THINKING OF HOME

 

Sterling Silver Aqua Blue Chalcedony Handmade Dangle Orchid Earrings

A little fun fact about me: I grew up on an Orchid farm.  So every time I see an orchid, I think of home. In my teens I was constantly surrounded by the beauty of the majestic flower known as the Orchid. It's funny, when you're constantly surrounded by such beauty, you take it for granted.  Being away for so many years has given me an appreciation for the flower.  When I recently stumbled upon some orchid components, I just had to make something with them.

  

This is a pair of sterling silver earrings feature wire wrapped Aqua blue Chalcedony beads paired with a fresh water pearl.  Each earring features a orchid flower.  Simple and elegant.

You can add these orchids to your garden of jewels by picking them up in my etsy shop.  You can visit them shop at www.LuvAlisa.com.

CREATIVE KITTY!

Pink Kitty Cat Crystal Lampwork Handmade Necklace

I have a tendency to buy cute beads then figure out what to do with them. This piece is a prime example of my horrible habit of doing just that. Several years ago I found these cute kitty glass beads that I absolutely fell in love with. I purchased some and then stashed them away for a rainy day because I couldn't think of a creative way to use them. I stumbled across the beads recently and decided I needed to change that, thus this necklace was born.

This cute necklace features a glass kitty resembling Hello Kitty dangling in the center of an affirmation pendant accented by crystals and a fresh water pearl.  If you wish to adopt this little cute kitty, she's currently available in my etsy shop that can be found at www.LuvAlisa.com. 

THINK PINK!!

Pink Wire Wrapped Rose Quartz Pendant with Dove Handmade Necklace 

October is breast cancer awareness month, so I've decided to feature a pink item from my shop.  

When I sat down on Sunday to create new items for my shop like I usually do, I ran into a little thing I call beaders block. Nothing I did was really working to my liking. Anyone else suffer from it?  I did manage to create this beautiful piece.  The pink in the rose quartz just called to me. Paired the wire wrapped pink rose quartz stone with a cute silver bird charm and this necklace was born. 

This handmade necklace is currently up for grabs in my etsy shop.  Feel free to visit the shop at www.LuvAlisa.com.  

SIMPLY LOVE....

 

Handmade Bronze Love Crystal Bead Bracelet

Spent my entire weekend scrambling.  For the last several weeks I have been keeping busy by making necklaces and earrings to donate to my friends ministry Love Your Neighbor located in Pago Pago, American Samoa.  I am happy to report that the project is finally complete. Please check out my friends non-profit at Samoalyn.org. 

With the little time I did have, I was able to come up with a couple of new pieces for my shop. I have been staring at this little "love" connector bead for weeks and finally came up with this simple bronze bracelet.  The bracelet features blue and crystal beads meshed in with bronze chain.  The bracelet secures with a lobster clasp.  If you're interested in purchasing this bracelet it's currently for sale in my etsy shop, which can be found at LuvAlisa.com.
