While I was up to being my nomadic self these last few months, I kept my eyes open for new components for earrings. I’ve seen an interest from people in this aspect of my Talisman Too shop on Etsy, and wanted to offer something new. I decided to focus on crafting a collection of semiprecious gemstone earrings.

Plus – who doesn’t like shopping in a bead store!

My focus was on natural semiprecious gemstones, and metal beads to add intrigue. I wasn’t disappointed. I found several pretty beads of Azurite, Red Creek Jasper, Kyanite and more. As well, I found some beautiful metal findings to use with these styles as well as with Czech Glass beads.

I set to work in my “studio”(the passenger seat of my van Ramses), and let my creative muse begin to do her dance.

Here are some of the earring designs I came up with. You can click on the pictures to be linked to the item in my shop. There, you’ll find more images and information.

Keep in mind that, along with these and more new earring designs, I’ve crafted quite a few new pendants, all featuring cabochons which I’ve personally cut, shaped and polished. See the current pendants here. A few of our most recent creations on this blog post!
