New raw materials bought

Yippy!!! Yesterday I actually met up with Peanuto and Pooky to buy the earirngs raw materials.
It was actually quite a last minute thing..but it's rather fruitful~
I bought some new charms that I had never buy before and a set of gold accessories to make gold stuffs.
We also went in search of a rose metal piece to go with the pearl. That's Peanuto desired design and wow we found it! Really excited to make it and I finished it last nite.
The product is as shown... Hope she like it~
Today really in the earrings mood... I made several pairs today.

My mum saw the new stuffs I bought and she likes the pink rose.
She loves simple and short earrings so I made this.
Hope she likes it! (Think she did, all smiles when I gave it to her.)

A hooked earring with a pink crystal and the flower attached to it.






My sister is not a flower person so I amended the tear-dropped flower design according to her preferences.

She chosen the colour combination - Pretty compatible I think...
This blue charm is one of the new raw material i bought yesterday.
I like it...

Simple and nice...

Lastly, I attempted a design taught in the box 'Sweet Bead Jewel Box'.
One of the reason I bought the blue charm is also because I want to try this...
The blue one is my 1st attempt..Not bad for a 1st timer I think.. =D
Then I made another pair with similar charm in white for my sister as she like it too when I show her my blue pair.
I loved this....I love making the spirals clasping the round beads.
It looks so stylish...I love it!!!!

Some gifts for my frens~

Hehe..seems like Peanuto really liked the tear-drop flower earrings.... So I decided to make one for her... =D
I wore my new pair of earirngs to work today and Jess saw it...She like it too so I decided to mass produced for both of them...

This time round I decided to changed the upper hook to a more robust and stylish look...

Both packed nicely in wrappers..

Hope both of them like it....
=D

Inspiration after a jog...

Wow...after coming home after a jog...I suddenly had the inspiration to make a pair of earrings...

The idea I had in mind: the pink flower (that I bought some time back) hooked to a bunch of metal chains with small pearls linking in the metal rod that the flower is attached. -> Sweet, Not bad I think!

Along with the pink flowers, I also bought white ones then...
Think the white would have gave a elegant look..


In the process of making this pair of earring and casual flipping through the book that Yumin gave me for my Last year Birthday, I suddenly have another idea...


The metal wire surrounding the irregular stone and hooked to a sweet couple metal piece.

Hmm...I have different stone colours, Perhaps I should have used the pinkish stone which one make the colour more oustanding.

But this, Is Simple and sweet for a gal in love~




Oh ya..For the benefit of all, I had just taken 2 photos on the book that I had received for my Bday from Yumin~
I liked this book...some of the simple metal folding, designs are shown in this book with step by steps pictures guide to describe the making process...wow!..I love this book!..Thanks Yumin!!!

~My Recently made earrings~


These are my essential tools that are needed whenever I work on my new creations...
There's the 2 tools for bending and cutting of the metal pieces and the mat the tools are placed on to prevent the beads from rolling everywhere..



Below are some of the recently made earrings at a closer look...
I love the pearl ones....simply love the 'princess look'...



That's the 1st pair of pearl earrings I made using the small pearls...
The small pearls surrounds the ribbon with the 2 chains extended from it. 1 chain attaching a crystal pink butterfly while the other a pink irregular stone. Overall, it gives a very sweet feeling~
~So sweet~





This is the 2nd pair that I attempted with the small pearls...
A bigger crystal butterfly is attached above the ring of small pearls and 2 chains with similar length extend from it.
This is a simple pair of earrings that give a stylish with a tinge of sweet look...
~One of my all time FaV~

I made this pair for my cousin with her choosing the raw material (heart, ribbon & ...) with her design in mind and some input on my side...

It's another sweet earrings just nice for young ladies like her....




This is another pair of earrings I made recently as a gift.
This unique hook is for the ladies out there that doesn't have a ear hole and would like to wear earrings.

This is my classic big pearls earrings design...
~Simple and Classy~

I had also loaded several pairs of earrings I had made since I started this hobby...
Hope you all love them as much as I do...

My 1st TWO additons to my personal collection...

Thanks to my friend, Yumin~
Still rememeber the 1st time when she brought me to People Park Complex to get all the basic stuffs. She guided me where to get the beads, the crystals, the tools and metal pieces.
With her long experience in this hobby, she is able to tell which shop has the best item or most affordable prices.
I spent like over 100bucks after the 1st trip...
That night I started making my very 1st own earring:

A pair of tear dropped rainbow coated crystal with soft metallic net ribbon.

Simple and nice that can suits all occasion.


SiMplY LuV them!!!




Wow then making craze wouldn't go away and i started making the my 2nd piece for my younger sister.

A pair of star crystal attached to 2 metal chain of different length with a tiny crystal on each chain.
Different shade of blue crystals were used int his combination as my sister loved blue!
A pair of simple and elegant earrings that can go well with either casual or classy occasion.
