I love SCARVES!!!

I love scarves!!  They are one of my favorite accessories from fall through spring.  I bought this beautiful Autumn colored scarf at Green Ink in Wickford RI. The scarf was the inspiration for these One of a Kind earrings. You can find the earrings listed at www.obtp.etsy.com

This is one of my favorite scarves. It is 3 layers each overlapping the other just a bit for a nice textured look. I duplicated the colors in these earrings for a perfect match. You can find the earrings at www.obtp.etsy.com

Do you have something you would like matching earrings for, or want "one of a kind" earrings for that special person?  I welcome custom orders. Feel free to email me tpezzullo@cox.net or visit www.obtp.etsy.com

Remember the Holidays are just around the corner and earrings make a great gift!

After the Show

Just a quick post to show 3 of the items I made after the bead show!!

BLISS... I mixed Bronze Keishi Petal Pearls and lilac Potato Pearls for a small compact cluster earring. These are a great color scheme for fall! EARTH WIND and FIRE... Faceted Ruby quartz teardrop dangles from a stack of sterling silver rope rings and a African Opal. I am happy to say these sold right after I posted them!! OTHER SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN...On the strand of Green Opal teardrops I purchased there were so many different color blends. This stone just happened to match perfectly with the African Opal. So I combined the 2 to make this beautiful casual and earthy necklace!

New Fall Jewelry!!

This is my new fall jewelry set called "Fall in New England". I used Fancy Jasper faceted rondell stones in 3 sizes, 10, 8 and 6mm. I love the multi color variation in each stone. The colors range from pale green,olive green to a dark forest green, lilac to a deep mauve and pumpkin to brick red with many shades in between. The center of the necklace holds a sterling silver tea rose surrounded by small fancy jasper rondells.

The center of the necklace holds a sterling silver tea rose surrounded by small fancy jasper rondells. The length of this necklace is 18 1/2 inch and the earrings are 1 inch from the bottom of the ear wire. Please visit http://obtp.etsy.com to see more views of this piece and more Fall Jewelry.

Cape Cod Blue

I went to Cape Cod last weekend and they have a beautiful bead store there called The Bead Emporium of Cape Cod. I was with my husband and 2 kids so needless to say I really couldn't spend as much time in there as I wanted to, but I did have enough time to buy these beautiful faceted blue jasper teardrops. They dangle from a stack of sterling silver twisted rings attached to sterling silver ear wires I made (my first ones) with a crystal quartz rondell.

I was very excited that right after I listed these on my Etsy shop somebody bought them!!

Remember sock puppets when you were a kid?

We all had our favorite comfort toy or stuffed animal when we were young. Something to cuddle up to when we were scared or just needed to take with us everywhere we went. I know my son's favorite was a John Smith figurine from the movie Pocahontas and my daughters was a little pink stuffed musical elephant. Well I found these really adorable sock puppets on ETSY.

The Willow Tree has this oh so cute and softly stripped sock puppet look at the matching bow and gadget cozy wristlet she has. Under The Willow Tree describes this Girlie monkey as a bright and cheerful monkey. It is made out of a brand new pair of socks and is stuffed with 100% polyester fiber and is extremely huggable! She has embroidered eyes and face with a lot of detail! Girlie monkey is made out of gray socks with blue, yellow, green, and pink stripes. This monkey is sewn very well by hand and by machine so it will not come apart. This monkey measures 16" from head to foot and has a 14" long tail.

This one is "Kristina the Sock Bunny" from Cuddlet It is so cute I love the colors. She is made of new cotton socks. Her fancy dress and hat are also made of socks and are fully removable. Kristina is a serious young lady and she likes books and documentaries. She loves her little brother Alex even though he is so naughty sometimes! Go to Cuddlet to see her brother Alex.
