Audrey - SOLD

Audrey features Karin's polymer clay beads in lovely hues of peach and melon matched with faceted peach moonstones. I didn't quite get the true color of the moonstones, but it's definitely a pretty pair in reality, i would keep this pair if i wore earrings more often though. *wistful thoughts* This ladylike number measures approx 3.5cm excluding gold filled earhooks. All accents in 14K gold fill.

Surin - SOLD

Surin features diamond shaped cinnabar beads with the word 'xi' or happiness, with chinese knots in navy blue, purple and pink on gold plated hooks. This elegant beauty measures approx 9cm excluding ear hooks.

Nelly - SOLD

This piece reminds me of Nelly Furtado the singer, sultry, hot and sexy with the pinks and blacks. Synthetic pink opal ovals, wavy onyx oval, clay beads by Jacqueline and my last oval loop from Japan. This sultry number measures 8" and is closed by a vintaged tulip toggle closure.

80s Fun - SOLD

Yup colorful crazy retro 80s polymer clay beads handcrafted by Ginette, these fun loving babies will go dancing with you every night if you so wish. Topped with brass heart filigrees, 80s Fun is still a petite pair at 3cm excluding plated brass hooks.

Retail Price: SGD19/USD12.50

Blue blue skies - SOLD

Blue blue skies feature matte polymer clay beads in lovely varying shades of the sky for this morning. Bright and blue! Let's hope the sun stays for today, it'll be a nice change from the dark cloudy skies that greet me every morning! Anyway back to the earrings, this is a petite pair measuring just 2.5cm excluding the fancy 14k gold plated earhooks.

Lucia - SOLD

Lucia dangles 5mm swarovski cream pearls and little bronzed heart filigrees that make for a very adorable pair of earrings. Perfect if you're getting a gift, with all the hearts without being too cutesy. Lucia measures approx 6cm excluding plated earhooks.

Clarissa - SOLD

Faceted aqua glass briolettes that resemble london blue topaz topped with sparklers of Swarovski as opposed to diamonds. This piece shoes that you don't need expensive to look good, sometimes cheap can be just as pretty and no one will really know. ;P Clarissa measures approx. 2.5cm excluding 14K gold plated earhooks.

Trinity - SOLD

According to chinese beliefs especially Cantonese, 3 is a lucky number as it is associated with being 'alive'. In philosophy, many ideas were proposed with 3 dimensions or parts, from Plato, St Augustine, Darwin, Freud, Sternberg, Galton, and many others. So here's a set of 3 freshwater pearls which dangle off 14K gold plated rings on gold plated chains. Goldfilled wires are used as spacers. Earring and necklace set for a bridesmaid or the lady who simply loves pearls. The earrings measure 4.5cm excluding 14K gold plated earhooks, while gold plated chain is 17" long and closed by a 14K gold plated heart shaped lobster clasp. Chains will be swopped for 14K gold plated ones in the final product. Gold filled options are available at an additional price.

Saralle - SOLD

Saralle uses the pretty glass beads made by Sarah from Israel, vintage red glass bead, 14k gold plated hoops and chains with a swarovski chain intertwining the 14K gold plated chain. Closed with a high quality gold plated toggle, the bracelet measures 7.5". I love fire engine red, pity my camera couldn't quite capture the colors of the glass bead, so the picture by the original crafter (who's got an amazing photo setup) will have to tell the story instead.

The price may be on the higher side, but you're really paying for art on your wrist. I will not remake the bracelet in the same design using other beads from the bead set, so it'll definitely be totally unique for all owners of items using Glass by Sarah beads. She doesn't do remakes either, so if individuality is your middle name, this would be a piece you'd want to lay your hands upon.

Loralei - SOLD

Yeah Loralei is Gilmore Girls pretty i say. Pink opalite faceted glass teardrops hanging within gold plated frames on 14K gold plated earhooks. Loralei measures approximately 4.5cm without earhooks.

