I made this unofficially for my mom. I say that because it wasn't really for anyone in particular, but she liked it, so I'll let her have it. The pendand didn't come with the dangles, so I bought some crystal beads to match, and made them, along with 3mm silver spacers. I had enough beads left over for earrings too. I didn't have any fine chain to attach to the pendant so while I was out today I picked some up.

My New Love For Chandeliers
So since I made a pair of chandelier earrings at my class, I've really started to love how easy it is to make them look good. These are the ones I've made since:
These are made with purple crackle glass beads and some 3mm glass pearls. My lighting doesn't do them justice, because they can sparkle in the right light. I got complimented on them by the nurse when I wore them to the doctor's office today.
These are made with plastic (I KNOWWWW, I said I don't like using plastic, but the flowers were too cute) and glass beads. I was more in love with the black findings needed for these. I wore these to work and everyone complimented them. It feels good to know people like your stuff.

Jewellery-Making Class, Day 2
Day 2 of our class, and we were ahead of schedule, so we jumped ahead to making a chain bracelet. The teacher brought a stash of beads that we got to choose from and make our own design with. This is what I made.
The beads were glass and plastic, the latter of which I'm not keen on using in the future, but the bracelet came out looking nice. The most time-consuming part was making the loops in the wire pins, but it was worth it, I think.
EDIT:
I also made some earrings with matching beads:
