Three of these pairs of earrings are made from Gin and Tonic bottles. The dark blue pair is made from Vodka and Tonic bottles. I don’t even know if that’s a thing, but I loved the beads together! Starting to put a small collection of work together for my next shift at @tartscollective in just over a week.
Not sure where this necklace made from an assortment of handmade recycled glass beads is going yet, but sometimes you have to start with something to work out the next steps. Will have to think about this one some more.
Saturdays are for making beads and jewellery! I enjoyed mixing and matching beads for this bracelet, featuring a sweet handmade glass bird and beads made from recycled and Italian glass, along with semi-precious stones.
About 20 years ago I attended my first glass bead making workshop on Kangaroo Island. I left with these beads, and made this bracelet. I left knowing this was something I really wanted to do, but living in a 1 bedroom apartment in Sydney at the time meant I had to wait a while before I could do it. Have to say it was worth the wait.
I love it when people take the time to leave reviews for my jewellery online. With over 800 sales on Etsy now, I am delighted that my overall review status is still 5 stars!
Heading off to @tartscollective today with this new necklace featuring my recycled glass beads made from gin and wine bottles, along with semi-precious stones and freshwater pearls. Lovely to see restrictions being eased in South Australia as we start to move forward again.
Necklace #3. I still have beads left from my “favourites” series of work, but this is the last piece of jewellery in this small collection. I have loved sharing it with you, and thank you for all the lovely comments and purchases. The bits and pieces that haven’t sold will be headed to @tartscollectiveon Saturday March 12 when I work there next. This necklace is $110, no extra for postage in Australia.
Necklace #2. All my favourite beads in my favourite colours. This necklace has less beads than the first necklace, but still a lot of colour and fun. $125, no extra for postage in Australia.
