Jewelry Ideas Using Turquoise, Page 3
Angkor Earrings
These earrings were handcrafted using turquoise beads, white glass beads, and silver filler beads. The drops were attached to the exotic looking frames with wire.
Long Colours Necklace
This necklace is made from handmade rope and tassel, turquoise stones, pebblestones, shell, wood beads, and metal wire.
Blue Rain Necklace
I’ve created this necklace using African cream disk trade beads, cream coral beads, and West African lost wax brass beads (basket shape). To add color to this piece I’ve added blue turquoise beads and antique gold Bali style spacers. Completing the necklace is a 22mm oxidized copper ring as the toggle clasp. This necklace measures […]
Nesting Bird Necklace
I created this necklace using Vintaj Brass Co. chain. In a few spots around the chain, I attached wire-wrapped red Czech glass beads for accents. The focal I used is a pewter bird bead from Mamacita Beadworks. I used an eye pin, and off the bottom hook, dangled a brass wire nest that I stuffed […]
Hawaiian Bridesmaid Necklace
This set is made from chunky turquoise and orange coral pieces strung on 24k gold wire and gold fittings. I made and wore this necklace as the maid of honor for my friend’s wedding in Hawaii.
Turquoise And Brown Bracelet
I made this for my sis who loves the combination of turquoise and brown. This is my first beading project and she loved it. I used strechy cord and a collection of assorted beads from Darice for this. I secured the cord with two knots and an overhand knot. I used Hypo cement to secure […]
Carnelian And Turquoise Necklace
I use to shy away from turquoise only because of the way the pieces were set. They were all the same. It is such a beautiful stone and such a compliment to many other stones, I couldn’t help myself. This combination reminds me of a sunset walk on the beach, cool waves and warm skies. […]
Mix and Match Reversible Beaded Necklace
I had a few larger beads and I did not know what to use them for (my necklaces are usually more delicate). One day the inspiration came in a store catalog–the idea of combining one strand of large beads and six strands of small beads. It is wearable top side down or up. It can […]
Green Goddess Earring
These are soooo glamorous, a lightweight but eye catching long pair of earrings, great for a special ball or gala occasion. The hoop earwires and heart shaped chandelier hangers are shaped and hammered from wire. At the top hangs a chrysophase mini nugget, next swing the gold heart shapes from fine chain. Under the hearts […]
Mixed Stone Earrings
These earrings were made using a mix of stones: turquoise, jasper and sodalite. I connected them using 18 gauge silver wire. I left a large loop on the end to add 3 hammered pieces of 18 gauge silver wire. I put a small loop at the end of each of the hammered wire pieces to […]
Turquoise And Copper Vines Necklace Set
This set came to be because of a wedding commission. I wanted to practice the tiara with copper before going with silver, and then decided it would make a great choker! The stones are Turquoise briolettes that I wired together as flowers with a Mookaite center. The leaf accents are also Mookaite. I used multiple […]
Beaded Bead Three Strand Necklace
This necklace came about because I absolutely LOVE the size 11 seed bead mix I purchased at my local bead shop. I also learned to bead a bead, using these tiny beads. It’s very labor-intensive, but really worth it. The focal glass bead is beaded with these no. 11 beads, as well as four other […]
Woodland Brooch
I started off with some Lacey’s Stiff Stuff as the bead embroidery foundation. I dyed it to a suitable shade of black. I had a beautiful African turquoise cabochon which I had stashed away, waiting for the right moment of creativity to spark. I sewed different semi precious stones around the cabochon, choosing muted tones that would […]
