Love Swarovski Filigree!

A few months ago I looked for filigree flowers to use for a charm bracelet and discovered how much I loved them! They looked so beautiful as earrings and were selling well in the shop, so I bought more! Not only did I buy more, I bought a variety of filigree crystals. The possibilities are endless!! Here is a picture of the earrings so you can see the different sizes.

I also used them in bracelets...next come necklaces...LOVE IT!

Craft Swap!

I participated in a craft swap organized by Kelci at Crafty Mama Creations. We were partnered up with another craftster and had to make something for each other. Well I had the wonderful Kelci! She made me a beautiful and large (just like I requested!) cosmetic bag. Not that I wear that much makeup but there never seems to be enough room in them when it comes to traveling. I love the polka dots on the inside!


I also emphasized that I wanted a clutch! She came through again with this beautiful and colorful clutch. It's perfect! I really love the aqua and can't wait to use it this summer.



I also made something for Kelci. She loves anything bold, and when I saw these green jade gemstones, I knew they were perfect. I bought an extra strand to make myself one! That happens alot... :) Check out Kelci's shop on etsy, she has one of a kind bags and accessories. I have my eye on a wristlet in her shop too!




She blogged about necklace and earrings and even took a pic of herself with the set on. Check it out. It really looks great on her! Maybe I am biased...
Thank you Kelci and have had a great experience and look forward to doing it again!
