TRUE LOVE

Bronze Rose Quartz Wire Wrapped Pendant with Cross Charm Handmade Necklace

"There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends." John 15:13 

The recent new of the events that unfolded in Libya on 9/11/2012 have been tugging on my heart  lately and it drew me back to the bible verse John 15:13.  The ultimate price one can pay is to lay down his life. Marinating on this verse made me think of the cross. I decided to create a piece symbolizing the ultimate love.

Rose Quartz is often thought of as the stone of love. Since it symbolizes love, I decided to use it as the focal point of this necklace. I wire wrapped the rose quartz stone and paired it with a small cross charm.  The cross symbolizes the ultimate price Jesus paid by laying down his life.  Jesus paid a debt he did now owe because he loved us (sinners) so much.  It truly is the ultimate sacrifice.  

This necklace is currently available in my etsy shop which can be found at www.LuvAlisa.com.     

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.

Fly Hummingbird! Fly!

Hummingbird Rose Quartz Handmade Necklace

So I've spent the last several days learning both Blogger and WeHeartIt.com  I must say I've been enjoying both.  Posted this piece on We Heart It a few minutes ago and I've been watching the heart number grow. I must say it's quite humbling when something I create can be liked by total strangers. 

I dreamed up this piece a few weeks ago after receiving a shipment of beads with these adorable hummingbirds. I've noticed that there are many people who have a fondness for birds. I admit, I love them too.  I just felt that a hummingbird would be a nice addition to my collection.  This necklace features a wire wrapped Rose Quartz pendant with a crystal accent. That paired with the hummingbird make this a very pretty but unique necklace that I know will bring happiness to someone one day. 

This hummingbird is currently looking for a home to call his own. If you wish to visit him, you can currently find him in my etsy shop that can be found at www.LuvAlisa.com. 

Angel Wings....

ANGEL WINGS MOONSTONE EARRINGS

ANGEL WINGS....

Sitting here watching the Endeavour Shuttle on TV make it's final flight around Southern California Piggy backed on top a 747 is making me feel a little teary eyed this morning.  Such a beautiful sight in the sky and just knowing this is the last flight for this machine makes everything so bittersweet. 

As I watch this flight live on TV, I thought about which piece of mine to share on my blog today and it was clear to me that it has to be these cute Angel Wing moonstone Earrings are fitting for the mood. The space shuttle reminds me of a little angel in the sky. These simple earrings are bronze in tone and feature a simple pure white rainbow moonstone gemstone.  Something fun to spice up any jewelry collection. :)

I Believe...

I Believe Handmade Citrine Necklace

Made this necklace this past weekend. I visited a bead shop recently and found a little charm with the words “I Believe,” written on it and immediately I just knew I had to pair that charm with a cross. This is the end result. The necklace also features a pretty golden yellow wire wrapped citrine bead. 

I just joined we heart it last night and this picture was my first post. To my surprise I awoke this morning and it has been hearted 90 times over night. Love that people are hearting it. :)
