Today’s post is about one of the coolest fall-winter jewelry trends. Bib-necklaces are funny, romantic and give my neck a warm and cozy feeling. This is why I love creating them in a wide range of models and colors, enriching each one  with sequins, beads, vintage buttons and wool embroidery. I like sewing on their back a lovely satin ribbon to be tied around the neck or providing them with an adjustable chain to create a nice contrast between fabric and metal.

My fall-winter creations are mostly in felt, but I long for spring to start creating them in different fabrics and keep playing! ;)

Here can you find a selection of  bib-necklaces I created so far:

You can find them and even more in my stores

These earrings are a stylish mix of earth tones and bright hues. I created these lovely dangles from bright blue crazy lace agate and set it against a rich brown carved wooden bead. Antique gold spacers create an interesting contrast and a little elegance!

These earrings are available for purchase at Jewels Of Saraswati.

I love the rich fiery orange of these fire agate earrings! They are made of two crackling fire agate rounds, antique silver spacers and bead caps and hung from sterling silver earwire.

Sometimes I can be so inspired by a color, by a texture, by the tiniest detail. I came across some gorgeous white magnesite and had to create a necklace from this interesting stone. It reminded me of marble, with delicate little veins of black and brown throughout….I was instantly inspired!

I call this necklace Venice. It is created from 6mm, 10mm and 15mm magnesite rounds, gold plated corrugated spacers and heishi beads, ending with a detailed gold plated toggle clasp.

Only after a friend recently requested a jewelry piece in gold did I really begin to experiment with this precious metal.

Since then, many wonderful designer inspired creations have emerged to create a collection of chic and affordable jewelry in my shop. These pieces include gold chain, green peridot, purple amethyst and golden citrine. I invite you to take a look at some of my favorites!
