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. 

You are Special...

 Bronze Carnelian & Crystal Bird Cross Handmade Necklace

"Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?" (Matthew 6:26)

Yesterday I sat and sat staring at an array of beads on my bead board trying to figure out how to create something unique.  I felt as if I had an artistic block, trying to think of someone special to make. I picked up this bird pendant and something lead me to pair it with a cross. The result was this simple bird necklace being born.  

When I took a step back and studied what I had created the bible verse Matthew 6:26 just jumped into my thoughts. Always remember that you are special in God's eyes. No matter how insignificant you feel, you truly do matter. 

Aside from the bird and the cross charm, this necklace also features orange carnelian and crystal beads. Simple beauty. It is currently for sale in my etsy shop which can be found at LuvAlisa.com. 

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. :)
