Gorgeous, Choker Necklace with Smokey Quartz Wire Wrapped Pendant

I designed this smokey Quartz Choker around a gorgeous, Quartz baguette stone that I purchased.  It has elegance written all over it!

My jewelry designs are very seldom born at the work bench; it is actually quite the opposite.  After examining the stone for some time, I will ponder over it and try to figure out what setting would most suit this particular stone.

After rolling the idea around in my head, sometimes for days, it's as though a light goes and everything points in that one direction.  After finally deciding this is the best route to take, I then sit down at my work bench and begin making into a reality something that was once, only an idea.  I really hope you enjoy my sexy,  ribbon choker with Smokey Quartz, wire wrapped pendant in 14k gold filled.  It's a very stunning piece that is also very versatile and it's a one size fits all choker, ties at the back.  You may wear it more as a necklace, no need to wrap it around as I did on the photograph; you may also slip it off the ribbon and add to a longer chain as a beautiful necklace for the office.  Many great ways to wear this piece!  Click here for more info.  Go to my shop to see my Black Friday Sales, beginning today.

For the Gardener - Cute Garden Stakes Herb Garden Markers Hostess Gift

There is nothing more lovely than seeing lush greenery in a beautiful garden.  I designed these garden stakes with that in mind.  I wanted to contrast the green against the bright yellow... you know me, it's all about color coordinating and contrasts!!

These garden stakes are made of fused glass.  I hand wrote the herb and vegetable names with an engraving tool and then I added a special, black colored paint.  You'll also notice that I drilled each one and added a really practical twine loop so that you can hang them neatly in your garden shed (makes it easier to pull them out of the ground too.)

Each one is a handmade, unique piece since they're all made individually.  They make the cutest hostess gifts for the gardener.  What I really like about these is that they're more than just markers, they're decorative and add a touch of charm and beauty to any vegetable or herb garden.  They also look great in a pot as well.  I offer these in a bundle or individually.  Click here for more info on the garden stakes or click here to see all of my unique, handmade gifts:  wire wrapped jewelry, simple necklaces, quality gold earrings, recycled bottle glass art pieces, individually made buttons, coaster sets and so much more...

New Tuscan Cheese Dish Plate with Red Grapes Handmade in New Brunswick

Here is my latest cheese plate, Tuscan Style with red grapes and cheese done in a grafiti technique, which is just a fancy word for painting and scratching the paint off.  What is really awesome with this cheese tray is that the paint turns into glass once I'm finished with the tray, so you don't need to worry about the paint scratching off getting damaged.  You can even stick it in the dishwasher.  For more information, click here and go to my etsy shop. 

Black Friday Sale, November 25, 2011 in my Etsy Shop

Can you believe I knew nothing about Black Friday Sales event before I had an Etsy Shop?  Perhaps this is too embarrassing and I should not go on, but in my defense, I come from a small Canadian town and although we're not too far from the American border, we don't travel there too often. and the times we did go to the USA, were in December or during summer vacations.  Now, I'm no longer ignorant of its meaning.   I learned Black Friday is not a holiday, and is very much comparable to our Boxing Day sales here in Canada with the only difference being that it is in November after Thanksgiving.

Why is it called Black Friday is what I was wondering. The term seemed kind of creepy and I was very curious to find out the origin.  The expression "Black Friday" makes so much sense once you know the answer.  In business when a retailer turns a profit, he is in the black and because there is such a frenzy on that day, retailers definitely turn a profit!!   Funny how something can make so much more sense once you make a bit of research, on Google, of course.

I will be preparing my Etsy shop for "Black Friday" Specials so might want to keep an eye.  I will randomly choose different items from my store and offer a crazy reduced price... something I do not do very often.  Remember, November 25th, Black Friday Sale in my Etsy Shop for extra savings...

Beach Glass Bottle Stopper Unique and Handmade

Combing beaches in search of sea glass, unique beach stones and sea shells is definitely a long standing tradition seen around the world and it is no different in our area.  Every day there seems to be someone walking up and down the seashore, head directed downward as a hound dog would his nose, ready to sniff out that rare, beautiful gem.  My husband and I were no exception to that rule; we took advantage of any opportunity we had to rush down to the beach and just couldn't wait for the competition to begin.  That's right, everything's a competition with my husband.  He was determined to find the rarest red, or better yet, the king of colors:  orange.  As we strutted up and down the beach, my husband way ahead as he was rushing to be the all time winner, we discovered beautiful pieces of colored gems waiting to be found, waiting to shine in all their glory in some unique piece of jewelry, or perhaps a something completely new.

Being the person that I am, I couldn't just make jewelry with my newly found treasures.  My mind kept searching for some new application, something different that hasn't been seen before, something completely different.  Seeing that I had learned the art of fusing glass, I tried to apply the technique to my beach glass, which I think worked out quite nice.  Because of the different glass pieces being incompatible to each other (something you learn when you work with glass - it's important to use glass that work together, that are compatible), it's pretty much trial and error.  Below you will see an example of one of the new applications I found for beach glass:  Beach Glass Wine Bottle Stopper, which make great hostess gifts.  These are unique gifts for him or gifts for her.  You may check out my Etsy Shop for more glass creations such as more sea glass creations, recycled wine bottle designs and more.

Please make sure to read the announcement part of my Etsy Shop for information on how to save up to
40%; I'm also offering a coupon code where you can save even more.  :)
