My friend Jen approached me to make the jewelry for a wedding she was going to be in. She was wearing an emerald green dress, and wanted earrings, a bracelet and necklace to match. Here's what I came up with.

These are all Swarovski crystals, I love the way they sparkle.

Because the dress was a rich green, Jen wanted to keep the necklace simple, so I used less green in it, and kept the bead sizes small.

I added more green in for the bracelet and earrings.

Blue Topaz Earrings

I made these earrings for a friend's wedding. It's sterling silver wire with beautiful blue topaz stones. The blue goes with the bridesmaids' dresses, can be the "something blue" and also are the bride's birthstone. I love the simple design of these earrings.

Garnet Necklace and Earrings Set

This is a necklace and earring set that I made for a friend. They feature garnets and Swarovski Siam crystals. They both are made with sterling silver components. What I like most about the necklace (besides all the beautiful sparkling beads!) is the fact that the toggle clasp is at the front, incorporated as part of the necklace.

The earrings that are with this are really small and simple.

Originally I had paired the necklace with these earrings, but my friend found them to be a bit too heavy for her - not hard to imagine with all those garnets! They're now up on my Etsy page.
