I've had a few special orders that I've made lately, and I'm so proud of them, I'm going to share!
For myself, I made this lovely necklace of Swarovski crystal, seed beads, and a hematite heart pendant:
For my bestest of bestest friends for her birthday (tomorrow!!), the matching bracelet isn't ready yet, but will be soon. This is all Swarovski crystal, even the butterflies, with silver lined seed beads inbetween the beads:
For my mom's best friend from high school, this is garnet and quartz with sterling silver findings:
For a woman in GR who fed me nummies at the craft fair, a silver watch with Ocean Jasper on stretch magic:
For my mom's friend's daughter's Christmas present, a necklace and earrings set of Sapphire nuggets, Opalite carved flowers and sterling silver spacers and findings:
and these were just picked up a whopping 3 minutes ago (yay monies!), silver seed bead bracelets for medic alert tags:
Here's hoping I can really make a go of this. The bracelets brought in $8, the sapphire and opalite brought in $80, the watch should bring in $15, the garnet set brought in $30, the butterflies would bring in $60 if I sold it instead of gave it as a present, and the hematite heart necklace would bring in about $25-30 if I sold it instead of making it for myself.
Anyway, I need to head out and get the crystal to finish the bracelet and send out packages to a few of the people I love.
