Simply Red Heart Zircon Pendant & Earring




This simple & elegant design is made using mba Kiki's (Borneo Queen) prong earring tutorial, the pendant is my first try so the prong isn't fit very well yet but sturdy enough to hold the heart zircon in place. The pendant idea is inspired by Inge's gift, the Scarlet pendant :) I had so much fun making this set, the tut is easy to follow, thank you mba Kiki :)

I gave this set as birthday gift for a very nice sister in law, hope she enjoy it and her life filled fully with so much love from God above.

Custom order available.
Material: non tarnish silver coated copper wire, red heart zircon / CZ (Cubic Zirconia), metal beads.

First attempt of trying cretan braid bezel pendant tutorial by Perri Jackson (Shaktipaj), first try on using jig and first attempt of using sterling silver wire for advance project, very challenging! I kink and broke the wire several times ;) Thank God He didn't let me gave up! Regardless of how imperfect it is, I really love the result, it looks so beautiful in my eyes ;) Thank you Lord...

Material: labradorite, 925 sterling silver (wire, beads, charm, clasp), Swarovski crystal beads.

Custom order available, also for non precious metal wire.

Custom order available.
Material: Swarovski crystal beads, brazilian ruby agate, non tarnish silver coated copper wire.

Vintage Paisley Earring




This is my ol' time favorite earring since I made them last December 2009. This is the first wire earring I ever made and the third wire jewelry project I made in the early days. Thank God, I love them so much and have been wearing them anytime anywhere.

This pair is inspired by Earrings by Erin's (Erin Paton) creation from the cover of Art Jewelry magazine last year. I never bought the magazine, only saw the ad somewhere. To my surprise, it turns out the earring project was canceled, haven't published yet until this year, while I have been wearing the earring for almost a year! You can find the instruction to make this earring in Art Jewelry magazine Sept 2010.

Custom order available.
Material: gun metal colored copper wire, red coral, Swarovski crystal bead
