This is the Third annual Swap N Hop the brainchild of <a href="http://fromthebeadboard.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: red;">Linda Anderson</span></a>. We submit our names earlier in the year and Linda matches us up with a partner. You each send to your partner a focal and a clasp and some beads. This is what I sent my partner <a href="http://www.chellerydesigns.net/blog" style="color: red;">Rachelle Walker</a>.<br />
<br />
I sent her a light lavender focal by bead artist Debbie Hull and a fold over magnetic clasp and some various beads in green and purple<br />
<br />

My partner assigned by<span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: blue;"> </span><a href="http://www.prettythingsblog.com/"><span style="color: red;">Lori Anderson</span></a></span><span style="color: red;"> </span>was <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/gpoveda/bead-soup-blog-party-2017/"><span style="color: red;"><b>Gail Poveda</b></span></a> . Gail is participating for the very first time in the swap. Gail is a spanish teacher of K-8. She started beading about 10 years ago and then started taking jewelry classes to spark her creative interest. Her true love is enameling. She made the most beautiful enamel charms that she sent me. She made these about three years ago and couldn't figure out what to do with them. As soon as I saw them I knew what I wanted to do. I hope I did her charms proud!<br />
<br />
Here are the charms:<br />

I originally was going to wire wrap this lovely copper neck piece from Kathleen Hamilton but it over shadowed her beautiful texture on the copper piece so instead I took chains as well as some red lampwork beads and made components with the charms, chain and jump rings.</div>

I love how the necklace wears because it has movement because of the chain and the dangles are not too long but I think adds interest.</div>

What fun....Anyway I will be participating in this Hop and hope you will join me. I have my partners package ready to send out but if I need to change it up for their preferences I will. I love all things glass. I love almost all colors the more colorful the better. I especially love all blues and purples. I work a lot in fused glass but I love to try different things. If you scroll through my blog you will see different hops and contests I have participated in. Lately I have worked in seed beads and glass. I will post later in the week all the dates for the two new things I am participating in. I just can't sit at a computer right now.<br />

<br />
I love being a jewelry designer that contributes to charitable events I participate every year in "Flood the Streets with Art" which takes place on Black Friday, I also join several blog hops and then sell my creations and give to local charities. One of my very favorite is the Art Charm Swap which once a year is hosted by <a href="http://www.glassaddictions.com/"><span style="color: magenta;">Jen Cameron</span></a><br />
<br />
This is how it all begins. Designers sign up to create an Art Charm. We are placed into groups of ten. Each designer makes 11 charms to swap with each member in the group of ten. The eleventh charm is kept by Jen and she auctions it off for Beads Of Courage.<br />
<br />
<br />
What do you do with the charm? Well you can make a bracelet or a necklace or tie them to your cell phone! Each charm is a work of art! <a href="http://www.beadsofcourage.org/"><span style="color: magenta;">Beads Of Courage</span></a> is a wonderful organization that gives away beads (made by glass artists) to children suffering from life threatening illnesses to celebrate milestones they reach in their journey to wellness. Go to their site to see all the wonderful things this organization does.<br />
<br />
The auction will be any day now as soon as we fix a small glitch. I will let you know the exact date so stay tuned. You can bid on any of these charms to help the children. All proceeds go to Beads of Courage as all artists donated their beautiful charms for this event and Jen donates all her time to running the Swap and the Auction.. Did I tell you the theme is Fairy Tales!<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px;"><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></span>
<br />
<br />
Here are my charms. I hand wrapped each piece and added a handmade glass bead to the top of each charm. I donated 20 charms and used three different designs<br />
<br />

<br />
These are all the other designers. Just go to each one and see what they made and deside which ones you would like to have and start the bidding!<br />

Erin chose me to be her partner this month.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately I threw my back out so it has been difficult to create as much as I wanted to. I will be making several other pieces if you check back on my blog.<br />
<br />
So anyway here are the beads:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And the inspiration photo</div>

<br />
I especially liked the blue iris glass on silver chain. Very sparkly but you can't really capture all the color well in a photo without the right lighting, but they so remind me of the twinkling in the night sky. Here is a close up:<br />

Here is the finished necklace. this piece hangs really well on the neck. I made it 18 1/2 inches with the cute Star clasp. You could actually wear this during the day or night.</div>

These silver sliders will be part of the next piece I make. If you check back next month I will show you what I came up with. I also will have a pair of earrings to go with this necklace. Unfortunately my back can't be in this position any more to finish more pieces.<br />
<br />
<br />

Erin sent me a slew of beads that she personally picked out from Michael's that hopefully inspires me to create jewelry using the inspirational photo below.<br />

<br /><br />I have a friend that has taken many photo's of the night sky at a place called Sea Ranch where I used to live so this challenge was perfect for me.

