Fab designers out there

It has been a long summer, the kids have finally gone back to school, the twins have started full time, I have stopped doing my happy jig, and am getting down to making some jewellery, but I have to say the brain cells have all turned to mush, so it all started with the weekend when i met a lovely bunch of ladies from West Country Jewellery Makers and the wonderful Mark Smith from the TV  channel Jewellery Maker there were demos one of which was by the lovely Laura Binding http://youniqueyou.com/ who is a wizz with wire which those who follow me know i love wire, so she showed some new ideas and these are my makes from her ideas.

 
Then I bought a pattern from a designer Emily Gray, http://www.etsy.com/shop/emilygrayjewels I love her designs and thought i would have a go at making my own following her pattern, and this is what i came up with, need a lot more practise, i used all swarovski pearls and crystals but i was pleased with what i came up with.
 
There are some very talented people out there and i enjoy looking at their work and being taught by them, and i hope you enjoy seeing it too thanks for looking.

Dragonfly wire necklace

I have been having a blast playing with wire and trying to improve my skills, I have found a great lady called Linda Jones who I follow in Facebook she has also made videos on bead.tv and I have seen a lovely dragonfly made out of wire so I decided to have a try and this is what I came up with I decided to make it into a necklace not the hair clip that Linda uses. Well I hope you like it, as always if you fancy it leave me a message and I will contact you. Thanks for looking.

Merry Christmas

Christmas is well and truly upon us, and if you are like me there still seems to be so much to do before the big day, but one thing that has been done is the decorating of the tree thanks to the kids i came home and found that it had been done so i was chuffed to learn how to make these cute wire and crystal angels that add touch of glamour to any tree or you can have them sitting on a shelf,  I have made lots in different colours, if you have a colour scheme that you would like an angel done in then please shout and i will see what i can do, Well all that's left is for me to say Merry Christmas and i hope you all have a lovely time and i will see you in the new year.

The world of Tiara's

Welcome to my blog, as you will have noticed it has a new name, i thought it was more appropriate if trying to show case jewellery to have a new name so here it is, hope you like it.

Now Tiara's seem to be the accessory of the moment so i thought i would show you a few styles that have been made over the last few weeks by myself and my friends, i hope you like the styles and colours, prices start from £20-35 and again if you would like details then please e-mail me.

Thanks for looking and i hope you liked what you see

Midnight sparkle bracelet and rainbow sparkle earrings

Well its getting close to that time of year when people are after that special something to give as presents and two perfect items i think are here.
 First we have the Midnight sparkle tila bracelet, this is perfect for that little black dress it shimmers in the light thanks to the 4mm swarovski crystals down each side it was lovely to make and i am seriously considering making one for myself but i don't have a little black dress to wear it with, but i am sure it will look just as good with jeans.

Next is the lovely rainbow sparkle which is named for obvious reasons that it has the most beautiful colours in swarovski crystals it also has silver seed beads spiralling around peacock blue seed beads, then finished with silver plated ear wires.

These are two really nice pieces and i hope you like them, if you feel like you would like to own either of them then please take a look at www.folksy.com/shops/asjjewellery

Thank you for taking the time to look at my blog
