Entry for Jewellery Challenge # 5

This is my entry for the Jewellery Challenge Blogspot's 5th challenge 

They are made from silver tubes and Swarovski bicone and top-drilled bicones in Tanzanite, Violet and Violet Opal.  The ear wires have tiny Tanzanite crystals inset into them too.  I made the set to go with my purple velvet party dress, and they really do catch the light when I wear them.

January Jewellery swap

The theme for this month's jewellery swap on the Crafts Beautiful Forum is purple - either earrings or a hairslide.  I have used purple seed beads, light amethyst matte Swarovski crystals and some glass hearts, on tigertail. Must get them in the post today as they are due by the 17th!
