Allie

Allie is very similar to Clarissa, but has a different color stone. This is a blue/turquoise stone, wrapped with gold wire. I added three smaller aqua colored beads on the wire to just give it a little bit more flare.

The stone is hanging on a gold chain. It is also a long necklace, simple yet rad at the same time! Allie is $18, plus shipping. Email me at tallymj@gmail.com if you are interested in Allie!

Clarissa

I have been inspired by really cool stones lately. I have just been picturing the simplicity, yet the beauty in them. I found these chunky, colorful stones at the store that I had to have. Originally I had a different idea in mind of what I would make, but I am glad with what I ended up with! I took a deep pink colored stone, almost fuschia, and wrapped a little bit of gold wire around it. Then I attached it to a gold chain, and voila! (I have no idea if I spelled that right! Haha!)

Surprisingly enough, this necklace probably looks like it took 3 minutes to make, but I spent at least an hour on it! I wanted the wire to lay just right. Anyways, Clarissa is simple yet very stylish, and very eye catching! It is a longer necklace, the stone lays at the bottom of the chest bone, I am trying to say it discreetly ;o).

It is $18, plus shipping. Let me know if you are interested in Clarissa! tallymj@gmail.com

Lea

This necklace I made for my sister Lea, so I thought it was fitting to name it after her! It is a turquoise and brown necklace, that has two strands of beads woven together. To add a little extra touch, I put a silver chain to hang down with the beaded part. You could wear the chain laying flat, or weave it in to the beads as well. The great thing about this type of necklace is that I could make it in ANY colors you would like!

So... if you like what you see, but would want it in different colors, just let me know! A necklace like Lea would be $22, plus shipping. Email me at tallymj@gmail.com for more information!

Andi

Andi is a look-alike to a necklace that I made for myself to wear to a special occasion. I decided to make it as another Christmas present! I have gotten many complements when wearing my own rendition of Andi, so I thought that I would put it up and see if anyone else would like their own "Andi" look. It is an assortment of different colored Jasper stones. In between the stones I have thrown in different colored smaller beads to fill in the gaps and add a little bit more color. The beads are woven on a gold ribbon and attached with an toggle clasp. The necklace is a bit on the heavier side so if you are sensitive to weight, this might not be your choice of necklace. Andi is $23, plus shipping. Email me at tallymj@gmail.com if you are interested in ordering a necklace like Andi!

Cha-Cha

A Christmas present to remember, well hopefully! I made this necklace as a gift for someone but I just had to share it with you! I loved how "Cha-Cha" turned out! It is a mixture of many different colored beads from red, brown, gold, black, aqua, and pearl. It also has a center stone that is truly unique and one of a kind. It is a blend of brown, red, and yellowish colors. The center stone is wrapped with a little bit of gold colored wire. The necklace is finished off with a little bit of gold chain and attached with a simple hook and eye. Since "Cha-Cha" was a Christmas present, it is not for sale. But I have had someone order one just like it for $18. So if you would like me to make you one like it, just let me know! tallymj@gmail.com

Thelma has kind of an antique look, so I chose an antique name! I have to say that these beads just jumped out at me at the store, I had to have them!

It really is just a very cool necklace, that I might just have to keep for myself if it doesn't sell! Thelma is $23, plus shipping.

La-Ti-Da

"Sha la la la la la la la la la la-ti-da!" Every now and then it is good to just bust out singing at the top of your lungs! Haha! Well, now that you know that I am a complete dork, I will move on with my post and my new addition. La-Ti-Da is quite possibly my favorite necklace that I have ever made. I am really enjoying experimenting with my wire and beads. This necklace consists of three separate pendants on an 18 inch gold chain. The largest pendant is a mixture of red beads woven together. The side pendants are a cluster of pearl beads, and a cluster of turquoise colored beads.

The great part of this necklace is that it is so versatile! You could wear the red pendant ontop, the two side pendants ontop, or just be crazy and show all three! You can also take any of the pendants off the chain, because they are not attached. I am selling this necklace for $20 plus shipping. Don't forget that I can make matching earrings too! Email me at tallymj@gmail.com if you are interested in another necklace like this!
