Description

The listing, 100th Auction Badge Earrings Special! has ended.

NOT TIERED! 10 sets of HANDCRAFTED earrings and one necklace and earrings set!!! "VIEW LARGE" Please!!! This is actually my 101st auction I just posted my 100th and a badge popped up so I thought I would list this one to celebrate my 100 auctions posted! I've assemble all these beautiful earrings myself!

Photos

1. First six earrings following photos so each individually starting with the top left moving clockwise.

2.&3. Metallic cobalt blue color beads with stardust beads and jump ring woven spacers. (When I purchased the beads on-line the description said crystal beads. Upon arrive they look to me to be glass.)

4.& 5. Mint green opaque glass beads accented with peridot green crystal beads and your choice of the pearlized glass or silver beads. Ha ha! I just noticed that the little beads on these are two different kinds. Let me know which you would prefer I will send a MATCHING set not the miss match in the photo.

6. & 7. Shell/Acrylic beads accented with white/silver ceramic beads and pearlized glass beads.

8.& 9. Same design as the one in photo 2 & 3. With a different color what I'd like to call "Oil Slick".

10. & 11. SWEET PEAS!!! A new design I started to make just recently Inspired by my two kids. These are not crafted with sterling wire. They are made with silver toned craft wire. When I perfect my technique and gather more supply I will began to make more.

12. & 13. Same design as 5. & 6. Shell/acrylic beads accented this time with black cat's eye and silver beads.

14. White frosted dangles.

15. Green grape frosted dangles.

16. Aqua Blue Cube dangle with stardust accents.

17. Dangles smokey AB seed bead drops, white frost and silver stardust.

18. Pearlized glass necklace and earrings.

19. Close up of the earrings in the set.

I posted pearlized glass because though I purchased them as real pearls they do not look real at all when I began to use them.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask me! I'd be more then happy to answer!

Is the whole lot up for auction, or do you pick out the one you want. I am not sure what a tiered auction is.

Tiered means you, typically, win more as the bids get higher. This auction is all 10 earrings and the pearlized glass bead necklace and earring set! =D

Hi can't find any comments or answers about what type of wire you used except that one of the items says not sterling wire. Does that mean the rest of them are sterling?
Jul 5th, 2011 at 6:56:17 AM PDT by
Original
The wire I've used on all of them are silver plated. The one that I say is not sterling is not silver at all, they are not even plated, it is craft wire. I'm reserving my sterling sweet peas for my webstore.

Also, I saw your comment from the bidder in India. The problem with shipping anywhere else but Canada is that it is WAY more expensive, and if you choose the cheapest overseas shipping, you do NOT get any tracking, and things get LOST going overseas VERY frequently. So you almost have to ship Priority with tracking, and most buyers from overseas here are not willing to pay, and/or do not have any way to send you the money (Paypal, etc). So, unfortunately, shipping overseas is generally not feasible.

I didn't not know that thank you for letting me know. I most likely will not do oversea then.

I have to tell all your bidders that Sheena's jewelry is BEAUTIFUL, MUCH prettier than in the photos (I'll have to give you my 5-minute photography class). They are really, really nice. Sheena, earrings are really tough to photograph, but try holding them in front of, and behind, a bright daylight color light and take a bunch of photos to try to get the light to go through and reflect off the glass beads. You can get some spectacular photos that way ... then crop them WAY in so they are BIG in the photos. I use HP Photosmart software which is a free download. It can take a little time to get used to it, but it works very well for cropping, brightening, increasing contrast, etc.

Thank you very much I've been struggling to get even a few good photos. The house I live in does not have a very good lighting and outside is way too bright. I will definitely practice your techniques for my next photos.

Watching and fanned. I've thought about putting some of my own stuff up for auction here, but my camera-computer connection isn't working right now, so I'll have to wait. I might bid in a few days if I have enough credits! :-)

I'm sure If I've mentioned it here yet or not but I'm going to be posting another Non Tiered Auction for Seed Bead size 8/0 Memory Wire Bracelets so crafty crafters can undo them and use the beads and wire as they wish or you can wear them as is!!

Re: photos. The best way to get good photos is to use a small desk lamp with a daylight or natural light color bulb (like a craft lamp). Move the light around to get different effects with shadow and light coming through from the back. Trying to use natural light near a window is frustrating, you have to take your photos at a specific time of day. I have a small spot set up on my desk with a white fabric that is propped up with a piece of cardboard so I have a backdrop too. And, I use these little clear containers I have for beads--I put the item on TOP of the container, so the light is coming in through the bottom and sides.
Jul 6th, 2011 at 8:57:57 AM PDT by

You container idea is perfect. I found a light box on eBay one day for items like jewelry and small hand held size items but they want I think about $130 or more for them. I asked my father for ideas (who is pretty inventive) on how we could make our own but we didn't have the materials needed. I have a perfect light set up to use now with this tip though! =D

The light box probably takes up a lot of space too. You don't need a lot of space to photo jewelry!

It's so pretty bulky and my husband already complains that I have to much craft stuff. (For me it's never enough for him it's just taking up space.)