I know I will have fun creating the jewelry!<br /><br />Please check back for the reveal on July 27th.<br /><br />MarianneUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7151932306428139424.post-3086116179569426102016-05-14T23:45:00.000-07:002016-05-14T23:45:11.671-07:00Swap N Hop REVEAL!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

May 15th is finally here. I have been making jewelry like mad! My partner <a href="https://lefthandjewelry.wordpress.com/">Laurie Vyselaar</a> really outdid herself with all she sent me. I still have so many left over beads that I will have to keep on making jewelry even after the Blog Hop is over. First I will show you the cute boxes she did. She put different colorways and beads in each box. Aren't they cute<br />

Just a beautiful bead in various shades of purple. Laurie also sent me a beautiful purple and turquoise glass headpin. I added some glass purple and turquoise beads I had in my stash and wire wrapped groupings of beads. I love it!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I then made a bracelet with a magnetic foldover clasp. Laurie sent me this beautiful glass bead. If this is your bead please let me know for credit.+<br />

<br />
Last I made this necklace and earrings with a polymer clay focal that Laurie made. She used a warm goldie bronze color and I paired it with some glass lampwork beads that she made some glass disc beads and some beautiful in teale, green and blue all in deep colors which makes this fabulous for fall.<br />
<br />
this is a close up of the leaf. Also the bumpy bead in the center is a handmade bead by Shawn E. Turner<br />

These are a pair of earrings I made that have handmade glass beads in turquoise and purple and I paired them with purple polymer leaves that Laurie made.<br />
<br />
On the right last but not least. I wired a tye dye pendant bead that Laurie made in polymer clay and placed it on a purple ribbon. Very cute for that teenager in your life.<br />
<br />
<br />
These are all the beads I still have left.<br />

So of course I asked to join. I like to work in different media at different times. Seems to spark my creativity not to mention it takes me away from unpacking lol. So I found a pattern by Deborah Hodoyer and first I did it in bronze and gold. (Sorry the photo's are not that great because I had to take them from my phone because my camera broke.)<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Then I thought I would do the same in blue and purple.<br />
I din't follow the pattern as I used a different bail and I made this one smaller. I used spiral stitch for the ropes and then added chain. I love them and hope you do also<br />

Whew last year was one for the books. We moved to a new state after living in California our whole life. We love it in Oregon but after living in a drought state we are now in a wet state so we are trying to get some clear days to unpack the garage. We have however just about settled into the house although I have 5 more boxes to finish my studio. I know I will get there but oh do I never want to do this again.<br />
I have been working on a few new designs but in beaded jewelry only. I plan to spend this whole year on revamping my website, taking new classes in glass and metal, doing a few shows and getting involved in this wonderful new community.<br />
<br />
Soon I will also be participating in a few blog hops which I love because you get to stretch your creativity, work with new designers, try new things and have some fun.<br />
Check back soon to see what is happening this year.<br />

