Tuesday Treasuries, June Jumps In

Treasuries are showcase lists of Etsy goodies from various shops. They are artfully put together by members of the Etsy community. As always, I am thrilled to have been included. Thank you!


By chance, a couple of my creations have found themselves in 3 very Irish treasuries this week. 

Thankyou to Lucie of Lucie's Fantasy Glass for this eclectic mix 'Auld Irish Artisans', and for including my Connemara marble pendant with these wonderful picks. I love the melding of the traditional with more modern designs. If you need a dose of cuteness, check out those swans with their fluffy chicks!

It;s not quite the same thing as a treasury, but the same 'Landscape' pendant also made it into this Celtic list, 'Irish Celtic' on the Auld Irish Team's page.  This is a group of Etsy sellers who are either Irish or simply lovers of all things Irish.  I appreciate being included in this celebration of Hybernian heritage. 



Nancy of Nancenet Designs has clearly been inspired! Thanks for including my clear quartz, Edwardian style earrings with local items from the Etsy Ireland team in 'Clear the Green.'  Clever title!

Something Blue


May heralds the beginning of summer in this part of the world so I thought I'd welcome it in with some fresh Summery jewellery using faceted, Austrian crystals in pale sapphire blue. The crystals are the same shade but look slightly different in each photo as the intensity of the blue depends on the light. Both pairs of earrings are perfect for a summer bride or for her bridesmaids. But of course, you don't have to be getting married to treat yourself to these ear candies. You will wear them all year round to any occasion, day or night.
blue crystal and white pearl earrings
The first, 'Yours Forever', is a simpler pair, matching the stunning crystals with white, freshwater pearl and Czech glass seed beads in a baby blue. These dainty earrings are very discreet and suitable to wear to work once the honey moon or summer vacation is over.
Blue crystal and clear topaz earrings
The second 'Yours Truly' are matched with tiny, clear topaz gemstones and solid pewter, hexagonal beads. The wrapping and hooks are a little more elaborate. If you can't decide which you prefer, if your dress is very simple, I'd go for these ones. 

If you are getting married this summer, I wish you every luck on the day and in the future.

thanks Marga! Check out her fabulous handmade linen items HERE

There is a definite Spanish flavour to my blog this week. I compiled this month's Etsy Ireland's Getting to Know You treasury with Spain in mind. 'Getting To Know You'  is where the Irish team greets another Etsy team with a 50-50 cross team treasury. This month as I have just returned from my holiday to Spain, I chose a Spanish team: Etsy Made In Spain to share the treasury with:

'Ireland Visits Spain' by byAMOR

For this month's Getting to Know you, Etsy Ireland takes a trip across the water to Spain to say '?Hola, que tal?' to the Etsy Made in Spain team with this 50-50 cross team treasury
