So, this month I’ve been working on gems that sparkle. Everyone would like diamonds, but my Mum always did say I had champagne taste on beer money, so I’ve used cubic zirconia instead. These are very durable, flash with fire and sparks when they catch the light and are somewhat cheaper than the carbon crystals that take millions of years to form. These studs are 4mm (on the left) and 6mm in diameter and they’re set in sterling silver with butterfly backs. You can have your very own pair for just £10 or £12 respectively.
I’ve also got 2 pairs of dinky little sapphire studs – just 3mm diameter – they’re really lovely and if I’m not disciplined there will only be 1 pair for sale!! These are £14 a pair.
The last sparkly ones for this month (till I make some more) are pale blue topaz drops.
These are so pretty with the facets catching the light beautifully as they swing gently from their silver hooks. These are £10 a pair.
Earlier this year I came across some rather lovely mother of pearl roses. These have made drop earrings (£10), a little pendant (£10 with chain) and form a focal point to two pearl bracelets, one traditional cream, the other purple-grey (£15 each).
If you’d like any of these, just drop me an email – marmaladeemma@yahoo.com I’d be delighted to help.