Here is a grouping of some of them<br />

I made 23 pairs plus polished all of my metal pieces which this week I will be putting together some necklaces and bracelets. I am still selling all of my fused glass jewelry which has been reduced . If you want to check the sale out go to my <a href="http://www.simplyseablimejewelry.com/">WEBSITE.</a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Aren't these cute! I named them Aztec. The dangles are made by <a href="http://www.zibbet.com/Sweet2Spicy">Elsie Smith</a> and the top periwinkle beads are made by Francesca DeClaire. The pink ones are made by Sandra Arduwie ( her facebook page is Beads In Space.) I wire wrapped in sterling silver with sterling silver dangles. These are $38 and can be purchased from my <a href="http://www.facebook.com/simplyseablimejewelry">Facebook Page</a>. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MW1fWo5i6uw/VVfQ_Pi0ruI/AAAAAAAAAiM/7VlI9pQG-YE/s1600/SimplySeablimeJewelryMarsala%2Bfor%2BElsie.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MW1fWo5i6uw/VVfQ_Pi0ruI/AAAAAAAAAiM/7VlI9pQG-YE/s320/SimplySeablimeJewelryMarsala%2Bfor%2BElsie.jpg" width="229" /></a></div>
I didn't like this years Pantone color of Marsala until Elsie made me these dangles out of polymer clay. They matched the glass beads made by Lori Robbins perfectly. I love them they are also $38 and can be purchased on facebook.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-96nCD5lrWFg/VVfWJQ1ztfI/AAAAAAAAAik/VBuQxeHyjqk/s1600/SimplySeablimeJewelry%2BBeach.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-96nCD5lrWFg/VVfWJQ1ztfI/AAAAAAAAAik/VBuQxeHyjqk/s320/SimplySeablimeJewelry%2BBeach.jpg" width="173" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Love these beach earrings. Polymer clay dangles are made by Helena Benkoczka and the wonderful beads are made by Sandra again. I love anything beachy and I might keep these if no one wants them. They are also for sale for $38.<br />
<br />
I had lots of fun but now onto the metal pieces.<br />
Have a great day,<br />

Her and I had much in common not only personally but we also got sick about the same time and had major/minor problems at our houses during preparation for this hop. So here goes. Remember all the wonderful items Elsie sent me<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jNtYvUGF5ZY/VUU7IDyT0II/AAAAAAAAAgU/uOmF6yG5EbU/s1600/resized%2Bfinal.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jNtYvUGF5ZY/VUU7IDyT0II/AAAAAAAAAgU/uOmF6yG5EbU/s1600/resized%2Bfinal.jpg" height="259" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3G1mPjeUogE/VUU7Jxuy5-I/AAAAAAAAAgw/cCVqFGZ9HOI/s1600/whole%2Bgemstone%2Bset.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3G1mPjeUogE/VUU7Jxuy5-I/AAAAAAAAAgw/cCVqFGZ9HOI/s1600/whole%2Bgemstone%2Bset.jpg" height="320" width="180" /></a> At first I was overwhelmed with choices. I don't normally work with gemstones but I loved all the different colors and shapes. So first I worked with the Chrysophase chips and some small agates. The first photo is the entire set. I made the bracelet with memory wire and the earrings I wire wrapped some gold filled wire around the stones. Just a beautiful stone focal and some oblong chips.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2MBYVvuSLj0/VUU7EMXkcaI/AAAAAAAAAfI/eJketLnQldY/s1600/earrings%2Bresized%2Bgemstone%2Borange.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2MBYVvuSLj0/VUU7EMXkcaI/AAAAAAAAAfI/eJketLnQldY/s1600/earrings%2Bresized%2Bgemstone%2Borange.jpg" height="320" width="180" /></a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I then started on my favorite set. I just loved these beads made out of cord wrap. These beads are soft and light, and added with these wonderful ceramic square beads just give a very romantic/boho vibe. I wire wrapped units of different beads. </div>

Here is the whole set plus individual pictures of each piece. The necklace is 36 inches long. and I added a magnetic fold over clasp on the bracelet from my stash. I attempted to use only what Elsie sent me except for wire and chain and the clasp.<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LAFIhLL29vg/VUU7Imi4CJI/AAAAAAAAAgc/2j4qEWegwJo/s1600/small%2Bgreen%2Bbead.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><br />

I love these earrings with wire wrapped stones. First time I have ever done this. Elsie sent me brass earring loops so I thought these small green gemstone beads worked well.<br />

This focal I had in my stash and it was really going to be used for bracelet bars but I decided the coloring worked well with the other parts. I didn't really need to add the clasp as this necklace is quite long but I thought it adds to the design. <br />

<br />
<br />
The final set was made up of these beautiful turquoise beads and this fabulous copper focal. Very unusual with all the twisting of the copper. I made just simple earrings because this necklace is only 17 inches long so it sits closer to the neckline and I didn't want to overwhelm the look.<br />

I am already working on a pearl bracelet with the lovely glass sparkly beads and something to add the black key to as well as I realized I did not use the clasp Elsie gave me so I will probably make another necklace.</span></span> Let me know what you think in the comments below.<br />

