I used the title of my latest piece for this post - today the sun was shining and guess what we actually felt some warmth - mind you, you had to be out of the wind, now that was cold! In fact the children all came out of school asking for their coats off - how funny as soon as the sun shines they want to strip off - really it wasn't that warm!! Maybe being in Cornwall and the South of the UK we feel the warmth sooner, of course sun rises and sets earlier and later then say Scotland but then again we can grow palm trees and other plants that anyone further up (For us Cornish anything over the Tamar {River seperating Cornwall and Devon} is "Up Norf"!! :0D
Now a little about the jewellery - the first bracelet is made from tiny (4 - 5 mm) rounds of primarily, Rose Quartz, Amethyst, Peridot and Aquamarine, with my little 'Kisses' in and amongst the gemstones. It took me quite a few {understatement} to finish her but I'm so happy with the finish look. The second bracelet with Isabelle Andersons beautiful beads and micro faceted rounds of Smokey Quartz with Bali silver.
Enjoy!

Now I bet you can't guess why I named this one Summer rain?? Lol I'm trying to be subtle here!!! If you look closely you will see rose quartz, peridot and grey moonstone nestling amongst the crystal quartz - oh and silver nobbles tooo!!
SOLD
and finally I made some earrings ( Caroline if you are reading this I am waiting for earwires for yours!!) These are named Zebirget as Peridot has been found in Egyptian Jewellery from the early second millennium BC and was mined from the Volcanic island of Zebirget or St. Johns Island, in the Red Sea. So a great name I thought :D
Right I'm off to pretty myself up ready for the hairdressers - can't go to the big Smoke with yukky hair now can I ???
