple Sugilite Jasper rondells, New Jade, and olive green freshwater pearls make these fantastic beads pop. The winning combination of purple and some green is unique and beautiful.”

During this boring rainy winter … It will be a success !!!

If instead you are thinking about next summer jet….. don’t miss “Acquatica”!

“Hand painted leather is the base for this piece. There are glass beads, a bit of amber, lots of coral, hardware, shells, pearls, and semi precious stones. It measures 15 3/4″ in length with an additional 2 3/4″ of chain. so that you can wear it at various lengths and 1″ wide. You will not feel the wire on the reverse side.” Every piece is unique!

Are you thinking it’s too gaudy? You should wear it on the simplest white Tee…

Pure and white is the theme for these really cute earrings!

Seller has handwrapped  beautiful 4mm white swarovski crystal pearls with stainless steel wires on the hoops.
This pair of earrings measure about 1″ and is super light-weight.

Perfect for a special occasion, but for a school day too!

 

Extremely refined is the today’s second ring…

“It’s pink, it’s sweet, it’s rectangular…….it’s Bubble Yum! No it’s more than just bubble yum because it sparkles with swarvoski crystal accents, copper swirls, strawberry quartz and a copper wrapped band.”

But if pink isn’t your favorite color… you can find something similar in the store… the Icy Blue Chalcedony Wreath Ring…

And if you like icy jewellery you can find a winter bracelet for sale in the Anjali Designs’s shop: it’s made with various sizes of glass beads, some are frosted others are clear with silver lining. It will go with any outfit! But there is more: earring could be made to match and other colors are also available.

A surely inusual choise is this other bracelet… fine silver slip layered onto a real vine. This item takes at least 2 weeks of labor to make, and requires multiple firings. Then a bronzey-gunmetal-colored patina is applied to give the texture additional realism and accent, and stones are set. Fine Silver is .999 pure.


If you love Rainbow Moonstone this piece will really intrigue and excite you!

Come back down to earth… and enjoy these funny Round felt hair clips!

 

They are so funny that will look cute in any hair! They are great to use in little girls hair and big enough for your own hair. It also gives you a different look if worn on a sweater, belt, you name it!

They are very light weight, soft, and comfy to wear ranging in size from 1” to 1.5″ dia. with a strong 1” alligator metal hair clip.

Each piece is truly unique and one of a kind…no two are ever the same!

 

After all these fabulous samples of handmade jewellery art, today I want finish this post with a simple but impressive pendant…
This pendant is handmade using Kato polymer clay and a 16-18 inch cotton cord is included.

Take a look at this etsy.store beacause I’ve choosed one of the many pendants but there is a multiple choise and they are all different and all amazing!
