summer beach necklace

This necklace was made to wear in the summer sun.  Like the beach for example.  The colors just remind me of a beach sunset and the ocean water.  The stones you see on the pendant are turqoise stone.  You can find most of my items for sale at http://www.etsy.com/   Just type in bellasbaubles in the search engine on the site.

Vintage Nun

As you can tell I love, vintage looking things. Hence this piece!!!! This is the second soldering piece I have made. "The Grotto Gift Shop" purchased this one from me as well. The nun in the pendant is simply gorgeous!!!
I took a million and one pictures of this necklace and could not come up with one that did it justice...but you get the idea ; )

This is another Christian inspired piece I have made for "The Grotto Gift Shop"(www.thegrotto.org)
Baby Jesus and Mary is on one side of the pendant and on the other (which you cannot see) is pink roses that match the pink quartz crystal bead.

I'm a sucker for the color pink and polka dots. Pair the two together and I'm in heaven!!!! And while you're at it throw a bit of bling in there!!!!!!
This piece you can pin to your jacket, shirt, skirt, purse....anywhere you want to add something chic to!!! HOORAY for pink and polka dots!!!!! : )

Blessed Elegance

One of my purchasers is "The Grotto Gift Shop" this is a wonderful place located in Portland, Oregon. They request pieces from me that are Christian based.
This is one of the pieces they have purchased from me.

Winter Angel

Sooooo my dear friend Melissa Jones (check out: www.thecutestthing.blogspot.com AND www.thecutestthing.etsy.com for LITERALLY the cutest things you have seen! : ) had taught me how to solder. And this is one of my first pieces. It is vintage inspired. I love this vintage angel child reading a book. Of course, since I love the Lord, I had to put a cross and a heart. I thought this piece had a perfect winter color scheme!!!!

Blessed Purple!!!!

This charm bracelet has a lot of meaning to me. First(and most importantly) it has Mary and baby Jesus in the pendent and then the colors were inspired to me by my girlfriend Cindy Hansill (love ya girl!) We both LOVE the color purple. And what better than to have many, MANY shades of it! How could a girl go wrong when you have purple in your wardrobe. This custom piece is made with swarovski crystals, mother of pearl and amethyst. It sooo for the girl who loves a bit of flare!!!
I ABSOLUTELY love the autumn season!!!! Which is what this bracelet was inspired by. I love the rustic color and the cool crisp air the season gives. Summer is fabulous, don't get me wrong, but its always nice to have a change, a new season. Its just like our lives....always giving us new seasons. I think its How you embrace the current season your in that determines the next.
