Heart's Creation

Hi dear friends and all,

Today I am starting a new blog on a new found passion fired by a friend when she gave me two pairs of earrings before the school term ended in Nov 19, 2010. I got so carried away that I wasted little time in getting my stuffs. But to learn how to do it was a sure tough lesson. I kept missing parts and therefore I kept running to the shop to get what I missed out. The lady who sold me the things like beads and wires and crystals became my friend because she was really curious about my many, many trips to her shop. She couldn't contain her curiosity and thus asked me what I was doing. Of course I told I am a crazy hobbyist.

Well, after spending a huge sum of money and running countless of times to the bead shop, I finally got all my stuff and also learn about many things, I managed to create 58 pairs of earrings. I had a really enjoyable time putting things together, going into late nights because the mind was working over time. And now you would want to ask, what would I do with 58 pairs of earrings. To be honest I took them to a friend and asked her help. She sold some for me. I couldn't believe it. I thought she was going to return everything to me but ...... Well, there is definitely no profit made. But I enjoy doing the earrings tremendously.

I have since moved on to making bracelets necklaces. The things I made are not very expensive. I don't usually used all crystals (Swarovski)because it is going to be expensive. I mixed them with different types of beads so that a pair sold will be of a reasonable pricing. But if anyone request for crystals I would definitely obliged.


Now let me share with you how I priced my earrings.

RM5.00
This pair has no expensive crystals


RM6.00 and RM5.00
The smaller pair is more expensive because of the Swarovski cyrstal which is above the tear drop bead.


RM5.00

This pair is slightly more expensive. They are priced at RM10.00. I have added two cyrstals there.



This pair also cost RM10.00 with two crystals


This is also another slightly expensive pair. It is because the watermelons are pricy. This pair cost RM6.00


/div>
This pair has beads from China and therefore it cost RM6.00.



RM6.00


RM7.00


RM5.00


RM10.00


Both pairs are at RM10.00 because of the crystals.
