New!! We just added these irridescent Czech Glass Buttons to our website www.specialtybeads.com!
 Our Nirvana Czech Glass Buttons are beautiful. These Glass Buttons are made in the old tradition of Czech Buttons and have a true antique feeling.
 I love the contrast of their beautiful lucious glass colors and irridescent details. Nirvana Czech Glass Buttons have beautiful cuts with an irridescent glimmer to bring you a brilliance with an old time persona in the old Czech tradition. Each Czech Glass Button is 18mm.

I’ve been having lots of fun making Jewelry for our little store in Truckee today. This Necklace and Earring set which I’ve called our Vintaj Cerulean Scroll Necklace and Earrings is super simple and so wearable.
 It features some of my favorites – Vintaj Natural Brass Findings, Vintage Bronze SilverSilk, a Swarovski Crystal, and 3 of our Botanical Bubble Design Beads .Its definitely something I’d wear often.
 I’ve also added a new category to our website www.specialtybeads.com that has a pairing of a Necklace and a pair of Earrings for a Kit. This Vintaj Cerulean Scroll Neckace and Earrings Kit is also very affordable at $29.00 for both the Necklace and Earring Kits.

Our Italian Mesh Ribbon Bracelets are so simplistic, yet so beautiful because of the shimmer of our Metallic Mesh Ribbon. They are made with our popular 1mm Italian Mesh Ribbon for a Wire Lace effect! I cut 10 strands of our 1mm Italian Mesh Ribbon to make this great bracelet, but more strands could be used for a fuller Italian Mesh Ribbon Bracelet!
Our Italian Mesh Ribbon Bracelets are made with 2 Yards of 1mm Italian Mesh Ribbon, 1 pair 7mm Sterling Silver Ribbon Ends, 2 – 6mm Sterling Silver Super Jump Rings, 1 – 9mm Sterling Silver Toggle, 1 Sterling Silver Heart Toggle, E600 glue is recommended.
Our Italian Mesh Ribbon Bracelets are also sold as Bracelet Kits!!

 We just added Rhinestone Crystal Cup Chain to our website and I made this quick and easy Rhinestone Crystal Cup Chain Bracelet! I love the beautiful Rhinestone Chain. We have it in three colors – Silver, Gold, and Copper. The Cup Chain also comes in 3 sizes – small (14pp), medium (18ss), and large (24pp). I used the medium Crystal Copper Chain for this Rhinestone Bracelet. One of the great things is that both the small and medium Crystal Chains fit into the SilverSilk Findings, so it makes it super easy and there is a great finish! The SilverSilk Ends come in Singles, Doubles, and Triples and in 4 colors so you have lots of choices. You simply insert your Rhinestone Chain into the SilverSilk Ends and squeeze closed. I added our Tierra Cast Classic Toggle (one of my favorites) with our Super Jump Rings (a must to have!) and that finished this fun bracelet. The thing I love the most about the Rhinestone Crystal Cup Chain is that it adds sparkle while keeping a rustic look!
