Bridesmaid Decisions

Choosing your wedding colors may be the easiest part.  Brides usually have a favorite color that they have always known they would use for their special day.

Then she must choose the perfect dress or dresses to please all of her bridesmaids; a style that can be used again and not just hang in the closet to create another nightmare movie about bridesmaids' dresses.  One piece that needs to be decided early is the jewelry to match this perfect dress.  Now, not all bridesmaids are created equal and many have a mind of their own.  One wants the traditional pearls, one says absolutely no pearls, and the others may also have something in mind, but they just don't know what that perfect piece really is.  That is where I come in.  Trying to please both the bride and the bridesmaids.

My latest venture into the world of pleasing bridesmaids has been accomplished with something, I hope, will please everyone.  Crystals!!

I always say, "when in doubt, sparkle!"

These crystal necklaces have a combination of crystal sizes and accents colors, in addition to awesome crystal spacers and sparkle balls.   These should be a perfect compliment to the strapless eggplant satin dresses.  Still dressy without overdoing it.  Just a short choker length and sweet little dangle earrings and we have it made!!

Tomorrow, let's look at the flower girl!

Custom Wedding Work

I'm working on some custom wedding jewelry for a new client and I'm having a great time. She has marvelous ideas and mixed with my creativity it should be a wonderful mix!

Yesterday I attended a bead and gem show in Denver and I cannot begin to tell you how much fun it was . . . sparkly stuff everywhere!!! This room was larger than a football field and there were tables and tables of beads from all over the world. I bought some beautiful treasures and I cannot wait to start creating. I will let you know when I have some pictures ready for viewing.

In the meantime, I've been learning some new wire techniques and I will be posting those soon. Lovely work with copper wire and silver wire. You will LOVE it!

Beautiful Day in Colorado

The Momma Goddess has been busy photographing and uploading her new treasures. I've been making bookmarks and phone charms. Now who in their right mind will carry around a phone that doesn't make a statement? Really, that's what I thought as well! Some sparkle and glamour is important to all goddesses.

It truly has been a lovely day here in Colorado--sunny and cool. The Aspen have their leaves on now and the sound is lovely when a little breeze rustles through them. Such a relaxing way to spend a day!

Happy Birthday to Jenny Becker!!! My Tara Dawn's BFF! Have a fun-filled day Jenny!
