Rustic rough crystal quartz. Great for wire wrapping. The amethyst is gorgeous!

Awesome statement necklace for a summer wedding. The colors are so yummy! One of a kind. 

Strands...

Today was the last day of the GTS bead show that was held in Greensboro. GTS comes to the area about 4 times a year and I always go on the last day. You get the best deals!  I'm like a kid in the candy store when it comes to shopping for gemstones. It's my retail therapy. Here are some of the hip jewels I purchased today. Fell in love with the yellow jade strands. I went to the show for the sole purpose to buy ONLY turquoise. It's the perfect summer gemstone. As you can see, I purchased more than just turquoise.  Can't wait to start creating! 

Kyanite, lapis, turquoise, jade, agate, and hematite

Strands...

Happy Monday All!! Today I went to my last bead show of the year. I stocked up on some really pretty gemstones and findings. Really loving blues this season. Below are just a few of the strands that I purchased. A friend told me she wants me to go back to designing beaded necklaces with pendants. When I first started designing jewelry all I made was beaded necklaces and matching earrings. I got bored and changed my techniques and started incorporating metal wire and chain to my designs. This week I will be making some beaded necklaces and complementing earrings.

Love the flash of blue in the Labradorite gems

A splash of Neon.

It feels like Christmas to me! All these goodies to play with!

The Bluest Eye...

Simple...but still has that WOW factor! I love it for the summer! Now available here.
