A Fashion Hottie

Fashion magazines, designers, high-end stores buyers will all say that the staple color combination is black & white or black & cream.

Not anymore! There’s a new staple in town and its color combination is hot and exotic; Red & Black color combination designs are the hottest thing going and going and going!
Jazz up your little black dress with the stylish look of red Coral and black Onyx; mix in a little silver or gun metal and you have some of the most spectacular designs in gemstones!

You can wear any of these color combinations with red, black, white t-shirts, jeans, jackets; dress it up or classic cool casual.


Look for these and many other cool color combinations at Timeless Designs.

A Designers Thoughts

When I first started my jewelry business I did a lot of research. I looked at designs, searched the net on trends, colors, and fashions; I read any book, magazine or website I could get my hands on about the jewelry business and industry. I take a look back from time to time and see how my designs and busienss are evolving.

Early on the designs were simple and didn’t use hardly any wire techniques. After a few wire working classes, I was hooked and now love to design something that incorporates the wire as more of an accent to the beauty of the natural gemstones.

Now many comment on how bold, exotic and trendy my designs have become. When designing, I look to the stones to lead me in a direction; either from the color combinations or just by adding metals, glass or crystals makes it stand out.

One thing as an Artist I’ve learned, I’m my worst critic and need to learn that not having the perfect fit or completed look is all part of the creative handcrafted style that makes me an Artist.

I’m still searching the net, looking at jewelry, designs, trends, colors, and fashions; but mostly, I look to my customers, because the jewelry is a pure reflection of their personality and who they are.

If there is but one piece of advice I could give…it’s go with your instincts, never give in, learn to be flexible and above all have fun with what you do and enjoy your creations.

Jewelry Parties

It’s the new rage in home parties! Jewelry parties are becoming the fast new trend for getting in on hot styles and new fashion, all without leaving your house! No malls, no crowds, no traffic, and no waiting for your order to be delivered weeks or months later.

It’s Fun and Convenient
When you host a jewelry party at home, your friends do their shopping in a relaxed social setting, shopping, and eating, while you earn a percentage of what they spend, which you can apply toward any jewelry in stock. Its lots of fun!

Many women have had jewelry parties, and their friends have really enjoyed themselves, socializing, eating, and shopping, while the hostesses earned free or discounted jewelry with every dollar their guests spent. Some hostesses have earned jewelry worth hundreds of dollars!

There's no waiting! One of the best things about a jewelry party is that you and your guests select and take home your jewelry that very day-there's no ordering and delivery later. That's different from most of those other companies, where your guests have to wait for their purchases.

Twisted Wire Bracelets

Glass pearls are great to work with; they are light weight and come in a variety of dyed colors. Here I’ve used them in a twisted wire bracelet design and finished of with Swarovski Crystals and silver toggles.
