last minute gifts

making some last minute gifts for christmas

everyone needs a little something sparkly for the holidays

making it big, necklace that is

not long ago,

john bead outlet had a sale on these wonderful bezels

buy 2 get 10 free

its always good to have a stash on hand 

for when an idea hits you

i also pick ups a variety of crosses at bead dynasty

going through my stash i also found some acrylic flowers

which look great with the necklace below

more skull jewelry

as always, one thing leads to another and another

i enjoyed the last 2 necklaces so much and had some leftover

skulls and just had to make more

searching through my stash i found a fun skull cameo and lava beads

combined with red pearls and metal  

i like the look

(below)

i also found a cross which i filled with resin clay

 and added some howlite and turquoise

chain reaction

it always starts with one little thing which sends me down a path to making a ton more

these little skulls i found at the john bead outlet

they matched perfectly with my leftover howllite

a bit of chain and some nylon coated wire

after wearing it out, a few friends wanted one of there own

which lead me to several more

i love this one below

turquoise inspiration

last  weekends sale at the john bead outlet

got me buying stones i normally couldn't afford

but with 50 percent off , how could i resist

below just a few samples of what i purchased

playing around with different combos and

finally something sparked

something a little different for me

i think i will enjoy this new style

 

gemstone necklace

switching it up from flat leather to gemstones

my friend carmi introduced me to

john beads semi-precious bead line

fire and ice agate

of course I had to incorporate some wire

and some new neo chain
