Crystal Canary says:Beautifully soft colors that look so pretty with the heart, lock & key. The Swarovski crystals add pizzaz & glamour to that sweet little heart. I bet you’re excited to get your new goodies!

sweetjane says:Thanks you all!! Yes Crystal it’s always exciting to get new stuff I have spent way too much money this Christmas ….so I have to definitely make some sales. I bought some epoxy clay, and am going to try making my own pendants…it should be fun!

Crystal Canary says:Jane, that does sound like fun– I can’t wait to see what you make with the clay!

Melody F says:I love the way you have the Crystal charms above the heart. I guess a bead becomes a charm when it is hung by means of a head pin, an eye pin, and maybe even waxed linen or leather?

K Ralston says:Oh, this is just lovely Sweetjane. At first glance I thought it was aquamarine, my birthstone and perhaps favorite. I love everything you do, but sometimes you outdo yourself.
