Rainbow Moonies

New batch of rainbow moonstones arrived a few days back. Thought I'd share some pictures here. Hit me up for a custom order if you're interested in owning one. ;)

Arrowhead/Triangle shape and more 3D teardrop moonies

A couple of earrings are already up on my Etsy store. Still working on some necklaces.

Just realized there has been quite a bit of yellow lately. Some of the newbies already in store. New pair of sterling silver earrings with 22K gold vermeil and the stones are garnet. I just love the matte finished of this earring post.

Hoping to make more bracelets in the near future. But for now, there's two in store. One moonstone and the other is the very rare spectrolite.

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

Coffin Love

So lately I've been obsessing with coffins again and here are some interesting finds on Etsy. Oh and I meant rings. hehe. I definitely have the dopest GEMSTONE coffin ring. Nobody makes it better than Idle Hands Designs.

I absolutely love gemstones so Idle Hands is of course number one in my books. However there are some really cool sterling silver only coffin rings I came across on Etsy. The first one by Jewels Vine really blew me away. I'll show you why.

Yep it opens up exactly like a real coffin and all. How brilliant is that??


And skeleton as the band! Can't get any better than that. :)

The first thing that came to mind was "Omg! Creepy!" Lol. Just look at the expression. Yikees! :) But I absolutely love it. So unique and the detail on the ring looks great. Oh and I forgot to mention the amazing seller. It's by Wicked Metalz.

Besides this wonderfully unique and creepy ring, they have other equally amazing rings as well so do check them out. My other favourites are the wolf ring (Lobo The Mad Wolf), dragon ring (Ancalagon The Black), wings with a tire ring (Wings Of Freedom) and Grim Reaper ring. They have quite a lot of cool skull pieces as well. Oh and did I mention their rings are reasonably priced as well? ;)

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.
