This Boyer Life

Red, White and Blue Jewelry

I don't usually make 4th of July jewelry (not a fan of designing with bright blue...go figure!), but had some charms and beads in my stash, so I thought I'd make some red, white and blue jewelry for those who like to celebrate patriotic holidays.

You can watch a brief show-and-tell video of these pieces below:

The "fireworks" earrings are already in our ChezBoyer Etsy Shop. I'll get the others up soon!

Cherry Blossom Jewelry Design Kit

Soft Flex Company has the coolest jewelry kits, and I'm happy to share my latest unboxing (er, unbagging) with you: the Cherry Blossom Design Kit!

I've already made a necklace, bracelet and earrings from this kit--and there's more beads left (which means more design fun for me!)

My Jewelry in the (Soft Flex Company) Spotlight

Honored that Soft Flex Company asked me to take part in their VIB (Very Important Beader) Community Spotlight. You can read all about me and see some samples of my work at their blog here.

Unboxing the Painted Sunflowers Kit from Soft Flex Company

Just received an order from the Soft Flex Company, including my first beading kit from them: Painted Sunflowers, an homage to Vincent Van Gogh.

What do you think of this kit, guys? Are you a fan of yellow and blue beads...together?
