DIY Jewelry for Springtime – Jonquil Yellow!

There’s something about springtime that makes me want to make (and wear!) DIY jewelry that’s pretty, you know? It’s really that simple. Pretty jewelry – pretty colors. And the lovely jonquil faceted glass stones I have in my shop right now are just that – pretty!

Jonquil glass gems, in my view, offer real advantages over other stones in the yellow color family. Jonquil is delicate, not forceful, and is actually much more flattering than, say, deep golden topaz – which can be difficult for some to wear. The softer jonquil is feminine, and easy to wear.

It’s gorgeous with many of your favorite outfits too – with greens, with sapphire, with pink. (Okay, maybe not red.) Try making some soft yellow, jonquil jewelry for yourself and for gifts – I think you’ll love it!

Diamond glass stones – the birthstone color for April – a BOGO sale!

I know, “diamond” isn’t exactly a color! But diamonds are the birthstone for April. And diamonds are fabulous of course. But hey, sometimes (lots of times) our budgets don’t necessarily include expensive gemstones. So – faceted glass “diamonds”, right?

The pic here shows just some of the faceted crystal “diamond” stones available in my shop right now. I’m probably biased, but I think these are beautiful. Since I’m not rich – I definitely prefer faceted glass “gemstones”. I think a lot of us feel that way!

And just to make these even more attractive – right now these are on sale! Buy one, get one free – one pair, or one pendant… all you have to do when you order, is tell me what freebie you want! This offer is only until Friday, March 14, 2025, and limited to supplies I have on hand – so you probably don’t want to wait.

P.S. You might want to keep in mind that crystal diamonds are fabulous for bridal and wedding jewelry. But you already thought of that!
