Pink Pearl and Crystal Jewellery

Saturday, April 14th, 2012

The other week I decide that I would start a blog series about prom accessories, it’s that time of year again and our lucky year 11 students get to celebrate their finial year at high school with a prom or valedictory.

10 years ago proms weren’t really a common occurrence in the UK  but as the years pass by and my school days seem to get further away we’ve embraced that Americans passion for getting dressed up, making ourselves look pretty and dancing the night away.

I’m not a pink kinda girl (however it seems to be growing on me since the birth of my daughter last December) but I asked my facebook fans what colour of jewellery I should create first and they suggested pink so here it is.  It was originally designed for bridesmaids but they can double up as pink prom jewellery.

I decided to spoil myself by working with sterling silver wire on this first bracelet, it was a novelty for me and I loved the fact that this bracelet is created entirely from sterling silver and Swarovski, even the clasp is handmade by shaping the wire and hammering it to give it strength.

That’s not the only sterling silver pink prom bracelet that I’ve created either, here’s a more classic type of crystal and pearl bracelet

If you weren’t after a pink bracelet then how about these pretty pink earrings?

New Diamante Headbands

Saturday, September 17th, 2011

Diamante headbands are always popular for weddings, headbands in general are a great easy accessory to wear and those decorated with diamante really catch the light and sparkle.

I’ve been busy making new bridal accessories and I’ve made a quite a few new diamante headbands, some are just diamante stones, others have have pearls and some have Swarovski crystals as well.  I’ll show you a sample of some of the ones I’ve made below.  As usual to read more information just click the image to be taken to the product page.

As I mentioned before this is just a small sample you can see all the diamante headbands we have in stock by clicking here: Wedding Headbands.

I haven’t included any side tiaras here but I know many people consider them to be the same thing as headbands.  There are a number of diamante side tiaras available and you can see those here: Diamante Side Tiaras.

 

New Wedding Hair Combs

Saturday, August 27th, 2011

This month I’ve been busy create new products, I have phases where I just can’t stop creating and I love to create some thing new instead of just fulfilling my orders.

So I accidentally started to create new wedding hair combs, it wasn’t my intention to create more then one but I just seemed to get carried away.

I’ve created these bridal hair combs with ivory glass pearls all with clear AB Swarovski crystals for that extra sparkle.  But if you wanted to use white pearls and a different coloured crystals, its possible by contacting me first.

If you click on the images it will take you to the product page with a lot more information about each bridal comb.

Let me know what you think of them.

New Wedding Jewellery

Tuesday, April 26th, 2011

I’ve been busy creating new products over the easter break and I thought I would share some of them with you.

I’ve been focusing on wedding jewellery as I only have a small selection on the site.  So below are 3 of my new items (there are more, I just didn’t have enough time to blog about them all!)

I import little silver flowers with diamante petals and centres and I wanted to use these as a focal point for some new designs.  I’ve created 2 necklaces, 1 for the bride, another for her bridesmaids and earrings to match.  These could be teamed with any of my Swarovski crystal bracelets but I am considering creating a bracelet to match.

All these pieces of wedding jewellery are created with clear Swarovski crystal meaning they really sparkle.  The diamantes encased within the silver flowers add a dazzling sparkle too.

While these are only available as standard in Clear Swarovski, I should be able to source the crystal in various colours if you want these designs amending to suit your colour choices.

Bespoke Bridal Accessories – Crystal Wedding Flower

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Flowers have always played a role in decoration for weddings so I’ve been meaning to create a crystal wedding flower for quite a while, but all my other bespoke orders took priority. So when I was asked to create a large crystal flower as a bespoke bridal accessory for a particular bride, it gave me an opportunity to create one for the site.  I’ve previously tried and failed in creating the perfect base for the flower from wire using different techniques.  I tried to create each petal equal, but doing this free hand is almost impossible.  But it while I was brain storming different techniques, it occurred to me that I already had the correct equipment to make a perfect flower with identical shaped petals.  So that was my first obstacle passed and now I had my basic flower shape.

The bride in question had emailed me a few photos of designs that she liked so I knew she wanted crystals along the middle of the flower running along the length of the petal, she’d also told me that she wanted to wear the flower to the side of a bun so I knew the comb needed to be attached to the flower on an angle.  You can see the finished design below.

Swarovski crystals are alternated with tiny silver seed beads to give extra sparkle on this Crystal Wedding Flower comb while keeping the cost as low as possible.

I’d promised that I would email the bride to be as soon as it was available to buy on the site and she sent the flowing response:

“Kerrie,
I love it! It’s PERFECT!
Just what  wanted. I’ve bought it! I want it now!

All work stopped here for everyone to come and see it because I let out an excited noise! haha

Thank you so much for all your help, you’re a star. I will defiantly recommend you in the future.”

So now the crystal flower here is currently in the postal system winging its way to her, I hope she likes it just as much when she gets to hold it in her hands.

This flower is perfect if you’re wearing your hair in a bun but will look pretty against any structured up do.  It’s available in clear Swarovski crystal and silver as standard but if you want to add any more colours into it, you only need to ask.  You can view the product page for the this large crystal wedding flower here:
