So what jewellery does a jewellery maker wear?......

 And the answer was this combination today.  Here are two necklaces that I've kept and today I wore them together, as I think the colours really work well together.
 What clothes was I wearing you may be wondering?  A simple navy vest and dark jeans.
I have small blue apatite earrings to match the necklace, I wear simple earrings more often then not =)

Little pond turtle necklace......

I still need to get better picture's of this necklace, but I thought I'd let you have a peek at it =)
This lovely pond turtle is made of fine silver and is fair trade, isn't it cute!  The beads you can see are mostly are gorgeous blue Kyanite, these stones are just beautiful!  Once I've got some better picture's you'll be able to see the lampwork beads that are very similar in colour to the Kyanite, they add to the whole aquatic nature of the necklace =)

It's the beginning of berry season!.......

As you will know by now if your not new to my blog, I love making treasuries when I have the time.  I kind of had the idea of home made berry smoothies in mind when thinking about the colours for this one.  I enjoyed looking through my British Emporia team mates shops for most of these lovelies.  I hope you like this collection as much as I do =)


Enjoy!

Treasury of the day.....



Well I got a chance to make this treasury for my British Emporia team mates, so thought I'd share the love and post it up for your viewing/ shopping pleasure =)  The treasury's theme and colour palette was inspired by Lizze's Beautiful Art's original Blue Moon Painting and the idea of a midnight ball.  The bright day time turquoises and blues associated with summer are here in their night time forms =)

Add a touch of colour....

 Here is my Super Duper collection of colourful children's finds on Etsy!  I just love them and beautifully original, what more can I say, go and explore these shops for yourself and I'm sure you'll find something to make you smile =)

I made this treasury for my British Emporia team members with the inclusion of some other talented Etsyians and the title says it all.  I just love these colours don't you and the beautiful items my fellow team mates have made and found (vintage).