There are over 150 artists participating in this hop. You randomly get placed with another artist, The artists contact each other get to know something about them and then you exchange at least one focal and one clasp and some coordinating beads. Some people send lots some send less but you have to send at least those few things. Elsie went all out even making a little luggage type card that she decorated with material and it has all of her info printed on it. You will see it to the right of the first picture. I opened the box and she had everything labeled. Tons of bags.<br />

When I opened all the bags I was so excited. There was quartz gemstones, pearls, these great beige and blue ceramic beads, some brass and silver pieces, a key, some beautiful beads that are made out of cord in a beautiful seafoam green,some crystals a great quartz focal. I will show in more detail in my next post.<br />

Soup two consisted of a fused glass focal I made with fuschia, gold and green with black accents. Unfortunately really hard to capture the shine and glitz of the dichroic glass<br />

She loves to craft besides making jewelry and she makes decorations for birthdays ,weddings
sweet sixteen and school reunions.The glue gun and a pair of scissors
are her best friends. Give her glitter , glue ,paper , duct tape and she can
create. She lives in New Your, while I live in California which is so fun! I love these hops because you meet people that you wouldn't have met and you get to know and see other types of creativity. We have so much in common it was amazing. Anyway here is a quick couple of photo's of what I sent...actually just a tease. She should get her package tomorrow and I should receive mine and then I will post the photo's. <br />

<br />
I am so excited to participate in the Bead Peeps Swap N Hop. We have not received our partners yet. I will know who I will be partnered with on February 19th and our reveal will be on May 2nd. I can't wait until I receive my package of goodies, since you never know what is going to come it is always exciting. What happens is your partner sends you a focal, some beads and a clasp. Sometimes you get a bunch of things and some times you get a few. You then add to your creation from your own stash. You make one or several jewelry pieces and then you post on your blog what you made and then you can go around to all the other blogs and see what people did with what they received from their partner. I have participated in about 5 of this particular swap with upwards of 400 people and I am always amazed not only by my partner but all the other artists and what they create. Stay tuned!<br />

When I first saw the color I was kind of underwhelmed. I looked up the color on the Pantone site and here is what I learned:<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><b> </b>Much like the fortified wine that gives Marsala its name, this tasteful hue embodies the satisfying richness of a fulfilling meal while its grounding red-brown roots emanate a sophisticated, natural earthiness. This hearty, yet stylish tone is universally appealing and translates easily to fashion, beauty, industrial design, home furnishings and interiors.</span><br />
<h4>
The Versatility of Marsala</h4>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">Equally appealing to men
and women, Marsala is a
stirring and flavorful shade for apparel and accessories, one that
encourages color creativity and experimentation</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;">Flattering against many
skin tones, sultry and subtle Marsala
is a great <q>go-to</q> color for beauty, providing enormous highlight for
the cheek, and a captivating pop of color for nails, shadows lips and
hair.</li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;">Dramatic and at the same
time grounding, the rich and full-bodied red-brown Marsala
brings color warmth into home interiors</li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list 36.0pt;">An earthy shade with a bit
of sophistication, texture is the story in print and packaging. A matte
finish highlights Marsala’s
organic nature while adding a sheen conveys a completely different message
of glamour and luxury. </li>
</ul>
Makes the color sound pretty interesting for instance as a makeup color....Here is a swatch of the color<br />

Once I read the description I can see myself using this color in my designs. Marsala pairs very well with many colors.<br />

Many hospital visits later I am ready to move into a new year. Our house is up for sale and I have been busy packing and sorting all my jewelry supplies. What a job, I never realize how much I have until I either try to organize it or in this case pack it up. I had several de-stash sales and made lots of other beaders' happy and put some money in my account to take some classes this year. I am rethinking and restarting my business in terms of goals and materials I will be working in. I will still be working in glass but doing more with metals and Lampwork not just fused glass. Stay tuned for some exciting news!<br />
<br />
Drop on over to my <b><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://www.simplyseablimejewelry.com/" target="_blank">website</a></span></b> because I have all my jewelry on sale....All pendants are only $29 and all earrings are just $22. All have sterling silver or gold filled findings. Get yourself a wonderful Valentines day gift or treat a friend.<br />

