The Blue Queen Necklace

Blue Labradorite (aka Spectrolite) is by far my favorite gemstone right now!  I love the blue and blue green flash it creates with light and movement.  If you love sparkle and want to *glow* in the dark, then this is the necklace for you!  It truly is the Queen of all blue stones!!



What do you think?  What is your favorite stone?

Cheers!

Swarovski Crystals at Artbeads

As an Artbeads Reviewer, I have the privilege of reviewing Swarovski crystals.  At Artbeads, they have a selection of 5,000+ Swarovski crystal elements, incluing but not limited to beads, rhinestones, pendants, components and more!!  So, you can imagine how hard it was for me to decide what to order! 

Well, here it is....Holiday party jewelry or so I call it.  I choose to make one with gold accents and one with silver accents.

Rubies & Gold...
The first necklace has Ruby Swarovski crystals, champange/gold freshwater pearls, light topaz Swarovski bicones and one beautiful 50mm De-Art Pendant in Crystal Golden Shadow.  It is gorgeous and I cannot wait to find the perfect dress to accomodate this necklace.






Rubies & Ice...
The second necklace has Ruby Swarovski crystals, light grey Swarovski pearls, crystal AB Swarovski bicones, sterling silver spacer beads and one beautiful 30mm Cosmic Ring Pendant in Crystal CAL V. It is gorgeous and I cannot wait to wear it with my dress to a wedding this weekend!!

The Gold Dreamsicle Necklace

What is your favorite color this fall? Do you like the fall colors or the new black & white combination?

One of my favorite stones this fall is Carnelian and I especially love it because it looks great on all skin tones (even mine)!!

I found this amazing strand at the International Gem & Jewelry Show in Houston.  And I just had to have them!  They are a brillant color of deep orange with very few flaws! Unfortunately, the seller only had one strand with this gorgeous color so I couldn't buy more...





Beautiful faceted Carnelian nuggets are featured on this necklace with gold tone wire balls, hammered disks and gold filled chain.

I will be making earrings to match this necklace as well! Enjoy!
