Rose of Sharon Jewelry

Nothing says fun like a handmade anklet. It’s hard to NOT feel pretty and flirty when wearing a crystals and charms around your ankle.

Adornable Anklets was launched this summer after a ROSJ Birthday Club Member asked if we would make her a blue crystal version. She got me thinking about how much I loved wearing them when I was a teen in the late 60s. So I made her anklet and one for me, too!

Pretty soon I was sorting through all my charms and crystal mixes making all sorts of themes and colors. We decided to create a stand-alone shop at Etsy to show off all the great designs – visit Adornable Anklets to find a charmer just right for you or for gift-giving!

Dawn picked one out on her way to school and wore it for 2 weeks without taking it off (even in the shower!). The blue/green crystals just seemed to go with everything!

Being right-handed, wearing my anklets on my right seemed a natural and makes my jagged scars (where I had pins inserted after breaking my anklet last year) look like a survivor’s badge. Ha!

In today’s Sharon Saturday post, I thought I’d remind you that anklets aren’t just for summer lovin! In the stylish 30s, anklets were worn over silk hose for a chic look. (I actually splurged once for a pair of real silk pantyhose and what a magnificent feel!)

Betty (Mom) has created several Breast Cancer Survivor themed anklets to share her story of hope and possibility. She’s been cancer free for over 20 years!

Here are a few fun favorites from the Adornable Anklets  line priced under $25.99!

 

 

The lovely puffed turquoise and silver butterfly was matched with lightweight turquoise enameled drops and sparkling silver beads – a true anklet stunner!

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you’re a romantic pink gal,  this anklet is perfect! The focal bead is a handcrafted lampwork bead in soft pink with little white glass dots! (Makes me think of those dotted dresses of the 50s.)

But I always have to “gild the lily” so I added Swarovski crystals, glass pearls and a silvery heart charm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tiny orange Mother-of-Pearl stars sparkle around your tanned ankle in this handmade anklet Mom created.

 

 

 

 

 

This Breast Cancer Awareness anklet is one of several Mom created to share her positive message. She’s been breast cancer free for over 20 years and knows what it feels like to face the challenge. These anklets are perfect to celebrate your journey, your triumph or to remember a loved one. 

 

 

Don’t forget to heart and bookmark the Adornable Anklet store at Etsy. I’ll be posting more designs this week!

Creating anklets has been great fun and lots of admiring shoppers at Adornable Anklets. Working hard to get then all posted so you can find your favorite!

This quick post is to show off some wonderful new choices you’ll find in this new Etsy store.

 

 

 

Adornable Anklets had it’s soft Grand Opening. Now we’re full swing ahead with photography and promotion. Here’s a lovely new anklet from the Etsy store collection.

Handmade Amethyst Anklet

The natural purple amethyst has been faceted to increase its sparkle. These hand wired dangles look great against all skin tones.

 

 

 

 

 

No two anklets alike! Great for the fun fashions of summer and beyond!

 

The  Rose of Sharon Jewelry artists believe no ankle should go unadorned this summer – introducing the  Adornable Anklets collection at Etsy We believe that anklets are the most joyous jewelry. When you  see a lovely sparkle around an ankle, a smile soon follows. When you think of a dressing for a casual summer day – think Adornable Anklets.

 

 

Welcome to our Grand Opening

Today we officially opened the Adornable Anklets store at Etsy. Just a few one-of-a-kind anklets are in the store now but lots more will be posted over the next several days. I just couldn’t wait to share these fun designs! All the new designs are very affordable because we think you should own several! You can wear a single one or double or even triple them up for a really dramatic effect. The Adornable Anklets are designed for durability. Most designs are created with a study silver-plated over steel chain and secured with a durable lobster claw clasp. The individual charms, drops and dangles are secured by wire-wrapping whenever the design allows. We love sparkle and think that anklets should have plenty! Because everyone must look down to see your adorned ankle – extra sparkle is a welcome feature. Our Adornable Anklets are filled with crystals and faceted beads to catch the light.

A Little Charm

Charms are a favorite of the gals of Rose of Sharon Jewelry so you’ll find charms of pewter, silver-plated and even sterling silver. Enameled charms are a real plus as they add a pop of color as they swing and sway.

Favorite Themes

Themes such as hearts, flowers, love and happiness will be well represented throughout the collection. We’d also love to hear about your favorite themes as we are working to create a comprehensive collection for the 2010 summer season. Just drop us a note via the Etsy convo message system and we’ll see what we can create for our valued customers.

Great Value, Extraordinary Fun

We have two price levels - $15.99 and $25.99 – for the current collection so no ankle need go unadorned! We also will be happy to create a special custom anklet just for you (or perhaps as a  gift). You’ll find  the info on how to request custom products in the Adornable Anklets store at Etsy.

In the Studio

Mom (Betty of Rose of Sharon Jewelry) arrives on Saturday so we’ll be busy creating more Adornable Anklets until she leaves at the end of the month! Good things happen when we get together!

An Anklet for Every Occasion

Anklets are perfect for a summer vacation wardrobe (how about a cruise themed anklet?) but how about a lovely pearl and Swarovski crystal anklet in your wedding colors? As the store shelves become virtually stocked, you’ll find anklets in lots of great colors! We’re having a ton of fun creating these and are confident you’ll have a great time wearing them!

Thanks Cynthia for asking about anklets! You inspired us to create this new collection! Hope you find a favorite or two.
