Seen wearing Jewelry Chains: Hilary Duff

Feb 21, 2010

The story on MailOnline about Hilary Duff is about her engagement.  Our purpose is to highlight her wearing layered necklace chains.  One looks like a long silvery necklace with some beads/charms wire wrapped on.  Second is a shorter chain with a small pendant.  With the blurry picture, you can't quite tell if the choker section is a third necklace or if its part of the second double-wrapped around her neck.

Are you inspired to wear more neck chains yet?  See shiny bulk silver-plated chains hereSee bulk sterling silver chains here.

Here's to your creativity!

Favorite Flat Oval Sterling Cable Chain available again

A favorite chain of ours – Flat Oval Sterling Cable Chain – is available again!

Sterling Silver Chain #3: Flat Oval Cable Chain

This chain has been a favorite of ous for 7 or 8 years now.  Its great for necklaces and bracelets using wire wrapped dangles or charms.  We also use it as chain extenders when we pair it with a nice sterling silver trigger clasp.

More design options with antique brass filigree!

antique brass filigree earrings

Seriously fun to wear earrings can be made with these antique brass filigree components. In this particular example I mixed many colors of green in response to the new spring colors surrounding me these days.

Consider all the colors in your bead collection..try black, purple, pink, aqua or earthly brown hues. Antique brass compliments many colors. AND, still light as feathers after loading them up with lots of drops. 

Show off your free spirited side and make and wear a pair!

Go wild with color,

Sterling Silver Chain! What’s not to LOVE!

Just in after a long wait are new chain styles in Sterling Silver.

sterling silver chain #30

Perfectly round flat links that catch and reflect light. Sterling silver chain #30 will make a delicate chain bracelet with little charms, stones and glass. Excellent for flashy earrings and most certainly a necklace making favorite. The price of sterling is inching up a bit these days but often times when factoring in the upgrade sterling silver gives a creation, the small price increase often times has no impact. This is priced at $4.50/foot and will serve you well.

Here's a closer look.
