BTW did a set with earrings too

As with the earlier post of aventurine necklace, i actually did the earrings first. The original design was from a craft book i saw once, that had 3 drops per earring, but that was waaaay to much. Plus it would be too heavy to be comfortable for long wear.

Aventurine necklace - copper






Didn't know what the results would be like, until the final product was finished. I'm quite pleased with it, the warm copper color and apple green aventurine was a great combination. I used peach colored fresh water pearls, swarovksi crystals and amethyst to add a slight hint of contrast.

(photos look horrible, need help)

Lampwork focal beads

Couldn't figure out what to do with 'em, finally made pretty simple ones with metal charms dangling at the end of the focal bead. Just to have the focus on the lovely lampworked bead, I used a simple chain to complete the necklace.

Will be available at offline Blogshop by next week :)
