Birthstone Earrings!

After a hint someone gave me on my blog give-away a few posts down, I decided to make birthstone earrings too! Thank you very much for the inspiration!


As the charms, these earrings are made with sterling silver, big freshwater pearls (11-12 mm) and swarovski crystals in a colour of the month or the colour of your choice.


These are the birthstone colours:

January - Siam or Garnet

February - Amethyst

March - Aquamarine

April - Crystal

May- Emerald

June - Pearl or Light Amethyst

July - Siam

August - Peridot

September - Sapphire
October - Rose or Light Rose or Green Turmaline
November - Topaz
December - Blue Zircon, Turquoise, Light Sapphire


These are the colours in swarovski crystal, of course there will be people using other colours but these are commonly found.


For now I only made earrings for the next 4 months, simply because I ran out of earring hooks and I want to use these.


Here is a picture:
They cost 12 dollars each, it's a low price but I decided this because I love it when people give my jewelry as gifts.
