Earrings For A Blue Lover

These earrings are for a family friend who I think loves anything blue! I used howlite turquoise, garnet delicas and amethyst iris seedies for the beaded beads. She's a french hook wires kind of girl and am glad she doesn't ave allergies on any metals. They will come with a matching ring that is still in the making process. Hope to give them to her on or before Valentines Day.
Got a call yesterday morning from SIL, asking if I wanna go in Des Moines with her & MIL on Saturday for a lil shopping spree... this time, it's for MIL's upcoming birthday! We already know what Mom wants, and might as well take her to the shops where she can choose her gifts personally - a stand mixer (we're eyeing a big kitchenaid mixer with all the bells & whistles) and a pasta maker/machine. To complete our day, SIL also scheduled a spa massage somewhere in the city - now, that' a real treat... don't you think?
Life is too short, and before you know it, it's gone... so enjoy it to the fullest everybody!

  2. Love the earrings, can't wait to see the matching ring - I am a blue girl too.
    I LOVE LOVE LOVE my kitchen aid stand mixer, and it has a pasta maker attachment, which is great too. I use it all the time, and it's 13 years old now (was a wedding gift). Have a fun time shopping!
