Half Term Jewellery Making


This is me with my niece Chloe earlier today
after having a lot of fun making some jewellery together.

We both made bracelets using a simple technique
called the ladder (or quadrant) weave.

Chloe's first one was made from 
Amazonite nuggets.


... and her next one was a mixture of
Rose Quartz and Amethyst nuggets


Both are really lovely and the heart clasp on the
second one is a gorgeous finishing touch.

My first one was made from multi-coloured
Crackled Quartz nuggets - rather fun and funky
but I'm not sure it's something I'll actually wear.


... and the second one was a mixture of
Beryl and Clear Crackled Quartz


(not forgetting the matching earrings - or
'ear-rocks' as we called them!)
Much more wearable than the other one I think.

Thanks for looking :)
