Sakura - SOLD

A dainty black quartz teardrop dangling off the black cloisonne ring with pretty cherry blossoms that marks the arrival of spring. Right timing for these pretty blooms. Cherry blossoms are a symbol of ephemeral beauty in Japan. Hopefully this serves as a reminder to us all that beauty does not last and like life, transient, and to cherish what we have now rather than til it's gone.

Lavinia

A gold twist frame encases the pretty pearls that a classmate of mine, AT, gave to me. I've used french hooks to hold up these elegant beauties. Simply stunning and very pretty for evening wear.

Gina - SOLD

Gina's beauty lies in the japanese glass bead that is similar to Renetta's. I simply love the details of the beads with it's white streaks and varying red hues. This time it's capped with gold bicone swarovski crystals with a creamrose swarovski pearl. The pearl looks a little mauve in the picture but it's really more brownish (a leeeeeeeeetle bit). I can't find the right colour to describe the actual colour.

Johanna - SOLD

Think Johanna looks and sounds familiar? That's because you've seen her from before. Only thing is she's gone for a makeover and looks more demure now. Baby blue czech glass beads, pretty bloom on the tensha bead with turquoise and rose alabaster swarovski crystals adorning the dainty feet of Johanna.

Beatrice - SOLD

Beatrice looks regal in the deep royal blue tone and I have to admit I've fallen in love with blue once again. You know how when you were young, everybody's favourite colour was blue so was yours. A very simple creation, I've allowed the cloisonne beads to steal your breath while the lapis lazuli bead sits on top quietly, like a demure princess waiting for her prince charming to come. Princess Beatrice won't settle for anything less.

Celeste - SOLD

Celeste uses czech faceted white glass beads interspersed with pink glass donuts and capped with milky white rice beads. All beads strung on rhodium 2.5cm diameter hoop. Simple and pretty hoops which would definitely brighten up your outfit simply by smiling daintily on your ears.

Violet - SOLD

Violet uses clay roses and different coloured crystals hanging off a single 14K gold plated chain. Very spring fresh and sweet. As the weather turns drier, the roses bloom into beauties for the new year ahead. Cousin of Rozene, gold hoop can be added.

Candice

Wooden hoops with glitter encircling three different coloured pearls. The cream coloured potato pearl is obscured by the burgundy and bronze pearls. Didn't have another chance to take another photo as I've already gifted this to a relative for Christmas. Hopefully she likes it. In fact I was so forgetful that I can't even remember the name of the earring, since Candice is the first name that popped into my mind, Candice it is.

Happy New Year

May the New Year usher in peace and the hope of new beginnings! We've just placed on order for beautiful Kamoe-Clay beads from Karin in Germany. Beautiful beginnings for beautiful days ahead! The FAQ section is finally up and if you'd like any features, just drop me a mail and I'll see what I can do. Back to making earrings.

Love,
Dawne

Cherry Blossoms - SOLD

A sweet pink number from top to toe. The ceramic beads with handpainted cherry blossoms is capped by swarovski crystals of varying hues and opacity/translucency, while a pink clay bead with little pink, white lined squares prettifying the bead. Although it may seem a tad too pinkish, it's not just for the demure girl, but also the girl who likes mixing old and new, and a different touch to the cloyingly sweet pink beads.

Perla - SOLD

Perla is the spanish word for pearls, I know it seems like I don't have much creativity in naming my earrings, so please pardon me. These are swarovski pearls which have been made to imitate real pearls. Ultimately they are still crystals beneath, but they are able to imitate how real pearls adapt to skin warmth therefore the premium as compared to normal glass pearl beads. Hanging on different lenths of 14k gold plated chain are light creamrose and bronze coloured pearls, with a drop of 4cm excluding ear hooks.

Renee - SOLD

Renee is definitely simple but stunning, my favourite favourite piece. Ok I like simple designs so shoot me. Heh. Gold hoops (3.5cm across) with turqoise chips. Funky, elegant, classy. I've made one for myself but there are still 2 more pairs available.

Jamie - SOLD

Pressed glass beads and gold acrylic beads were combined to exude elegance and sass. Attention grabbing piece at work or at play. Gold discs are 2.5cm in diameter and the drop excluding earhooks is 4cm.

Vienna - SOLD

Vienna would not lose its lustre in a black and white movie, with the shine of the quartz briolette and elegance of the filligree capped howlite beads. Interestingly howlite is used to to calm and reduce tension. It's also purported to aid creativity. Maybe we should get the government to give a howlite stone to each household to become more creative and think out of the box. Entire drop is 3cm excluding 925 silver ear hooks.

Ariel - SOLD

Rich burgundy glass disc (2cm across) topped with a faux pearl with a pretty shiny sandstone dangling off it. Sandstones are essentially quartz and are rather hardy materials. In fact they're even used in buildings! The Taj Mahal was originally constructed with red sandstone, so this quartz has gone places! Entire drop excluding ear hooks is 4cm.

Opulence

I guess these necklace designs are rather in vogue lately so I've customized these necklaces for my aunt who will gift them to her nieces. An angel charm was used but it doesn't seem to show up very well in this picture. A black quartz briolette and 2 swarovski crystals in different sizes top off to make this suitable for someone who's young and modern without looking too 'old'. You know how some designs look really classic and as a result ages you. We don't really want that for an 18 yo girl do we.

Girlish Secrets

Girlish Secrets comes with lock and key charms, cloisonne butterfly and a glass bead with a 3.5cm gold ring to top off this sweet creation. Necklace is 9" with a lobster clasp to lock everything together. It's customized for a sweet 14 yo girl. Hopefully she likes this necklace and if you're the recipient drop a comment to say hi or something. =)

Radiance - SOLD

Radiance was a naughty girl who refused to look pretty against a white background so she was shot against a bright red postcard which incidentally was a brochure for the Arts Festival in Y2K. I couldn't resist the design of the postcard that i decided not to crop it out of the picture. Rose quartz butterflies are carved with faux pearls dangling off it. Chain and parts 925 silver.

Pink of Health *Updated version

Pink of Health is a deviation from the names that I usually use to name my creations, but the blushing pink of the carved cherry quartz butterflies made the word pink flashed so many times in my mind that I decided to name it as so. Especially since the aventurine cones are supposed to aid sleep, lack of sleep will lead to ill health so there you go. Was supposed to just pick up some beads to remake something for a classmate but I ended up buying lots of beads! All parts are brass, and nickel-free (good news for peeps with sensitive ears).

**I've updated the design to include a peridot jasper because I just noticed that if you looked at the earrings from far the carved butterfly doesn't seem to show much of it's transclucency and looked rather opaque and orange. So from far the entire earrings just looks like a single colour - orange. But you're still welcome to purchase either one, or as is displayed in the picture. The peridot jasper is capped with brass filligree. The drop for the updated version is 5cm/2inches excluding the earhooks and the original is 4cm/approx. 1.5inches.
