Mother's Rings
Saturday, March 29th, 2008Mother’s rings let moms and grandmothers use birthstones to display the birth months of their children and grandchildren. The mother’s rings in this collection are unique, just like the children they represent, but they’re not just for moms. The stackable rings, especially the eternity version, lets your girlfriend or fiancé display her birthstone next to yours.
Shop for Earrings
Saturday, March 29th, 2008I love earrings. Switching them out is an easy way to change your look, even if you don’t change too much about the rest of your ensemble. Earrings can be as basic, elegant or whimsical as you want, and you can find super styles for just a few dollars each, and some earring made from semi-precious gemstones aren’t a whole lot more expensive. Plan to spend more if your favorite earrings are made from diamonds!
Aromatherapy Jewelry
Saturday, March 29th, 2008
Essential oils are on store shelves everywhere now that more people are using them for everything from aromatherapy to house cleaning. I like to wear them as perfume, but undiluted oils are usually too harsh to dab onto skin. Jewelry designers like Peggy Carey have come up with alternatives, and Peggy’s solution is a wooden aromatherapy pendant. It lets us dangle our favorite scents around our necks, where it keeps pure versions of essential oils safely away from skin.

Rainbow Crystal Butterfly Brac
Saturday, March 29th, 2008These 8mm Swarovski crystal butterfly beads from Jerry Smith of www.jsbeads.com may look dainty but they pack a lot of punch in terms of sparkle.
The finished bracelet is 6 3/4 inches because, well, thats what fit me. If you want it longer or shorter, just adjust the length of chain you start out with and add or subtract butterfly beads as necessary. Youll see that this chain is the same type I used in the Rainbow Crystal Butterfly Necklace project (1 long link and 3 short links).
