New Jewels

I made some new jewels in anticipation of Christmas, both for me to wear and for me to give.  I used the same methodology as these wire-wrapped earrings I made a few months ago for all of them:

This pair goes with the batik tops I recently made:


This pendant, made from rose quartz and some sort of green stone, goes with the batik skirt I made for Jamie:


These turquoise babies are for me... I got these turquoise beads back in high school in Arizona and routinely change their setting.  They have had many lives as various necklaces, bracelets and earrings...  These babies go with a three-strand cuff bracelet I made a few years ago that stuck.
