Inspiration for pieces explained: Green Leaf Necklace

        

I found the vintage mother-of-pearl leaves at a Vintage Fair on a disintegrating necklace. I had to have them! I paired them with the peridot because it is such a living, green colour. I love the set so much I made another just for me!

Inspiration for pieces explained: Crystal Sparkle Necklace

        

This necklace was designed to show off these unusual stones. I decided to have them all facing the same way rather than half-and-half, and I think it works really well. It certainly adds a lot of sparkle to the neck!

Inspiration for pieces explained: Butterfly Delight Necklace

        

I owned these beads for years before realising that with a pearl, they make the most delightful, summery jewellery! I played around with the arrangement quite a lot, as I had had the beads for so long it was difficult to find exact matches, so I opted for making do with what I had. I decided that a single pearl was best, and that several butterflies on the necklace would make it decorative, but not too heavy. The first time I paired a butterfly and a pearl I knew I was onto a winner.

Inspiration for pieces explained: Victorian Jet Necklace

             

I love jet, and wanted to do something special with these pieces. Although they are oddments, taken from Victorian jewellery, I think they work very well in this necklace.
