Green wedding earrings

I didn't really believe I could make earrings for a wedding - natural pieces of jewelry tend to be more ethnic than that but my friend again helped me to discover more of the possibilities and what I can do. She has been talking to me about her need for a nice pair of earrings for a wedding but I tried to avoid this task for lack of confidence in being able to make something that can work with a cocktail dress.

Well, in the end she succeeded and here is the result with the matching hairband. Actually I am happy she convinced me! We agreed on using my (and as it turned out, hers too) favourite mineral: tiger's eye combined with glass beads and a piece of shell.

The happy face in the end was well worth it!

Kenya

Tonight we saw another great movie (hey, I haven't told you about movies for such a long time now!) called Haevnen, directed by Susanne Bier from Denmark. It depicts two different worlds and mentalities collide, in the end of the film producing a winner of these. The African scenes were shot in Kenya.

So in honour of this Oscar-winning movie I call today's necklace the Kenya necklace.

As just another piece of natural jewelry made by me, the main material is wood, mixed with tiger's eye. Can't help it, it is one of my favourite minerals I guess. Ladies, because I know many of us like pink, not only the bigger beads are pink but if you look at it closely you will find some more tiny little pink cubes hiding there like little candies to put a smile on our face and some color in the world.

Golden sunset

This is the first piece that was made using one of the drilled wooden bits we prepared last weekend. I hope therefore that not only its golden shades but the love also shines through it.

I took the photo in the delicate light of the sunset in the house's garden in the Hungarian countryside. Everything is gold here: the shade of the wooden piece (achieved by a special spray), the color of the shell, the golden brown shades of the tiger's eye pieces, and the wonderful natural lights too.

This is truly a piece of natural jewelry to be put on sale soon.

Hello, goodbye!

Life is nothing more than a series of changes. Life evolves this way. Nothing remains unchanged, not even our oceans, our mountains. Things come and go. People come and go. And when they go, you say goodbye.

Sometimes you don't even realize they go, they are just gone when you raise your head and look around. Did they leave something behind or is it just the smoke of their cigarette still lingering in the air?

It's relieving to say goodybe in the way that you can still leave something behind or give something in return for the moments of your life that you have passed together. It's important to give and not just to take.

And then, it might even turn out that the goodbye was just a hello.

Eye of the tiger

This was a really hard day - again. But coming home and starting to work on a new piece is always a relief and I feel relaxed - as much as it is possible in the given circumstances.

But the one I show you today was not made today. Actually I have already worn it and I was very happy when someone recognized the mineral at first glance: tiger's eye! I came through this mineral at the shop and loved it so decided to make something out of it for myself, as a present or such.


Not much to say about it, simple design again, very light wear, totally unnoticeable to the wearer. And of course, the coin is there!
