Alabama Themed Jewelry

I enjoy making Alabama themed jewelry.  Keep in mind I am an Alabama fan, but I do not own the copyright to any of these images.  This is a hobby of mine and all of the jewelry I am showing in this post I have either given to family or kept for myself.

This is one of my favorite Alabama themed bracelets I have made. I used lampwork glass houndstooth print beads, black glass beads with a smooth matte coating, a resin faceted beads with an Alabama "A," and a metal football charm that has the phrase "I Love (heart) Football."

This bracelet is like the first one, except I used red beads instead of black.

 

I made the above bracelet and earrings set for one of my sisters for Christmas one year. I like how they turned out. 

 This was a fun bracelet to make. I used resin houndstooth print beads, and took an Alabama themed cabochon, added a pendant bail to the back and strung both onto stretchy jewelry cord. 

The earrings pictured was one of my first attempts decorating hook earrings. I bought a read pair of heart hoop earrings and secured resin cabochons to the front of them. 

The bangle pictured was fun to make. I took a bangle and wrapped houndstooth print ribbon around it. I secured the ribbon to the bangle using glue.  Next I glued the Alabama cabochon to the front of the bangle.

Thanks for coming by!  

Throwback Jewelry Photo's: Week 2

I like how the purple heart and pink beads colors compliment each other. I like to think this bracelet was given to a child and enjoyed. I don't know if it was or not, but that is what I like to think.

 These pretty beads were some of the glass beads my Mama bought for me at the Pet Store, remember that story from last weeks post? 

 I remember making this bracelet and thinking it was a challenge at the time because of it's three strands, and the fact seed beads are tiny!

 Green and Pink plastic beads made up this cute bracelet.  

This particular bracelet was one of my favorites. In fact I think I kept it and stored it with some other bracelets of mine.   The dark orange beads are beads bought from the Pet Store, the dark purple beads are plastic pony beads, and the mini blue pony beads glow in the dark!

Throwback Jewelry Photo's: Post 1

Last week I came across picture of jewelry I made years ago. I thought these pictures were gone. I was happily surprised when I found them.  The bracelet above I made using mini blue and white glow in the dark pony beads.

 This bracelet I made using blue glass beads and golden yellow pony beads. The blue beads have a unique story.  One day my Mama and I went to a Pet Store in Monroeville, Alabama. I believe I was sixteen at the time.  While at the checkout at the Pet Store, we saw a container of beads sitting on the container.  The woman working there said she sold beads! I remember how excited I was to find somewhere else nearby that sold beads besides Wally World.

 For this bracelet I used a combination of plastic beads. Clear, pearl white, and red. 

 

 This bracelet I made or did a family member make it? I do not remember. I do remember liking how pretty it looked, even though the beads were plastic. 

This bracelet turned out colorful!  I used a variety of shapes, all plastic beads.

I enjoy looking back at jewelry I have made.  Looking at these pictures along with others I came across inspired me to start a new blog series. Throwback Jewelry Photo's. Ever so often I post a throwback jewelry photo on my Instagram (MardiRobyn), so why not start a series of blog posts?  

Check back right here, every Thursday for four or five throwback jewelry photo's.