I have had art shows 4 weekends in a row. Luckily I had already finished my entry for this blog hop.<br />
I would like to thank Rita of <a href="http://www.jewelschoolfriends.com/" target="_blank">Toltec Jewels</a> for sponsoring the Anchors Aweigh Blog Hop. She has been very generous with all of the participants. Please take a moment to go to her website by clicking on Toltec Jewels and see all of her beautiful creations<br />
Remember we were supposed to have a blog hop with just 10 artists but Rita just can't help herself or actually I think she hates to say no to all of us because we all beg to get in to any of her blog hops, ha ha. So now we have 25 artists participating and I will share the list so you can visit all the artists and see what we made with what we were so lucky to receive. Please visit and leave comments if you can because we would all love to hear what you think of our designs.<br />
Here is what we received compliments of Rita and artistically created by Diana from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/suburbangirlbeads" target="_blank">Suburban Girl Studio</a>. These little cute porcelain charms were either in green or blue.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ter3-01SCKw/VAvv1v1hsyI/AAAAAAAAAXo/I7WjED2dUfI/s1600/anchors%2Bnew%2Bresized.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ter3-01SCKw/VAvv1v1hsyI/AAAAAAAAAXo/I7WjED2dUfI/s1600/anchors%2Bnew%2Bresized.jpg" height="200" width="163" /></a></div>
I received green ones. Aren't they adorable? As soon as I looked at these they screamed earrings. I wanted something to tie into the theme and I looked through all of the tons of bead stash I have and I found these copper birds and some connectors that looked kind of ropy and reminded me of life savers that they throw out to you when you go overboard on a boatI I also had some wooly wire that I had never used and I wanted to add a little color to brighten up the design. Took me several weeks walking by all the different parts that I had laid out on my desk. I just couldn't make up my mind because I had another set of connectors but they were just plain circles in brass and it just kinda looked a little boring. In the end I went with my first design and I hope you like them.<br />
<br />
Without further adieu!<br />

I had a hard time at first even though I loved the colors of all the beads. I was just stuck for some reason. Lisa Lodge of <a href="http://gratefulartist.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Pine Ridge Treasures</a> sponsors this hop. She likes us to use as many as the beads in the kit as we can as well as beads from our stash but not purchase any. Of course all beader's have more beads than they know what to do with. I used quite a bit and still have enough to make a few more things, or add to my stash for another day.<br />
A reminder of all the wonderful beads.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-trj__Fj21Fw/U9bOIPbItzI/AAAAAAAAAWI/cHa6p8_gFLY/s1600/beach+carnival+loose+beads+resized.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-trj__Fj21Fw/U9bOIPbItzI/AAAAAAAAAWI/cHa6p8_gFLY/s1600/beach+carnival+loose+beads+resized.jpg" height="200" width="190" /></a></div>
<br />
I decided to work on a necklace first. I wanted to make something that dangled in front. I laid out all the colors and thought I would use the yellow and blue sea glass with some of the white beads. I had a really cute silver head pin that has flowers on it and I used that to dangle some more beads. So reminds me of summer!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-URN5R74WkPg/U9bRZrHaD7I/AAAAAAAAAXE/YNL97RZgnwU/s1600/carnival+necklace+new.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-URN5R74WkPg/U9bRZrHaD7I/AAAAAAAAAXE/YNL97RZgnwU/s1600/carnival+necklace+new.JPG" height="400" width="225" /></a></div>
Then I decided I needed a bracelet and earrings to go with the necklace. The glass beads that look a little green in the photo actually are this wonderful warm shade of yellow gold. The bracelet is a simple stretch bracelet and is very light. The bottom pair of earrings I also added a green crystal along with the blue and gold crystal. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YrFFRhqyf0U/U9bY-7Q5dxI/AAAAAAAAAXY/JEIuGtI7jtE/s1600/bracelet+earrings+new+resized+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YrFFRhqyf0U/U9bY-7Q5dxI/AAAAAAAAAXY/JEIuGtI7jtE/s1600/bracelet+earrings+new+resized+copy.jpg" height="238" width="320" /></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
After I finished those I thought I would make a gold set but with a longer chain. This necklace can be worn with jeans or even that little black dress don't you think?<br />
<br />

I love these gold earrings made with the crystals and sea glass. <br />
