here's some of my new work.  a spring inspired garden necklace,
some earrings, button charm bracelet, and amber teardrop
necklace. 







it was three strands but i didnt like the way it looked so i braided
them.  it's full of beads.  some of the beads: lemons, limes,
grapes, butterfly wings, butterflies, swirl beads, ladybugs, pears,
enamel flower beads, blue "water" drops, various other glass beads in
springy colors and some that resemble grapes, oranges, apples. 
hard to see the detail in the photos.











a little late for valentines :)  red wire, glass beads, metal heart bead.







half moon earrings.  vintage acrylic beads and glass beads, chain, wire







amber teardrop beads, brown seed beads, glass pearl effect beads and
glass beads, bronze color toggle.  the really seem to glow in the
photo, it looks different in person.







this was a fun project.  i got the tin of grandma's old buttons
and used jump rings to attach them to a chain.  the pic doesn't
really show how cool some of these buttons are.
