Miss Molly Button Earrings with Saphiret rhinestones

Nüüd on see tehtud. Võtsin julguse kokku ja lammutasin ühe antiikse prossikese ära. See oli ümmargune ning Saphiret kivid olid ringikujuliselt prossi servas. Kivi, mis pidi prossi keskel olema, oli läinud kaduma. Lähemalt saab lugeda Saphiret klaasist siin. Kõrvarõngad on tumedates toonides, saphiret klaasi punakaspruun ning vanade käsitsi tehtud (!) 1-2mm klaaspärlite beež toon sulab kokku antiikvaskse metalliga. Saphiret klaasi sinist helki õnnestus mul natuke ka fotole jäädvustada ent päriselus on see kivi palju ilusam :)

Now I've done it. I took apart an antique saphiret brooch for harvesting the stones. The brooch was round shaped and the saphiret rhinestones were in circle on the edge. The bigger stone in the middle was lost. You can read more about saphiret glass here. Earrings are in dark colors with red brown of the saphirets and beige color of handmade (!) 1-2mm glass pearls blend together with antique copper metal. I managed to get some of the saphirets blue light on photos but these stones look a lot prettier in person :)

Watching the time...

Aeg libiseb käest ja nii palju on vaja teha. Olen maha jäänud on raamatupidamisega, hulk tellimustöid on ootel ning konkursitööks pole mingeid ideid...

Time is slipping away and there's so much to be done. I'm behind with my bookkeeping, a lot of custom works are on the waiting list and there's no ideas for the competition...

New Competiton!

Ja siin see ongi - kolmas ehtekonkurss, milles teevad koostööd E-Beads ja Create Your Style with Swarovski Elements. Olen eelnevatest osa võtnud ning seda kajastanud ka siin blogis. Esimene oli Boudoir Beautiful 2010, teine Urban Beautiful 2011. Ei esimesest osa võtnud kaelakee ega teise kandideerinug kõrvarõngapaar ei suutnud parima 20 hulka saada. Kolmas konkurss kannab nime Blooming Beautiful.
Teema - Blooming Beautiful - on täis võlu, õisi ning seotud müstilise traditsionaalse Hiinaga. Loe rohkem siit. Seoses sellega panin kokku oma varudest mõned kivid, et natuke teemaga mängida. Mul pole mingitki ideed, mida võiksin teha :( Isegi mitte kõige pisematki.

And here it is - the third competition, made in cooperation of E-Beads and Create Your Style with Swarovski Elements. I've taken part of the previous ones and written about it here in my blog. First one was Boudoir Beautiful 2010, second Urban Beautiful 2011. My pieces - necklace for the first and earrings for the second - didn't make it to the best 20. Third competition is named Blooming Beautiful.
Theme - Blooming Beautiful - is full of enchantment, blossoms and mystical traditional China. Read more here. So I put together a selection of rhinestones from my stash, just playing. I do not have any idea what to make :( None whatsoever.
