Homemade Jewellery

Jewellery, what girl doesn't love a statement piece to match your outfit? I know I do, and when I returned home to Cambridge yesterday, I noticed my Foster Mum had been getting a little crafty after attending a jewellery making class. Jewellery can really bring an outfit to life, especially a statement piece, which are really popular at the moment. Im loving these wire and stone rings she made, the colours really stand out.
Which one is your favourite? I'm loving the turquoise one with brown detail.

A variation of colours, stones and crystals

Spoilt for choice!
These rings are the perfect summer accessory. Whether you want to brighten up your summer outfit, or add some statement pieces for a night out. These rings draw instant attention to your hands. All you need now is a fresh manicure, and you're good to go.


Pendants, Bracelet, Rings and Earrings.

Not only has she been making rings, but check out this statement turquoise bracelet and earrings. These matching pieces really compliment each other and most of all, work with almost any outfit. I'd definitely  wear the bracelet during summer. Paired with a pair of denim shorts, fresh white top, and not to forget that glowing tan, a blue beaded bracelet is all you need to top off the outfit.

Here is my favourite piece from the small collection my foster mum has made, isn't it gorgeous?!

Check out the spiral detail

Crystal Detailed Pendant

This crystal pendant with wire detail is amazing! I was amazed by the detail the second I laid eyes on it With the wire wrapped around the crystal, which has shades of purple inside, this statement piece is great with any outfit. If i had to team this with an outfit, I'd wear it with a plain white dress, drawing all the attention to the necklace. What do you think of the detail? How would you wear this necklace?


Why not opt for a little something more delicate? This pearl necklace is perfect for a special occasion. 


This delicate fresh water pearl necklace, made with bead cord was finished off with a nice touch of a 'hand made' attached accessory. If you are not planning on wearing it yourself, then why not try make one as a gift for someone? After all they do say hand made gifts are made with love.


This delicate piece would look great with a cream or white shirt for a smart / casual look. What do you think? Would you wear this necklace?

Some lovely statement pieces here, which shows that hand made pieces can look expensive when a little love and care have been put into making them.
