Ivory & Cream Bridesmaid Jewelry




This year there seems to be a new color trend popping up for bridesmaids. Typically, brides lean towards choosing colorful jewelry that matches their bridesmaids gowns and wedding colors. Lately the trends seems to be heading towards the selection of ivory and cream colored bridesmaid jewelry or white bridesmaid jewelry.

The light tones of ivory and cream as well as white gives a nice "pop" color for accessorizing with any color pallet. Ivory and white jewelry goes with every color and can be worn for multiple occasions. This makes a gift of this type of bridesmaid jewelry a gift that keeps on giving. Bridesmaids are usually given their jewelry by the bride the day before the wedding as their "thank you" gift for being a part of their special day. Giving bridesmaid jewelry in neutral tones like cream and white allows the bride to match to any color pallet as well as making a beautiful jewelry piece statement.

The general trend of the white and ivory bridesmaid jewelry seems to follow pearls. Pearls are a very traditional and classic look for brides but bridesmaids as well. Whether it's a chunky combination of multiple strands of pearls, illusion pearl jewelry or just a simple single strand pearl necklace and bracelet, ivory and white colored pearls make a perfect fit.

Because there are so many different styles of bridesmaids jewelry, it's great to shop for your white and cream bridesmaid jewelry online, finding a designer or company that offers these color selections. Finding a store that also customizes things like the size, clasp and earring styles and other personal customizations that make planning a wedding easy and stress free.

If you are considering white, cream or ivory bridesmaid jewelry for your bridesmaids looking for any design that fits your style is the perfect gift giving idea. White and ivory pearl colors are perfect for any wedding, any season and coordinate with any color pallet. The rewearable factor is also huge for your jewelry gift because they can accessorize it with anything.

Coins Around the World

I've always thought it's cool when artists do a series all based around one theme. Since I've begun bead weaving I've done one complete series (my Elements Necklaces), I've done a few pieces that I classify as Geekery, and now I'm starting on a new and exciting series! It's called "Coins Around the World."

My fascination with coins started when I was young. Dad taught me to look for wheat head pennies and buffalo nickels. Other than those two specific examples I never really got into the whole "collecting for value" thing with coins, but I have always kept a container with any "odd" coins I've found. Some of those came from random coins that turned up in tills while I worked retail, others were collected as members of my family (or friends) traveled the world.

When my brother came home from Nepal recently I decided it would be fun to use some of the coins he had left over for jewelry...and then it hit me. "I have this collection of coins from around the world, I can do a whole series out of this!" So I went pawing through boxes to find where my collection had gotten stashed in all my moves these last few years and was amazed at how many I found!

I eventually sorted them all out into different bags by country, and it's quite the list!



I have:
Australia
Bahamas
Botswana
Canada
England
Euro
France
Fiji
Hong Kong
India
Liban
Mexico
Nepal
Netherlands
Russia
Singapore
Sri Lanka
USA
And a small bag of one's I haven't identified yet!

Some of the bags only have one coin in them (like Botswana) and some of them have a whole bunch! I have ideas for necklaces, bracelets, pendants, and earrings! There will definitely be some out of this collection I make for myself. In fact, I think the next one I make will be for me :)

I chose to have my first piece in the collection to a Mexican Peso. I was originally planning on doing a necklace with one of the Nepali coins, but I think I'm going to have to buy some beads to do what I want to with that one, and I knew exactly what I wanted to do with this Peso!


I used the colors of the Mexican flag (plus black) for this necklace. It's completely reversible, and the pendant comes off! It's in my Artfire shop if your interested :)

I look forward to sharing more of these with you over the next year! I have lots of other projects I want to do as well so I'll probably work one of these in ever couple of projects or so :)
