Glass bead bracelets

If you have a large group of family and friends, I’m sure you understand that the holidays can be expensive. We had a grab bag for about a year, and have now gone back to our normal tradition of going broke. I realize I don’t have to buy gifts for each and every one of them, but when it comes time for our holiday party and we’re all exchanging gifts, I can’t help but feel guilty if I bought for one but not the other. I also can’t help but feel cheap if I buy for no one. I’ve found a way to make beautiful, yet cheap gifts for all the jewelry lovers in my life.

Natural jewelry cleaner

"Here’s what you’ll need: a medium sized bowl, white vinegar, a lemon and water."

If you’re a jewelry lover like myself, you’re sure to notice that it becomes dirty quite quickly, and then looks terrible if you want to wear a piece that has particles of dirt and who knows what else stuck to it. I personally do not trust the commercial jewelry cleaners on the market. For one, it smells terrible. I honestly do not want to clean my thousand dollar necklace in a concoction of who knows what, and then have my neck smelling like disgusting chemicals for the next week. I swear, I could wash the jewelry repeatedly after cleaning it, subjecting it to hard water damage, and it still smells like the nasty chemicals I used to clean it.

Ok, maybe not you, but for me it works every time. There is something about a shiny piece of metal wrapped around my body that just makes me smile. Jewelry makes me feel feminine, so when a man gives me a piece of jewelry, I feel as if they recognized my feminine side. Read more about The way to a woman’s heart

Forbidden Fruit

Truly Desirable

For many people the term “Forbidden Fruit” brings to mind religious or naughty connotations. In the jewelry world, however, the term refers to rhinestone encrusted fruit, vegetables, mushrooms, beehives, butterflies and caterpillars. These are lovely designs that are without much of history behind them; not because it isn’t there but because it just isn’t known.
