Work Today

I have been working on some designs today and what came to mind was a piece I made few years back with three different gemstones. I was actually planning on making it with the new stones I just ordered but was too excited and decided to go ahead with what I have in stock. And the result...


Garnet, kyanite & labradorite
Will get better photos in natural sunlight tomorrow. It is really very pretty in person because of the different colors. And the labradorite has beautiful blue flash on it. The rest of the pieces...


Rainbow Moonstone & Peridot

It's written Jerusalem at the back of the cross - with amethyst gemstone
Labradorites

New Stuff

Will be posting some new items over the next few days. Here is just some of it. Please excuse the ugly pictures as it was taken indoors.

Amethyst onion with lever backs



Shell with garnet and black spinels

Rainbow Moonstones
The idea of the rainbow moonstone necklace came about when I layered my rainbow necklace (http://www.etsy.com/listing/90106055/rainbow-amethyst-peridot-citrine-garnet) with a marquise labradorite necklace. I tend to get ideas at the craziest time sometimes. lol.

This is the labradorite necklace I was talking about

Experimenting

This was the first pair I made which didn't turn out as expected because apparently I'm not good at following instructions. lol. There was a slight error which affected the stones. I will have to get back to this design again soon though.


The second pair turned out just right, with much smaller hoops of course. I used my hair vitamin bottle that I saw lying on the table. :) The design was supposed to be whacky with different coloured gems and different shapes. Unfortunately I didn't have much variety in terms of shape so most of it are rondelles. I just love the garnet nugget in the middle. Such great clarity.

Already in my Etsy store

One of a kind

A New Year

Another long overdue thing which needed to be said. Better late then never right? Lol. Just wanted to thank everyone out there who's been supporting me throughout 2011. It was a challenging year for me but it got better and better as the year ended. Hoping for a much productive 2012. To kick start the new year, I've decided to go with something colourful. This multicolour gemstone necklace was the first thing I made (my current favourite) followed by some pieces of moonstone and a pair of amethyst earrings.

I've also made some changes on some of the other old designs. And the rest are still in progress.
