I have enjoyed jumping into this new year. Although my blog has been somewhat neglected, I have been having fun with the family, and of course with my favorite hobby, making beaded jewelry. Even though the 3 Little C's keep me hoppin', the C Family has been very supportive of my artistic endeavors. I have also sold some pieces lately, which has been an added bonus! There was a certain necklace that I made a while back that was one of my favorites, and I got a lot of positive feedback on it. It was a Swarovski starfish necklace that was recently purchased by Mina, one of my mom friends from preschool. (Thanks, Mina, for all your purchases!) You can see that particular piece here. (Lost the original photo file when my hard drive crashed.)

So now I present you with two new Swarovksi starfish necklaces.
"Aquamarine Dreams" and "Golden Sunrise"

Ok I realize that it may seem corny to name the necklaces but people do it all the time on Etsy. Besides, maybe it will add some mystique and appeal for a possible buyer, right? Who knows.

Aquamarine Dreams is made from a 16mm Swarovski starfish pendant, wire wrapped with sterling silver wire. The beads are sea "opal" glass, sterling silver spacers, czech glass coin beads, and 4mm Swarovski crystals. It is finished off with a sterling silver clasp. I will list this for $25.
Golden Sunrise is made from a 16 mm Swarovski crystal starfish with an aurora borealis finish, wire wrapped with gold-filled wire. The white and golden beads are czech glass and brass. The clasp is a gold-plated toggle. This one will be offered at $20.
I will soon have them listed on Etsy. Or give me a call or shoot me an e-mail if you are interested!

I love the aquamarine color. So cool to look at. Glad you're back creating again. I need a push. I'm kinda in the dark pit of laziness right now. :)

I love your work. My dad is very ill right now, but when we get him settled I would like to order something.

This such a cute post. You totally inspire me to want to get back to creating my own art and open my own etsy shop :-)
