Mermaids Treasure

I have had this piece of sea glass for ages but could never come up with a design that suited the shape and colour of it.......until found these gorgeous fresh water pearls in ivory and pale greens. Then the design started taking shape... I added various glass beads in shades of green and some tiny silver balls. I made a silver plated wire scroll shape for the back of the pendant and attached all the beads and sea glass to it with fine silver wire. I hung the pendant on a silver chain.
The chain measures
From end to end 51 cms.
The pendant 4.5 cms. Wide 5.5cms. Long 2 cms. Deep

Treat yourself to the Mermaids Treasure!

Beaded Glitter Earrings in my Fondelifair Shop

Beaded Glitter Earrings

Gorgeous Calika beads decorated with tiny gold balls and flowers are the feature of these earrings.
I threaded the Calika bead onto gold plated wire and placed a gold filigree bead cap either side of it. I added a gold and a pale yellow glass pearl and a shiny gold metal bead.  I put a second gold bead between the top bead cap and the gold plated ear wire, to complete the earring.
 Length from hook  3.5 cms  1.50 inches

Calika Beads
These Calika beads are handmade in India, by craftsmen working in a cottage industry set-up. The raw materials and supplies needed to produce them are regularly checked for quality assurance and provided to just 9 artisans, all working from home. These artists have learned their skills from family members who have been creating such products for generations. By purchasing these beads, these artists are offered an opportunity to sell their work, thereby providing them with a better standard of living.
Each individual bead is unique!
