Hearts and Special Components

I got a few things done today...posted more items in the shop... a few wire wrapped bead components.
These are great to use in one of a kind jewelries because each component is individually & uniquely wrapped/twisted

They can be used in rings or pendants or however else you wanted...like these.... add a bail on top and hang on a chain...and you have a pendant...

wrap it on a ring finding and you have yourself a glamorous ring...

I also started getting ready for Valentine's celebrations. I created this cute digital collage sheet which is perfect for the happy hearts day....

The hearts are 1.5 x 1.5 inches and each one has a different design. Very cute for your cards, tags, stickers, earrings and so much more. Just print them in whatever paper you prefer and they're ready to use in your creative endeavors! I love collage sheets!

Bangle Settings

I noticed that bangles are all the rave lately so I decided to stock some really cute bangle settings in the shop...here's what I made with one with the round setting...

I made the applique flower cabochon and set it in the bangle setting. Pretty cute and the colors are easy to match with clothes....

and here's another...

Here's what the setting looks like with out a cabochon set in it....

New Crafty Supplies for the New Year

Happy New Year everyone! I've started stocking up the online shop with new and oh so cute crafty supplies. Right now, I'm concentrating on having a complete line of jewelry making supplies, which will include special kits with tutorials.  Once I complete that then I can expand and have other supplies for clay and felt crafts...

Actually sooo many ideas for the shop this year and I hope to reveal them all here in my blog as I go along with it. I'm trying to really get serious about this home based business which means getting strict on the record keeping. So far, I've managed to write up some plans and am doing a pretty good job writing all the expenses down. I have also set up my craft room...although, its still quite a mess in there. I do need a few more cabinets for organization, some small tables and nice comfy chair to complete the setup. But, so far its usable and it gives me a separate space to do my work in. (Pictures of the craft room to follow!)

So, today, I wanted to share a few new supplies that are available and have been posted. I won't be posting it on my etsy since I don't want to have to pay for the listings. But, they are available on my FB page. If you are interested to buy, just send me a list and I will bill via paypal!!!

Lots of nice settings....perfect to make your own pendants from polymer clay.... 

You can check all of these out at my FB account - http://www.facebook.com/media/albums/?id=100003218757328. The albums should be viewable becasue i have them as public...but do add me up to keep updated - www.facebook.com/earthlyjewelsbeads

Merry Christmas

I've been away from blogland for quite some time! My last post was waaay back in October and I really apologize for that. I got so busy once Christmas season hit, that I wasn't able to come back here and update you guys....

Here are a few highlights....
in November, I joined a bazaar at the Rockwell tent in  Makati....

I was part of an online gift guide in Working Mom Magazine...

Had a Christmas ornament swap...this is what I made...

These are what I got....

Hubby went to the US for a month...and came home with lots and lots of goodies including a new camera for me....

and lots of other crafty goodies....pictures to follow!!!

Had my hair colored....I like it...

My Charley doggy had his first Christmas with lots of presents...This one is his new backpack...

He got to play a run around a lot...at the end of the day he rested and dreamed again of his first Christmas day ever....

Well...that's a few things that have been going on...

Right now, I'm busy making plans for the New Year. Listing down my resolutions and my goals for Earthly Jewels Beads.

That's all for now, though....I'll be back again soon! Hope you all had a great Christmas season!!!
