Dolly Mixture Set

Disclaimer:  No copyright infringement is intended.  These are my own interpretations of various sweets and candy using various beads.  Nothing in the Sweet Tooth collection is edible.  Please try to refrain from eating!

This is the Dolly Mixture Set:
Dolly Mixture Set
This collection is all about interpretation, so forgive me if they don't look EXACTLY like a bag of Dolly Mixtures.
Dolly Mixture Necklace
 There's a good mixture of bead types anyhow.  You've got resin donuts, glass ovals, cubes and cylinders, acrylic cubes and seed beads, all in a variety of Dolly Mixture colours.

Dolly Mixture Necklace
The earrings are glass "gumdrops" hanging from the resin donuts.  Nickel free earwires are used.

Dolly Mixture Earrings
 The bracelet is a mixture of all the beads on two coils of memory wire.  Please note that each set will be different as in a bag of Dolly Mixture!



If you would be interested in this set or would like me to make you something similar, please feel free to contact me at: kymberligee@gmail.com with "Dolly Mixture Set" in the subject line.

Bubble Gum Set

As a child, I loved getting a piece of gum or a gobstopper from gumball machines when I'd finished swimming.  That was what inspired the Bubble Gum set:

Bubble Gum Set
 The necklace is a simple strand of alternating pink and blue acrylic marble beads.  Simple but effective.

The earrings are the beads threaded onto a coil of ring memory wire and connected at the top by the nickel-free silver earwire.

 The bracelet is on memory wire also, so again it should fit any size wrist.

Smarties & Chocolate Eggs Set

Easter is coming up and who doesn't love unwrapping chocolate eggs?


 Multicoloured egg-like acrylic beads and silver grosgrain ribbon to tie.  Spaced between the eggs are metal smartie shaped beads inside hammered metal flowers.  New acrylic eggs are bigger than these pictured.

Smarties and Chocolate Eggs Necklace

Acrylic eggs and Smartie spacers


Smarties & Chocolate Eggs Earrings
 The earrings feature a smartie shaped bead (rainbow fluorite bead pictured) inside a hammered metal oval.  The earwires used are nickel free for anybody that has a nickel allergy. :)
Other coloured Smarties are available, so please let me know your preference upon order.



Smarties & Chocolate Eggs Bracelet


 The bracelet is on memory wire, which means it will fit any adult size wrist.  The bracelet pictured is a mixture of foil acrylic "egg" beads, rainbow fluorite "smarties" and sparkling glass "smarties".

Please note that all sets will look different from this one pictured, as I use a random mix of eggs & smarties.

Sweet Tooth Competition [CLOSED]

To celebrate the launch of my very first collection, I'm giving away a one-of-a-kind set that will never be made by me again.  It's a mixture of new and upcycled, semi-precious and non-precious beads. It's called the Milk and Honey Set:

Milk and Honey Set

Milk and Honey Necklace



Let's start with the earrings;
Milk and Honey Earrings
 Hung from gold plated earwires are white diamond twisted glass beads and glass "honeycomb" beads.






Pendant
The necklace features a beautiful glass pendant that I received in a mix bag of beads.  There are oval and round transparent amber coloured glass beads.  On either side of those are small milky coloured glass beads that were donated to me.  They used to be glass pearls whose coating had badly chipped.  There are also 6 flat oval mother-of-pearl beads.



Hanging from either side are 2 lines of topaz seed beads and between them a line of mixed white beads that I also received in the mix bag.  Leading up to the gold plated curb chain are donated acrylic pearls (the same ones used on the Serenity Necklace) and spaced between them are more topaz seed beads.

Sweet Tooth Collection

I'm about to have a very busy day!
I know I've been away a long time and I didn't get around to posting the other new jewellery that I have (I will get around to it I swear!), but I'm hoping that what I'm about to unveil will make up for it.

To celebrate the Spring Equinox, I am proud to launch my very first collection, inspired by my sweet tooth.  Throughout the day I will be posting pictures and information about the collection I call my...


To promote the collection, I will also be running a competition to win a one-of-a-kind set which I'll be telling you more about in my next post.
Have your dentist on standby as we delve into the realm of the sweet!
