12-point Swarovski Crystal Earrings

I wanted to make a pair of gorgeous earrings to wear to a friend's wedding. These are larger than what I normally wear, but I was inspired by a pair of earrings I saw of another friend wear for a photo shoot (they were oval shaped instead of being round). The other aspect of the earrings are is that they have a lighter colour scheme if worn in reverse (will need to take a photo of this at some stage!) The larger of the 2 circles are the same as my 12-point pendant, the smaller circles are a 9-point "star".

Goldstone and swarovski pearl bracelet

This bracelet was made to match the "surprise me" earrings my friend so loved. The little gold flecks on the goldstone beads are a perfect match for the mustard swarovski pearls.

Sterling silver stardust and crystal necklace

I was working on a sterling silver stardust series when I decided to make a slightly modified version, incorporating clear AB swarovski crystals. This became a gift for my sister, which she loved, as did her daughters (who wanted to wear it too!)

Silver Stardust Earrings

Sterling silver stardust earrings to match a few other pieces in this "sterling silver stardust" series. Made by linking 5mm and 3mm white pearls insterspersed with sterling silver stardust beads - pretty!

Silver Stardust Bracelet

Made this stunning bracelet from 5mm and 3mm round white pearls interspersed with lots of sparkly sterling silver stardust beads - gorgeous! Glad my fave customer loved it too :)
