Mum to be....

Used my new cricut explore to make this silhouette mum to be card.

First attempt at pearl knotting...

This was my first attempt at pearl knotting. Found it difficult to get thread to fit through twice so used a thin thread and had to double knot. Was quite happy with result. Will try and get better thread if I do this again.

Gemstone necklaces....

Here are a couple of necklaces I made recently. A multi gemstone necklace where I used clear quartz,  sky blue appatite,  carnelian,  aquamarine,  malachite,  peridot, labradorite and amethyst.
The other I used a lovely strand of Sapphires.

This is a sample set of jewellery I made for a jewellery making fundraiser I held for staff at my school. Their finished pieces were all different as I had a large selection of gemstones.
