The crystal (glass) pear jewels show here are just some of the pretty teardrop gems I have available in my shop right now. They’re easy to use – as simple or complex as you want. Stay tuned over the days coming up, I’m going to share examples of how I’ve used them 🙂
And if you’re thinking hey, it’s the end of the year, practically, so maybe there’s a sale? Yes. There is. Mention this blog post when you order, anytime between now and midnight on December 31, 2020 – and you can take advantage of my BOGO sale. Buy one pair, and get a pair free. Just click on the pic to go straight to jewels in my shop!
The fine print is that this sale is limited to supplies on hand. So if you have a particular color in mind, you might not want to wait 🙂
Save money – and make yourself some fabulous DIY jewelry for the new year!
Of course if we’re thinking of Christmas jewelry (and I certainly am) – then emerald green is the next color in my Christmas palette. Plus I love emerald green. It’s so rich!
(Click here, or on picture, to find jewels in my shop!)
The emerald glass jewels shown here are just some of the shapes I have available right now – in golden brass or silver settings (antiqued patina brass settings are available too). The wonderful thing about these jewels – well one of the wonderful things – is that it’s so easy to create pendants and earrings, using the prong settings. Add jump rings and a chain, or earwires – and you have a lovely piece of jewelry.
When you want to make Christmas presents for your besties or women in your family – and you’re short on time – these styles can be really handy!
And right now they’re on sale – buy one pair and get one free. Another BOGO sale for Christmas! This offer is limited to supplies on hand, and it’s good through midnight on Monday, December 7, 2020.
She’ll love the jewels!

P.S. A little “plus” – clear crystal, and golden brass? You know this is going to look great year-round. Christmas necklace today – and great with a cotton sundress a few months down the road!
Yes, red is a Christmas color. That’s one of the reasons we’re looking specially at red teardrop jewels right now. But red’s gorgeous year-round and flattering to most people – that’s another (good) reason to keep it in mind.

And hey, just for a little extra incentive – mention this blog post when you buy, and you get a second pair of jewels (or pendant) free! The best kind of BOGO – useful *right now*. Limited to supplies on hand, and good through midnight on Monday, November 23, 2020.
Do it yourself jewelry for gifts, for friends, for customers. This is a great Christmas gift idea!
Of course these earrings wouldn’t have to be (just) for Christmas. They look good and you’ll wear them anytime. But they feel more Christmas-y because of the vivid red glass jewels. You know I think using jewels in prong settings, and adding chain for movement and texture, is a fine way to make earrings 🙂
Just to show you what I mean:
Naturally you could use any color or shape glass jewels. It’s just that the red is so pretty – and appropriate – this time of year!
Do it yourself jewelry. Make Christmas gifts they’ll love. And save money. See, this is a great Christmas idea!
Okay, first, these are not just “Christmas earrings” or pendants. Emerald green is one of the most flattering colors you can choose, especially if it’s for a gift and you don’t know the person’s favorite color. Emerald is easy to wear, it doesn’t have sallow or yellow undertones, which can be tricky. So when in doubt? Emerald, or maybe turquoise, are super choices. And we just happen to have both those colors in this DIY earring design idea 😉
You’ll notice I’m using one of my favorite “tricks” (it’s not really) – combining opaque glass cabochons (the vintage aqua ovals) with faceted sparkling glass – the emerald green octagons. It’s just another example of “everything doesn’t have to be matchy-matchy”. And by accident (I didn’t notice until I was actually taking the pics!) I have them in two different color settings – patina brass for the emerald, and golden raw brass for the ovals.
You’re not supposed to do that – combine different color settings and all. Well darn. Why not try it?
Really I was just playing with stones on my worktable, and getting a few new pics. Then I happened to place these together – and love them! Christmas colors of vivid red and emerald green, and a combination of the opaque smooth jewels and faceted emerald rounds – these totally work and they’re just so, well, so Christmas!
And if you order the cherry red ovals, you can send me a “note to seller” and request a pair of the emeralde green rounds – for free! Obviously it’s only while supplies last, and only for a few days – till midnight on October 30, 2020. But hey, what a cool Christmas earring idea!
These clear glass heart jewels are one of my very favorites – and I just got a new supply. These are vintage, so the supply isn’t endless – I was thrilled to get more! And the quality is terrific. Let’s just put it right out there – these are Christmas presents without having to do any work 🙂
And yes, these are wonderful for pendants and earrings year-round. And we haven’t even talked (yet) about how perfect they are for brides. But right now? Christmas is coming. Make it easy on yourself. Your besties, your relatives, your customers – they will all love these.
I meant to post this earlier and I think my brain went away or something. It’s a simple DIY earring design idea – with a bit of sparkle, and a bit of Christmas green – great for holiday jewelry!
Of course you can use your favorite colors, and play with different shapes too. The basic idea is that you can mix colors and shapes and create some very fun earrings!
And as always – saving money on your jewelry and making Christmas gifts is a great year-round idea 😉
