The rich green Malachite beads in this memory wire bracelet creates a cuff look but it’s much more comfortable to wear. Dawn made this from Betty’s stash!

Looking for dark colored jewelry? You’ve find it at ROSJ! Sandra Lee often uses natural stones  in smoky grey, rich burgundy and deep forest green. For everyone who loves the contrast of a dark necklace, why not try one of these traditional designs?

Willow Brook by Sandra Lee combines deep green Jade and yellow turquoise (the name doesn’t reflect the actual greenish yellow mottled color of these unique beads).

The large green Jade briolette pendant is a great focal for this one-of-a-kind necklace.

 

 

 

 

 

 

What  would a Sandra Lee creation be without matching earrings and bracelets. These 3-piece sets are a great value as you can mix or match the pieces for a traditional coordinated look or wear separately as is in fashion now!

Willow Brook would make a great gift for a Mother or Grandmother who loves to look stylish in darker tones.

 

 

Autumn Blush isn’t just for fall dressing. The rich natural carnelian beads are a mixture of brown, sienna, orange and cream. The large wavy beads are quite dramatic.

Again Sandra Lee wanted you to be very well accessorized so she created a bold bracelet featuring the oversized natural carnelian beads. To balance out the jewelry set, she chose to make a pair of delicate dangling earrings.

Sterling silver chain and clasps add a rich feel.

 

 

 

Dress for Success is the perfect name for this one-of-a-kind 3-piece necklace set. Sandra Lee has such a classic take on these designs that you can never go wrong. They have a bit of drama but aren’t overdone for everyday wear.

This necklace contrasts the beauty of blue Amazonite with a deeper grey/blue mottled agate. 

 

 

 

These little pictures don’t do this justice – you must click over to the main Rose of Sharon Jewelry store and see the enlarged photos to really under stand the beauty of Dress for Success.

A heart of glass usually isn’t a good thing, except when the hearts are adorable pink lampwork beads. My new Forever in My Heart  bracelet combines romantic pretty pink lampwork bead hearts with sparkling sterling silver.  Forever in My Heart is one of the many newly released handmade bracelets in the A.F.F. Jewelry line at Etsy.

Forever in My Heart is a wonderfully romantic one-of-a-kind bracelet. The perfect gift or a special treat for yourself?

 

The sterling silver chain is a linked heart design.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The pink hearts of these handmade artisan lampwork beads are adorned with tiny dots. I added additional small white glass beads as an accent.

            The finishing touch to this 7 inch bracelet is a heart shaped sterling silver toggle clasp.      

Forever in My Heart was created by Sharon of Rose of Sharon Jewelry.

Not only do I love this wonderful handmade quilted hobo bag in purples – I also love its creator, Olivia. Liv is a wildly creative gal with a fabulous eye for color. This medium sized hobo bag artistically combines 9 different complementary purple-toned fabrics.

 

Olivia makes jewelry (she’s a Rose of Sharon Jewelry family artist), quilts, purses, bags, scarves, mufflers and more. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Her hobo bag (and a matching wristlet) is beautifully constructed. It measures 12.5” by 8.5” and uses an off-white lining.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Designed for a comfy fit under your arm, the coordinating handle is a sturdy 21.5”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you love purple, you’ll want to click right over to her Etsy shop, Beyond the Rabbit Hole, and snap it up! Don’t forget to heart her shop, too!

Olivia has just opened a Facebook fan page for  Beyond the Rabbit Hole. She could use some new friends who love handmade!

A wonderful handmade soap is an affordable luxury. This olive oil and shea butter soap is a sensual treat for a rose lover like me. Created by Ayelet and sold through her Etsy shop – Ayelet Artisan Bath and Body Products. these handmade soaps caught my eye today when checking my Flickr account.

This soap isn’t currently featured in her Etsy shop but she has other wonderful natural bath products along with lotions, lip balms, facial creams and vegan deodorants. 

My skin is sensitive to many chemicals so handmade is my #1 choice and it should be yours if you are interested in living a more natural life!

Stop by Ayelet’s lovely little Etsy shop and treat yourself to something nice today.

Beautiful blue freshwater pearl "eggs" adorn sterling silver bird's nest earrings in today's great jewelry find.

Out of the Pink Sky sells her handcrafted jewelry on Etsy. Stop by and give her a heart!

Finishing our prep for Saturday's booth/show at the Reno Scion promotional event so I haven't had time to write too much. Mom and Sarah are visiting, too so we've been working together to create several new wedding necklaces and learn some new techniques.

Originally uploaded by yifatiii These adorable handmade miniatures of rich, calorie-laden desserts are polymer clay so you have eye-candy with zero calories. While created for a dollhouse display, these would be so much fun as little thank you gifts.

Yifatiii's Sweets & Treats creates these tiny collectibles along with magnets and the sweetest sewing pin toppers.

You can admire and purchase Yifat's miniatures on Etsy. Other photos are on Flickr - click the picture to view more.

I love sharing the art jewelry I find online with my readers. Today I found handmade metal jewelry by Nathalie Girard, Metalsmith on Etsy. Her shop Canadian Rockies Art has some wonderful oxidized silver earrings. Her designs are modern without being too far out for those of us who love classic designs. Stop by and see her great work.

Mea culpa - I copied a photo from her Etsy store so you could drool over her work, too.
