Tricky Colors!



I'm finding I have to play with the colors of my photos to get them to look like the actual jewelry. The carnelian beads that suspend the Hill Tribe pendant were deep red in the original photo, rather than the true red-orange. The rhodonite flower suspended from a unakite and rhodonite necklace was very intensely pink before I toned it down.I'm glad I have PhotoShop to correct the colors. Sometimes I think I spend more time getting good pictures than I spent making the jewelry.

Chains for the ears, too


I combined several base metal chains and hung them from sterling silver ear posts to create these earrings.
