Crystals Brooch & Bracelet

Went for holidays last week and stop by beads and crystals shop...the display on the walls were so attractive and shiny!!! Crystals with all sorts of colours and shape and size... I saw this crystals brooch made on the safety pin...not those safety pin on the diapers!!.. Been very curious how it was made!!

Brooch made from stones and crystals

As it was raining as well and waited for the rain to stop.... the shoplady was very kind to show me how the brooch was made.. she show me kinda straightforward and simple one ... the method....and in the end.. I ended up borrowing money from my friend and spent hundreds on buying the materials and crystals!!! Of course it was not the real Swarovski crystals.. but it was Grade 2 crystals.. the real one would be to expensive for me to buy...and it break too it fell down....

So went to bookstore and bought two beading books and came home and start doing the brooch and the bracelets...

Handmade some brooch for my colleauges and custom made some crystal bracelet from orders!!! Can't believe I got order so soon!! Thanks!!

Simple brooch as souveniers for my colleauges

For the bracelets.. at the moment I only know 4 styles..so kinda limited..but for me.. simple is nice.. the more complicated it is.. meaning the more crystals you gonna use.. n the price definitely will be higher..furthermore.. as I am a beginner...my crystals were bit limited as well!! However, compare to the store in town..my charges are much more lower than them.. but that doesn't mean my crystals are very poor quality.. I am honest enough to say mine are grade 2 crystals...ahahah
