Seek and Ye Shall Find
Here's the story behind one of my favorite pieces. I have been working on a birthstone series. Making necklaces, bracelets, and earrings out of those birthstones that fit my style. Basically the semi-precious stones. Some stones, like amethyst and citrine were fairly easy to come by, but aquamarine gave me quite the challenge. After much searching, I found two strands of aquamarine chips. You may have noticed that most of my necklaces have a pendant or focal bead in the center, The larger piece of aquamarine I was looking for just wasn't anywhere to be found, leaving my birthstone series incomplete. Finally, one day when I was volunteering at Global Gifts, I was admiring some tree pendant necklaces. I studied them closely, and realized that I could make one. So I didn't need that elusive bigger piece of aquamarine after all. I set to work, and ended up with a necklace that was worth all the searching and pondering.

I not only enjoyed making it part of a set to match one of my favorite jackets, but also used it as a model. I love tree of life pendants, and now I know how to make them! 12 People Reached 8 Engagements Boost Post 22 2 Comments 1 Share Like Comment Share Comments Most Relevant Comment as For the Kids Creations
