My Own Private Island






When I saw this pendant, I was immediately taken to the ocean on my own private island. I searched for beads to compliment my island and found a beautiful shade of amazonite that looks like pieces of the sea. I then created two silver PMC globes, made to look like little earths, to symbolize traveling the world. So come sail away and drink up the sun with your own island!

Materials used: agate, amazonite, pure (.999) silver, sterling silver. SOLD (with some customization)

Dark green and gold dichroic glass earrings




These beautiful earrings are made of dichroic glass with a copper gleam to them, fused on top of dark green glass that is sparkly (like glitter in the glass). The dark green looks almost black if you block the light from shining through (ie, if you have long hair). I ground a lip/ridge around the glass in which I wrapped gold-filled wire to attach the gold-filled french hooks and copper colored Swarovski crystals.
The earrings measure approximately 3 inches from the top of the french hook to the bottom of the crystal. $25 SOLD
