Vacation time!

This piece is sort of fun'n'flirty- makes me think of being on vacation at the beach.

Pink'n'Purple

I really like the combination of colours in this piece- I also like how the texture of the stone nuggets contrasts with the pearl and the sparkle of the smokey grey beads. I think I will have to make another one like it for myself....

Treasure from the Sea

Last summer while I was on vacation in PEI I collected sea glass and shells with the intention of incorporating them into some jewellery. Here are some photos of what I have used them in so far.

how it starts...

Here is a photo of a piece that I made for a dear friend of mine. I wanted to make something as a christmas gift and when I saw this pendant it just screamed her name! The colours, the sparkle, the hint of the exotic.... something that she could carry off better than anyone. If you see this piece on a brunette with a stunning smile turning heads in Oakville....that's another PurpleSky original :)

new creations

As with most new ventures there is always more to do than you originally thought and the time passes quickly. My first show is next week and I still haven't finished everything I want to get done.

I am posting some photos of some new pieces. I've been trying to keep a record of what I make so that others can get an idea about my designs and I can remember exactly what I did.

Let's hope for good weather next Wednesday :)

Some early pieces

Here are photos of some of the first pieces I made for a friend of mine. She has lovely blue eyes which is why I chose this colour for her. So if you happen to see a tall blonde wearing these- they're a PurpleSky original :)
