One of my BFF's asked me to make her some custom jewelry for a wedding she's going to in Paris! It's so wonderful when you can design from the heart for someone that's more than just a friend, but really like a sister to me. She's been there to support me through miles of life changes and so this set of jewelry is supremely special.
Her dress is a guava color - which I say is like a tropical pinky orange with clear A/B crystals in a cracked ice pattern at the bottom of the skirt. It's a strapless dress, so I wanted to make a huge statement while keeping the necklace light and not klunky. :) Thus enter Swarovski crystal into my life... and my infatuation with big bling!
I created a triple strand bracelet, chandelier earrings and coordinating necklace featuring crystal and padparadascha Swarovski crystals. I love how the light reflects off the bicones and crystal cubes. I'm developing an even greater love crystals and formal jewelry!
