Jewelry set with Primevere flower and Hellebore print

This jewelry set consists of a broche, a pair of earrings and two different rings. The glass cabochons show an elegant bouquet of primeveres and hellebores.
The broche is a ready made product since the setting and the ornaments have already been fastened onto the pin. All you need to do is glue a pretty cab onto it.
The earrings were made with a set of ear studs with a space for a 5mm rhinestone. They have loops at the bottom, so you can attach a pendant or setting. In this example bronze settings with an antique style border were used to place the glass cabochons in, combined with a pair of peridot rhinestones in the ear studs.
Finally, two models of adjustable rings with lace edge settings were used to set the primevere cabochons in. Wear the small one to the office during the day, and switch to the larger version in the evening!

Earrings with bowknots and rhinestones

These earrings with acrylic rhinestones and metal bowknots are fully on trend and so easy to make.

These pearshaped rhinestones are light-weight (such a good thing for earrings), the silverfoiled back makes them sparkle, and they are available in a wide range of colours. Combined with the fun metal bowknots the combinations are endless.
What do you need to make these earrings

• Flat nose pliers to close the prong settings
• Round nose pliers to adjust the earwire
• A pair of earwires, goldtone suits the brass settings well
• Two prong settings with 1 loop for a pear rhinestone 18x13 mm
• Two pear shaped rhinestones size 18x13 mm
• Two metal bowknots

Additional tips for putting these earrings together

• Take your time to get used to working with prong settings. Please refer to our article Making earrings with vintage rhinestones for a full description.
• I've used earwires without a loophole. First you slide the bowknot on the wire, and then the finished setting. I squeezed the loop area slightly to prevent the pendants from sliding off too easily.

Flower earstuds with rhinestones

Aren't these cute? These flower earstuds just need a few 3 mm rhinestones to fill the petals. Because the rhinestones are really tiny, we used a headpin to apply the glue in the settings.

Earrings with faux turquoise droplets

I really enjoyed playing about with these faux turquoise drop beads. Each strand in this lot has an identical mix of colours, enough for 8 matching pairs of beads – perfect for making earrings!
The conical filligree bead caps give the drops extra length, while keeping the design light-weight.
The technique is very simple and suitable for beginners: you take a long head pin (around 50mm), and place the droplet onto it. Then you gently place the bead cap over the bead, but don't push it down, because this can cause the bead cap to unfold. You finish it off with one simple eyelet and any earhook you prefer.
Here I chose metal parts in an antique copper colour. But parts are available for making the exact same design in antique bronze, if you prefer. And then you've got a whole new set of earrings to go with any outfit!

Emerald earrings

Emerald, together with sapphire and ruby, is one of the most exclusive gemstones. Pantone has declared Emerald colour of the year 2013, and indeed it is a lovely colour to design your jewelry with. Emerald green is a warm shade, and it fits well into many colourpalettes. Emerald is reminiscant of exotic India, clean Art Deco and it also goes together well with natural materials like jade or perhaps coral. Gothic Victorian and Medieval designers too favour emerald green in their creations. To get you started, here are a few earring designs with emerald green as their main inspiration.
