Chakra Jewellery

Good morning

I have had some enquiries from clients on my craft stall for Chakra jewellery.  So, looking into my stash I found some fun things to make.

The first find was two, silver plated, round, eight spaced cup bezels.  I know that the chakra only uses seven gemstones but I have added a clear crystal (the master healer stone) at the top of the bezel and I think that it only enhances the necklace.  I hope you will like the finished items as I like them very much.

The second find was a 925 SS chakra bracelet which needed to have the cabochons set and then properly finished off.  This was so much fun to make and I loved wearing it myself (for research, to ensure it was well made!).

I am hoping that the weather is on the way for Summer – at last, so enjoy your crafting.

Pre Cast Ear Rings

Morning everyone

It is TT Racing this week on the Isle of Man, so I am very busy having fun and not much time to make. 

In my stash I have had some pre-cast items for some time which need a gemstone set into them.  They are all Sterling Silver and I am hoping they are the first step to creating my own designs.

I started with some studs using 4mm cabochons in various stones, and then some freshwater cultured pearl studs.  Lastly, more pearl ear rings but these were more challenging with complicated findings.

I have enjoyed making all of these ear rings and they have certainly taught me some new skills.

I hope you like them too.
