Wedding Jewelry - New for 2012

These are a new edition for me this year!  The great thing about these necklaces is they are so versatile.  I can do a custom order on these.  Made to look old in the Victorian style.  You can order one with your birthstone color.  I can do them all antique silver or antique brass.
The necklaces go great with a Gothic theme, Steampunk, Victorian!  My jewelry is made with great care and there is no glue used on these!!

You can purchase or custom order here:  http://www.etsy.com/shop/DesignsBloom

Leapin Lizards - I love designs inspired by nature

I just have to share this new design.  I love animals and I really love dragonflys in the summer.  I have a lot of plants in my yard that attract butterflys, dragonflys and hummingbirds.  During the summer on certain days you can see hundreds of dragonflys swarming in the backyard and neighborhood.  Although I made this dragonfly look like lunch he really flys away to enjoy another day! LOL

How to add pictures!

Okay, so this is just a test to figure out what I'm doing!  I am going to try and add a picture.
Well that seemed to work!  I made this one yesterday.  I purchased some vintage glass crystals and am slowly making some jewelry with them.  I like the way this turned out.  Simple but sophisticated.
