Make Me Monday:

Pearl-irious Weekend


Saturday was a fun day for me. I had time to make lots of new jewelry for my collection and also to work with one of my favorites-faux pearls. I like using faux-pearls because they don't take away from the natural supply of pearls in the sea. These particular pearls, like many, are made in China...where glass beads dipped and coated several times in pearl film to simulate the lustre of natural pearls.

I decided that the Ecru and Pinks colored faux pearls that I was working with looked best with gold plated findings, so I beaded up these new pairs for my capitolagirl.etsy.com shop:


Happy Monday!

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
