Get Your Bling On!
One of my earring wire clients over on Etsy has the coolest, most dazzling crystal earrings on the block! They totally ROCK!
Perfect for Valentine's Day (did you get that subtle hint there all you guys!?!), JillerysJems on Etsy has got the most colorful crystal earrings, necklaces and bracelets you could ever imagine.
Sparkling and stunning designs are what make JillerysJems stand out - her designs just pop! She has a real knack for putting colors together that compliment each other and the way the crystals shine in her designs is amazing!
My fav's right now - being it's close to Valentine's Day - are these pink cluster earrings (featured here on our Shel's Jewelry Supplies Mini-Swirl Earring Wires). These are so beautiful and elegant - perfect way to catch that special someone's eyes on your Valentine's date - don't you think?
So, hop on over and check out JillerysJems shop on Etsy and put your shades on 'cause these gems out shine all the rest!
Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and all things that Sparkle!

The Cat's Outta The Bag!!
Okay - here's the scoop. I love pearls. I mean I REALLY love them! (As if you didn't know!) I love to touch them, see their fantastic lustrous finish, feel how cool and smooth they feel in my hands,...yep,...I'm obsessed, let me tell you! I love them so much that I attended the Gemological Institute of America and got a Pearls Diploma in them saying "Shelly Knows - And Really Loves - Pearls!"I like to hand knot them in non-traditional ways, put them in designs with silver, gold, leather - you name it. I like to wear them with everything from my jeans to my dress-up jeans (I don't really get 'dressed-up"!), and I think they're the most amazing gemstone ever!
My quote (aside from my very over used motto of 'Peace, Love and Pearls, Baby!') is "I don't think there's a pearl I've met that I haven't fallen in love with." That's true! Each one is unique and special, stand alone beautiful, one-of-a-kind, like no other; dreamy! It's okay to drool. I drool all the time just taking photos of these gorgeous little creatures!Metaphysically, pearls represent purity, faith, charity, innocence, focus, spirituality and wisdom. Pearls are the preferred gemstone of Queens, (and princesses, too!), at weddings and as handed down heirloom jewelry. Pearls are believed to bring about wisdom, protect the wearer from harm while at sea, encourage open, heart to heart communications and connections and to allow you to see the 'good' parts of yourself,...enabling you to love yourself more! Pearls are, quite simply, astonishing!
I guess this should really have been my blog post for June, since the Pearl is June's birthstone, but I just couldn't wait. I was reading this great article over on Etsy by Johnny B. Truant about how you have to tell stories with whatever it is you're selling and was inspired to write up this little bit to tell you how much pearls are loved - at least by me, anyway! To tell you that pearls are my story. Well, part of my story at least.
So, what's my purpose, focus, point of this whole ramble? One thing the article pointed out was that our entire lives are stories. Each individual moment is a tid-bit, a morsel, a speck and a pinch of our whole, complete and amazing story. Maybe each and every single second isn't worth being documented, written or blogged about, video taped or recorded, but some moments are. And, when we find things we're passionate about, these stories should come easily for us. (doesn't always happen that way,..but hey,...we can dream, right?!)
I'm writing this to encourage you all to challenge yourself a bit and write a part of your story. Now, the other article I read today on Etsy was about a 'challenge' (an assignment really) of how you had to tell your story in 6 words. They had to make sense, they had to make up a complete sentence and they had to be true to you and tell your story. (You can tell that I have failed miserably at this second one - to say the absolute least!) Okay - so now, here's your challenge from me,....go ahead and post 6 words (or a whole paragraph!) and tell me a bit about you - your story! I want you to think about your life and if you had to choose bits and pieces to write about,...what would your story be? I bet it comes a lot easier than you think! Give it a try! 
Until Next Time, Peace, Love and Stories (about pearls!!) LOL!!
Cheers,

P.S. The pics in the blog post are: Pearls purchased at the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show last year; Some of my designs using gorgeous pearls; The Tree House my hubby and son built at my sis and bro-in-laws cabin; The historical library in my hometown where I'd go to read books as a little kiddo along with the Route 66 sign in the forefront (Route 66 was the 'main drag' in town!); and a pic of me,....before I was the "pearl girl" that I am today! So see, I bet you have a story,.......why not share a tiny slice of it?

"Re-Brewed" Delights!!
What better gift for "Beer Loving Enthusiasts" and "Funky Jewelry Lovers" can there be? These unique and well thought out earring designs are not only great conversation pieces, they look great for everyday wear, too. And, they're lightweight, they go with just about any outfit and what a clever way to 'recycle' your beer caps! Now that's wise!! My other fav's are the Porter Beer-Rings because their shape reminds me of sea shells on the beach,...some place I'm likley to be sipping a cold brew!
Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and Fun and Funky Earrings!

Treasures Galore!
You should really check out these shops - they have some awesome items that would be perfect for gift giving this holiday season - especially for your family and friends who already have absolutely everything and you never have any idea what to get them - these items will be a hit!
And, as you're gearing up for the holidays and since Thanksgiving is just around the corner, remember that tomorrow is Veteran's Day.
Please be sure to thank all those who have served or are serving our country, providing the opportunity for us all to live the lives we live today!! And, please remember all the men and women (and their families) who have given the ultimate sacrifice with their lives for our freedom,.....words cannot express my gratitude!
Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and Good Finds, Great Freedoms and Wonderful Lives!!
Cheers,
Good Things!!
Kristin, (aka - LoveArtWorks) has included my Silver Petal Pearl Swirl post earrings in her treasury along with several other Etsy Project Embrace Team member shops and their lovely items.I encourage you to check out all the lovely shops in this treasury. Some of the shops even have sections, like mine does, where you can purchase certain items marked "TEAMEPE" and a portion of the proceeds goes to help with a cancer charity - so it's shopping for a cause and it feels great!!
Have a Great Sunday and Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and All Things Good!!

Green with Envy!
Ooohhhh,...I'm loving these gorgeous Green, Vintage Inspired, Lucite earrings from LilyLeighs!! They're oh so HOT - don't you think?!!
They were created using earring wires from my Shel's Jewelry Supplies shop on Etsy! (Thank You Karter!!)
These fab earrings are perfect for all the great fall styles out right now. We can definitely see these lucsious green beauties paired with a striking camel colored coat, cream scarf and lace-up boots (for that super Army look everyone's tapping into) providing you with a very polished, vintage inspired and romantically bold fall and winter staple in your wardrobe!
They have also been featured in this Etsy Treasury - Go Check It Out!!
Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and I'm Green with Envy!!
Cheers,
~Shel~
