Graduation Jewellery

I got a custom order from my 13 year old niece Juliana, earrings for her graduation.
Sometimes it's hard to find the one exactly what you want at store.
She was looking for the earrings to match with her reddish orange dress. She didn't see the one then she remembered her auntie = me makes jewellery.
It's my pleasure to make the one for her special moment.
I picked the colour Padparadscha of Swarovski crystal which is a bit lighter than her dress and added some silver colour beads for the accent as same look as the dress. Padparadscha is an interesting colour; it's not orange, red or pink either.
I use this colour with red a lot.
I also made the bracelet to surprise her.
I brought and put it on her on that day.
It was a tears moment for Antie Yoshiko...

I tried to make the set not too fancy this time because she is a young girl and she wanted to have something simple and sophisticated.


This is a picture of her in dress with these set.
She was absolutely beautiful!

"Congratulations! Juliana"

Dangle Earrings for Alison's wedding

Alison ordered simple and dangling Crystal earrings for her wedding.
I used SWAROVSKI crystal beads #5040, #5301 and #6010 drop beads. #6010 drop beads' facets look like a genuine gem.

I chose Crystal AB and Crystal colour combination. I like to use the beads which have a different colour effect on same colour base.
The synergy creates an effect neither would achieve on its own.

F.Y.I. Crystal AB (Aurora Borealis) was made for Christian Dior's special order.

Jewelley set for Cassie's wedding

My next-door neighbor and gardening guru Cassie ordered a set for her wedding.
I designed a flower motif for the necklace inspired by the embroidery of her dress,
chose blue colours which match her beautiful blue eyes. I added some dangle details on the bracelet and earrings. The bridesmaids and the flower girls wore these.

Chandelier Earrings

These chandelier earrings were made to match with the "Splendid Line" bracelet (below). These earrings have the same motif on the top as the bracelet.

I used three SWAROVSKI crystal drop beads #6010 for dangling.I love these #6010 drop beads because they have beautiful facets that create a lot of sparkles around your face.
