My very close friend, Angie Weldon, and I spent last Saturday afternoon making ribbon necklaces inspired by an Anthropologie "Power of 3" (Trinity) necklace.  We used beautiful, faceted shell pearls I found on Etsy and paired it with faceted crystal quartz beads.  We also made simple earrings to match. They'll look great with sweaters, dresses or even just a simple white blouse and dark denim jeans.  I love how they turned out so much, I just may have to make some to sell in the near future!

My First Attempt at Oxidizing Silver

Here are the results of my first attempt at oxidizing sterling silver earrings with liver of sulfur. The process was easier and went much smoother than expected. I had purchased liver of sulfur over a year ago and just never took the time to experiment, because I thought the process would be complicated. I absolutely love the steel gray tone of the oxidized silver, and can't wait to create more jewelry!
