An Earthy Blue Necklace

When it comes to jewelry-making, turquoise is one of the oldest materials used for decoration in the world. The simple, unadorned appeal of this ornamental stone has been mined since around 6000 B.C. and used for both carvings and jewelry. It blends the blue of the sky with the copper of the earth.

This silver necklace features a bevy of robins-egg blue turquoise rounds, betel nut tubes, brown Czech seed beads and african bone beads.

About This Blog

This blog first started as a way to share the inspiration behind jewelry making with family and friends. Next thing you know, my blogging became a hobby--complete with a logo!

In my not-so-virtual-reality, I'm a freelance technical and marketing communications consultant who spends her time doing geeky things in the high-tech industry. But my real fun comes from making jewelry, which you can find in my Etsy shop at: http://capitolagirl.etsy.com
