Twice as nice, Holiday / Christmas in July…
14th Non Blogger -Blogger Design Challenge

 

 l Iearned a lot during these last 2 Challenges, organized by Rita / Toltec School of Jewelry. 
And I have seen ( a for me) totally new kind of Chicklet. And now I’m  celebrating  Holiday I
n July  in The Netherlands,  for the very first time J  After searching on Google what
it means, it’s clear to me!

It was fun designing and creating my ‘X-mas’ pieces, at 20 something degrees Celsius! 
So I choose the ‘Sparkling Holiday’ Theme, I love crystals  ☼ silver ☼ and
freshwater pearls ☼. And teal -ish and blue-ish colors too.

My first piece is a pair of earrings,
made with facetted rock crystal and a few Jade hand cut leaves.
The ear hook is made of Sterling Silver. Very wearable, the whole year round J!

 

The second piece is a bracelet – yes, there is almost always a bracelet present in
my challenges!!! – I used Shell pearls, freshwater pearls, facetted Aquamarine,
Angel Stone, Moon Stone & Opalite ……
The center piece is a ceramic button, made by Birgitta Lejonklou. She became
a very good FB Friend since the 7^th Bead Soup Café Party last year,
and let me tell you, we chat a lot!

 

 

Last but not least, my third piece, it’s a ring topper on a sterling Silver ring.
The ring has a screw on it, inside the topper is a bold.  I made  it with Moretti soft glass,
some silver glass and decorated the topper with murini and a big swirl!  I’m having my X-mas party on the beach!

 

Three!!! pieces this time, made in 1 theme. A great Challenge!
Thanx for hosting this one Rita, and see you on FB and...
in the upcoming Challenges next month.
