The centre bead is a beautiful black Venetian bead with gold and blue decoration. I chose the rest of the beads to match this one and they range from lustred Picasso beads in a golden amber to black/gold cathedral beads, gorgeous turquoise Swarovski beads to vintage glass beads and Japanese Magatamas. |
Price: £23.00 |
The centre bead is a lovely green leaf, for the rest I've mixed different types of beads in greens, blues and golds. The effect is quite stunning and will work perfectly on pale winter skin. |
Price: £23.00 |
I've used all sorts of different beads in deep reds and purples with a few lighter mauve and lavender beads amongst the darker ones, and Magatamas in fuchsia and frosted lustred red to bring it all together. |
Price: £23.00 SOLD |
It's a delicious necklace made with real amethysts (chips and oval beads), faceted, twisted, and plain glass beads, a few vintage beads and seedbeads, my favourite Magatamas (in lilac in fuchsia AB coated), and as a centre piece a little pale lilac heart, all threaded onto black plated chain. |

A gorgeous set consisting of a necklace and earrings in deep reds and dark greens. Very Christmas-y colours and a lovely luxuious feel - like a Christmas pudding with brandy sauce. :-) |

A lovely set on black plated chain with beads in deep red and golden lustre, interspersed with a few topaz faceted beads. Lots of Swarovski beads and vintage beads to add a luxurious decadent feel. |

The necklace and earrings are made with three different types of copper chain: very fine, medium and a chunky curb chain. I've added a mix of vintage beads, glass beads - faceted and plain - rose quartz, garnet, dark red candy jade and coral jade chips, and jasper beads framed by copper bead caps and other findings. I love the soft rosy effect. The perfect necklace to enhance and brighten up pale winter skin. |

Pretty white and blue flowers with knotted links on a bronze chain. Earrings, necklace and bracelet. |
Price: £28.00 SOLD |
The curvy spacers came all the way from China and I've added large vintage jet and Aurora Borealis (AB) coated feature beads with oblong teal beads on either side and more vintage beads in purple and AB coated dark blue. Finally, I used a few new AB coated emerald and teal faceted beads. To add more interest and space the beads so the bracelet would have the exact length I required I used lovely teal silverlined seedbeads and a few tiny flower spacers. The bracelet is quite large and slips fairly easily over the hand. I am very pleased with the colour and the way it shimmers like a peacock's feathers. |
Price: £25.00 |
I have used very thin spacers with embossed flowers, Swarovski bicones in garnet, fuchsia and siam, three different shades of faceted Czech beads, dark red AB coated round beads, and beautiful oblong red vintage beads in three different shades of red. Interspersed are beautiful red AB coated delicas. I love the red lusciousness of the bracelet. It almost looks edible. :-) |
Price: £22.00 |
I've used modern silverplated findings: the plain toggle clasp and beautiful diamonte spacers, a few silverplated beads and crimps and the clamps at the ends. All is held together by silver tigertail. The vintage beads are faceted AB coated crystal ovals and AB coated smooth round crystal beads in an alternating pattern. I love the way they reflect the light differently and give the bracelet a lovely depth and sparkle. |
Pice: £25.00 |
This bracelet is made with lots of faceted, seed beads and Myuki cubes in harmonic shades of blue. When it was finished it reminded me of that rare Autums sky when the sky is a deep blue against the backdrop of the turning leaves. |
Price: £22.00 |

I've used spiral cages and encased small bits of sea glass in each. I've then added vintage beads (and a few modern seedbeads) which I enhanced by using silver plated bead caps and spacers, all strung from a silver plated thin chain. |
Price: £25.00 |
This set is made with many vintage (and a few new) beads. I wanted to recreate the lustre and shimmer of precious vintage jewellery. Although the design is quite simple it looks stunning when worn and would work perfectly for that Christmas party.... The earrings use the same beads as the necklace and bracelet and some very pretty and detailed chandelier hangers called "Floralie". |
