Sudden burst of creativity..

I've been rather busy this evening! Possibly too busy, as all I've done is play with beads, but I'm thrilled with the things I've managed to create.

First up was a bracelet for my mother's birthday. She had asked for a memory-wire bangle in green so I created this:



Despite one half of the bracelet appearing darker than the other because the beads didn't line up as intended, I'm pretty pleased with it for a first attempt. Hopefully it'll be liked!
For anyone interested, I have the striated (stripy) beads in blues, red, pink, purple and black/grey, and leaves in pink and blue :)


I'm also extraordinarily pleased with these Hallowe'en-feel earrings:



In addition to these, I've photographed a couple of pieces I've made in the last few days. First up are a pair of circular earrings with silver beads and brown sequins. I'd originally just threaded the silver and brown onto a pin for, well, I don't really know why. It was only when I was fiddling with them absentmindedly that I bent them.. and realised I could finally use them. They remind me of pine-cones:



Second is a new favourite of mine (well, it's black and red, so it has to be!) A bracelet in red and silver with black accents:



Last but not least are a pair of amethyst and rose quartz earrings (two amethyst rounds - larger, darker at the top with the smaller, lighter in the middle - and then small quartz hearts at the bottom). Unfortunately no pictures as these really need daylight to do them justice..

Listing will commence shortly!
More photos in my Flickr photostream.

Edit: Circular and Halloween earrings now listed on etsy and added to the catalogue.
