Three Genies


In classic color schemes, "I Dream of Jeannie" style.


Tracing back to my last year's design, adding pops of gold and champagne, these three genie bottles are perfect accessories for any LBD:-)


Or, how about a black, silver, and gold combination?  With a 30-inch long, stainless steel curb chain, these necklace slide on/off effortlessly, no clasp, no fuss!


Thank you for visiting!  More views available on my Google Photos album.  Hope to see you there too!

Helm Fuchsia Chainmaille Earrings


I'm often asked, "How long does it take you to make this?"
Well, how long is a piece of string? :-)

Sometimes, it's that long!


I started this helm half sphere design way back when, and the pair was for all intend and purpose done.  I even did a few rounds of usability test, and they passed with flying colors (pun intended:-)!  But in my mind, it seems to be lacking that final touch.... until I switched out the tassels with these stainless steel curb chain with diamond cuts.


Now, they're done!  Ready for their close-ups!


A total of 3 inches long, 3/4 inch wide, with mostly anodized aluminum rings, on surgical steel ear wires.  Totally vivacious!!


Available for special order via my online studio DaisyKreates.com.  Hope you'll come by for a visit!

Purrrrrrrple PawPrints Bracelet

Purrrrrrple and sooooo purrrrty:-)


(that sounds like a sticky keyboard, LOL!!)


What do paw prints and Borg have in common? (quick!)



It is futile to resist them!  Oh, I crack myself up!  XD!!!


Same design as its little big brother, this PawPrints bracelet is all purple and very light weight.


The anodized aluminum rings keep the bracelet light as feathers (almost), while the stainless steel connector rings provide strength.


At 1" wide, 7 1/2" long, this cutie is easy on the wrist, thanks to the subtle toggle bar latching into the last paw print units on the other end of the bracelet, making it nearly seamless and very comfortable to wear.


This lovely bracelet is now available for purchase at my online studio DaisyKreates.com.  Hope to see you there.

Petite Tea Roses Earrings

Here are a couple of tea roses to adorn your ear lopes:-)


These cuties are such a delight way to brighten any outfit!


Vividly colored, feather weight, no maintenance required. My Petite Tea Roses earrings are full of movement, without long danglies or fringes.


I created these earrings using the classic chainmaille mobius weave, but with a unique spin on ring size selection to transform the typical circular shape into a stylized rose with multi-color petals. Thanks to the flexible nature of chainmaille, each ring of the "roses" can shift and overlap one another so lively, they are not only fun to wear, but a joy to hold as well.


Measuring at 1/2 inch wide, and 1 1/2 inches long, these earrings are made with anodized and bright aluminum rings that will not tarnish over time. The ear wires are silver plated surgical steel.


I had so much fun making and wearing these earrings, I think I'll make a few more of them, in different color mixes, maybe a pendant to go with it, or a necklace of tea roses in full bloom, yeah!!!

These tea roses earrings are now available for purchase in my online studio.  Hope to see you there!

Come by my Picasa web album for complete view of my petite tea roses in red mixes.

OOoooOOOoooOOOoooOOOoooOO

Blue Daisies Earrings with Color Coordinated Niobium Ear Wires


These blue daisies are not only bright and cheery, they are on a pair of handcrafted niobium ear wires of matching colors!


I made the pair of ear wires out of natural niobium wire, with added scrolls at front for some extra flair, shortened tail ends at the back for comfort wear, and then anodized the pair in two of the high voltage colors in the reflective spectrum: hot pink and teal blue, making them perfect for the big purple rings and the teal blue daisy beads.


These earrings are light weight, great for everyday wear; thanks to the niobium ear wires, they are hypoallergenic and will not irritate even the most sensitive ear lopes:-)


The Blue Daisies earrings measure at 2 1/2 inches long, 1/2 inch wide, weighs at a mere 0.1 oz.


Haven't tried niobium yet?  Wondering what it is?  Here's a little intro to this semi-precious metal.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ About Niobium ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Niobium is a natural material, element number 41 on the periodic table. The color of unanodized niobium is a warm, dark gray. When anodized, a layer of skin forms on the metal surface and reflects colors of the spectrum depending on the thickness of the layer.

Natural niobium requires no maintenance, will not change state or tarnish in our natural environment, hypoallergenic even for those with most skin sensitivity. It has been my favorite metal to use in handmade jewelry.



This item is available for custom order in my ArtFire studio.  Customizations welcome.
