New From My Bench

I love this piece of ocean jasper.  I wanted the toggle clasp to somewhat mimic both the setting and the orbs in the stone…think I did it? 

(SOLD - thank you!)

Cabochon Candy

I have received some gorgeous cabs in the mail over the last week so I thought I would share this eye candy…I can’t wait to begin designing with them.  If you would be interested in a custom setting for one of the stones, let me know.

My head is spinning with ideas so I guess I better get started.

Oh, the purples are Betrandite Tiffany opals (my new favorite stone); 2 cabs of ocean jasper (always a favorite) and the two tongues are lapis and the piece in the center is called Norway Jasper (blue streaks are lapis blue).

Pinterest

OK, I have finally done it…I joined Pinterest which probably was a huge mistake because when I log on to that website I can easily lose 2-3 hours just browsing all the gorgeous pictures, drooling over all the yummy recipes, liking, repinning, etc., etc.

If you are a Pinterest People, I would love for you to follow me…click on the link to your right and I’ll follow you also.

Here a couple of my favorite pins.

Isn’t this an amazing wall….I would sure hate to have to dust it.
