Published designs in Stringing {Summer}


Have you seen the Summer edition of Jewelry Stringing? It is jam packed with lots of inspiration to carry you through the summer months happily creating your own jewelry. I am honored to have 2 earring designs in this issue!


#4...As shown on page 58.
I had the best time creating these {above} earrings! I created my own faux patina on the top rose beads. (You can find these beads at my etsy shop.) Orange and Turquoise is always a pretty summer combination. I can picture these earrings paired with a white sun dress!



#2...As shown on page 58.
The earrings above are called 'Calm Seas.' The were inspired by the beach and the serenity of just being close to nature. I like to use vintage beads in my designs. I typically use uncirculated vintage beads in my designs and love mixing old and new elements together!  To find out which beads are vintage, and not as hard to find as you may think, pick up a copy of the summer issue of Stringing on newstands now.

Playing with photo effects and jewelry

I've been wanting to post all week and show you my earrings that are in the current issue of Stringing Magazine! {shown below}

The earrings are created with raw brass hammered disks, and pretty green picasso czech glass beads. When I created these spring inspired earrings I didn't have a specific design in mind!

I knew I was going to use the brass hammered disks to mimic the sun.

And then, since these earrings are for the spring season, I decided to pair the disks with green beads.

{brighter, intense look} Pin It


These beads, in different variations of greens and teals, complemented the brass disks perfectly! Then I topped them off with a smaller bronze bead. Sometimes, designs flow easily and come together just the way you had hoped!

ps...Thank you Stringing for showcasing these earrings in your spring issue!

So excited! Thank you Stringing {my heart earrings are shown on pg 2}!

Many moons ago when my boys where just babies, Stringing magazine was the very first magazine that I found to 'teach' me how to create jewelry. I'm very honored to be included in this issue of their magazine! When I received my issue yesterday in the mail, my boys (who are now teenagers) where the first ones to see my work published. :) -Roxanne Str Winter11 Toc
