In amongst all the madness that is currently my life, I have managed to actually make something – *gasp*!
I am currently packing up to move, and my husband Nick and I have bought a van. We’re going to convert it to a camper and go travelling around Oz for a while!
So, my posts here will be few and far between over the coming months 
Anyways, more on that later; back to the shiny things.
I got a parcel of Cubic Zirconia beads the other day, and decided to go minimalist with them. Since I’m going to be travelling, I’d like to be able to have a versatile array of jewellery without too much bulk.
I decided to wrap the beads in a simple anti-tarnish silver to add a loop to the top so I can slip them on and off of a chain – or even onto silver earrings in pairs!
Here are some that I’ve made…
I kinda like the thought of being able to wear just one, or a bunch of different gems and charms all at once!
Of course, you can slip pairs of gems onto earrings or earwires as well, just like this…
I made sure to make myself a pair of spiral earrings to take with me on my travels – I’ve somehow lost my original pair!
I got these from Artbeads – from their Cubic Zirconia beads section. I think my faves are the amethyst ones above.
Hope everyone’s Christmas prep is going well (in this house it’s all “Christmas, what’s that??”).
