Inspiration for pieces explained: Glamorous Garnet and Rock Crystal Necklace

    
   

The garnets in this necklace were just crying to be shown off. I had the square profile rock crystals, and though they both mirrored the shape of the garnets, but also brought forward that wonderfully rich, deep red. But how to use them? Side by side the two types of stone locked together and would have left very ugly wire showing if I could get it to bend! However, the simple addition of a silver bead between each garnet means that the necklace is now both flexible, and extra gorgeous!

Inspiration for pieces explained: Amethyst Graduated Trio Drop Earrings

     
   

I had bought a graduated strand of the most amazing amethysts. Instead of just stringing them into a necklace, I made them into a bracelet, but not before I kept back six matching beads, paired to three different sizes. This then allowed me to make these stunning earrings, that have all the colour depth, texture, and interest anyone could ever want,
