My husband has always encouraged me to try new artsy-craftsy pursuits. And thanks to him, I have now taken an interest in making jewelry. I started out thinking stringing beads on chord was all there was to it. Now I know better - I know when to use flat nose pliers and when to use round nose ones, I know how to use crimp beads, jump rings, and all those thingamajigs, and I can almost work with jewelry wire without poking myself in the eye.
This weekend I sat down to complete two jewelry projects. The first is a bracelet of pink pearls and crystal bicones, along with matching earrings. The second is a necklace and bracelet made of jades that my BFF gifted me (earrings for the jade set are WIP).
Pretty, ain't it? All I need now is an occasion to show off :)