Mavelyn - SOLD

Mavelyn's a tad yellowed out in these pics. They were taken in the morning when the sun was turning orange and threatening to rain, well it did after that. Yellow polymer clay roses, yellow flat glass teardrops sandwiching a 14K gold plated chain link. Sweet lil' head turner. Mavelyn's a shoulder duster at approx. 5.5cm excluding gold plated ear hooks.

Natalya - SOLD

These little squares came in my recent batch of overseas orders, they're so pretty and adorable on their own! Ruby Quartz in 8mm and Cape Amethyst in 12mm, cute lil' squares of nature's love. Kept it really short and simple since the stones itself didn't need much embellishment. Measures approx. 3cm excluding 14K gold plated ear hooks.

Felicity - SOLD

The name Felicity and the properties of rose quartz are pretty similar in that they both mean happiness, love and peace. Rose quartz 5 petal flowers hanging off 14K gold plated hooks in front of gilded gold plated oval donuts. This elegant beauty measures approx 4cm excluding ear hooks.

Meredith - SOLD

Meredith features a sodalite donut that measures approx. 3cm wide with a white marigold cloisonne with a little butterfly flitting around the pretty blooms. 21" 14K gold plated chain ends with a gold plated toggle closure. One piece only, no remakes.

Taryn - SOLD

Black rhinestone studded ring atop an argentium silver wire wrapped cubic zirconia in onyx black. I haven't quite managed to capture the sparkle of the cubic zirconia and the rhinestones. Will have to fiddle with the camera more, to get better shots of them. Taryn measures approx. 4cm excluding rhodium plated earhooks.

Argentium Silver is a higher grade of sterling silver in that it contains more that 92.5% silver in its alloy, it is tarnish resistant as opposed to sterling silver, it stays brighter and shinier for long periods of time compared to sterling silver, does not develop firescale which would stain normal sterling silver during the heating process and it's stronger and more durable than sterling silver. But of course with it comes a price. It is about 15-18% pricier than sterling silver, but it really is a better material to work with when it comes to a set of jewelry that you want it to last.

Amanda - SOLD

Peach moonstone faceted diamonds and faceted chalcedony teardrops for Amanda. These are truly glorious beads to look at, I would suppose you can consider them A grade beads if not AA grade, at least the cost reflects its quality if it's any consolation to you and me. I've tried to match the teardrops to as similar as possible but there are still slight differences in size and color between the 2 teardrops, a characteristic of semi precious stones that we have to accept. ;P All accents are gold filled.

Lareina - SOLD

Lareina's a friend whom I got to know back in secondary school during OBS, whom I bumped into during yesterday's art clay silver class. It's really scary to know how long it has been since we first knew each other. It was almost 10years ago. Wow, mighty scary. Anyway wearing these refreshingly chic earrings won't add years to your age, thankfully. Carved onyx roses atop silver plated oval donuts that measures approx. 5.5cm excluding rhodium earhooks. Wire wrapping done in sterling silver.

Sunday Artwork

Lol, yep this is what i got myself into after the flea. All these are 999 silver. Ain't it cool. Hehe my first art clay silver pieces. Yes that's all 7 grams of art clay silver will yield. The pendant was a rush job since the ring was the focus product of the class. So if you don't file and sand your art clay silver pieces after drying and firing this is what it'll end up looking like, all bumpy and full of imperfections. But since it's my first, i'll live with the imperfections. Heh. So i'll finally be able to start making rings for you girls, after my practice first that is.

The flea was really crazy, was running up and down settling stuff, but of course with every event there are lessons to be learnt. Didn't manage to really have time to talk to some of you, hopefully that'll be better arranged in the next few events. Thanks to Mandy for coming down, bringing her cute dog and buying stuff from me. Yes Mandy from E.V.O.D and Crafted with Love. And all the regulars whose support we can't live without. Thanks once again!

Love,
Dawne
