Wedding Jewellery in my Etsy Shop

Silver Spray

Gorgeous sparkly drop earrings made from white and pewter facetted crystal glass beads.
I made these earrings to compliment the silver spray necklace seen below. I love these bold pewter crystal glass beads and used them as the main feature. I added a milky white, a crystal and a silvery glass bead and threaded them all onto silver plated wire; I completed the earring with a silver plated ear wire.
Length:  from hook 4 cms. (1.5 inches)






Pewter crystal facetted beads, crystal and opal fire polished glass beads, threaded on supple silver Beadalon wire, hang in a collar shape from white satin cord.

I love these bold pewter crystal glass beads and used them as the main feature. I added milky white and opal glass beads and silvery balls. I threaded them all onto satin silver Beadalon wire so that they took on a subtle shape and sparkled as they moved. I threaded the seven dangles onto white satin cord and closed the necklace with a pretty silver plated rose clasp enhanced with a central rhinestone.

Wear this necklace with the matching earrings pics. above, to sparkle on your wedding day or to shine at that important event.

The necklace measures
From end to end... 43 cms. (17 inches) ,
The centre dangles 10.5cms. (4.25 inches) in depth.

Choosing coloured background for photos

I have always had difficulty when photographing some of my jewellery to find a suitable coloured background to show the piece to its best advantage. White has been a particular problem. 
This is an easy solution, I found quite by chance, that might be helpful.
Last Christmas I bought a book of assorted coloured card, actually for making cards, I took all the colours that I thought might work with white or crystal jewellery, and made photos, this is the result.... the photos themselves are not the best, but it gives a good idea of what does and doesn't work, and is easy to keep on your desktop for future reference. 















And this is the colour I choose
