Wire Jewelry - Wire Wrapped Rose Earrings - Non Soldered

Hi! Happy Monday!
Yikes, still lazy to start anything but this will be a quick post for today.
Here's a pair of Wire Wrapped Rose Earrings, which (I couldn't believe it!!!) was completed few months back but I somehow forgot to post.

There are a few more earrings that were in the same batch but that would be for later.

This rose earrings here is a stud.
No soldering involve at all.
The process of creating them is similar to my "Wire Wrapped Rose Earrings Tutorial at Etsy" but with a little bit modification. Nevertheless, you'll get the idea if you go thru the steps.

And yes, this is a quick project, maximum 30 minutes of your time.
Haha....I always love simple (but elegant) and quick project.
Have a great week ahead.

Minlace - Prehnite the Stone of Prophecy

Finally got myself a bit of time to post this. Kind of slow right?
This time, I am back with Minlace (Minima Necklace). This Minlace is wire wrapped with the same stone as the Minlet in previous post - yes, prehnite.

Can't believe my first Minlace was back in January this year. Been wearing it ever since and yikes! how time flies.

Material:
  • Chain: Box link stainless steel chain
  • Clasp: Lobster claw clasp
  • Gemstone Beads: Natural Prehnite nuggets of various sizes
  • Length: About 42 cm or 16.5 inches

If you are a believer in the power of gemstones and crystals, Prehnite is believed to be a stone of prophecy. It also calms and protects and many more (believed) benefits such as these:
  • Enhance level of insight - see truths you would otherwise be blind to.
  • Enhance precognition, visualization and inner knowledge.
  • Dream recall and to alleviate nightmares, deep fears and phobias. 
  • Helps in decluttering your life and dispel unpleasant memories.
  • In health, it heal the kidneys and the bladder, gout, anemia as well as increase energy.

MinLet - Prehnite, for Peace and Protection

Compared to man made crystals or beads, I prefer natural gemstones.
If it is a green colored gemstones, better still :)

This time around, my MinLet (Minima Bracelet) is wire wrapped with natural Prehnite nuggets.

One thing about Prehnite is that the stone can be a little bit on the brittle side. Few pieces got chipped off at the edges where holes were drilled. At least a third of them. Very sayang (wasted), so got to think of what to do with those chipped pieces.

Got to be extra careful while wire wrapping the stones as well. Be gentle.

Material:
  • Chain: Box link stainless steel chain
  • Clasp: Lobster claw clasp
  • Gemstone Beads: Natural Prehnite nuggets of various sizes
  • Length: About 7 inches (18 cm). Adding few jump rings will add to the length of the MinLet.
