Description There are a Lot of Onyx pieces in this one, just received the Marble Onyx from my favorite online store... firemountaingems of course! Those little ovals deserved a special design, fives and threes seemed to work with all the other sardonyx, catseye and then that little fancy drop Botswana Agate turned out to go so well with the striations in the Marble Onyx. Course that is my opinion I hope you like it as well as I enjoyed making/designing it! This time I remembered what *mombeam said... don't forget the earrings! She is such a good Sister!

Now for the bones of this piece... first thing that pops out at you are the pretty blue cat's eye, along with the larger gray cat's eye in the back of the necklace the blue is continued into the bracelet but had run out by the time I started the earrings... if I put this up for sale I will definitely find some more blue cat's eye and redesign the earrings, but for now Onyx will do fine along with the Marble Onyx oval drops and can't forget the shell slivers I used in all three, just love that natural feel of the shells. Now there are only six large Sardonyx stones used but just love all the beautiful rich colors in them. Of course had to use the large Onyx stone beads on the necklace but they were a bit too much on the bracelet and earrings so used smaller Onyx beads. Used the Silver Sun and Moon toggle from BlueMoonbeads, another one of my favorite online stores as well as the Silver earring hoops. now did I forget anything?

Hope you enjoy my little tribute to the a small variety of ONYX!!

Blessings to all of dA!

Thank-you, so much Sis! Those Marble Onyx drops were a pain to just hang straight so I tried this little itzy, bitzy round pierced earring gadget and then twisted and pulled till it hung perfectly Talk about obsessive afterwards realized there were no blue cats eye in there... I still have a Lot to learn about circles and wire and, and, pictures, how do they put them in four perfect squares of four different pictures?

I love that idea... how much did it cost per stone? Or are you one of the extreamly lucky to own a bead/stone drill? If so, how much was it?

DAnnsCreations In reply to AngeliqueBestow [2009-01-27 19:40:55 +0000 UTC]

Actually I haven't written all that down yet I go over to firemountaingems for most of the Sardonyx and Onyx, using the 3rd set of pricings, I also use AtoZBeads here in Phoenix, for a lot of the varieties of CatsEye beads, as well as only $4 a strand for the shell beads and those are 24in. strands, easy peasy I do have a set of diamond tipped drill bits for clean out when I have a Real special raw stone, also a tumbler to put a shine on said stones. I have a polishing set for the super special ones... most of those things I have purchased slowly over the years, especially when going to Harbor Freight Warehouse for their sales! Oh man, I sound like some kind of commercial If you'd like a more specific pricing, I'll note you when I put it together

AngeliqueBestow In reply to DAnnsCreations [2009-02-05 02:15:13 +0000 UTC]

yeah, I'd like that. How much was the polishing and drill kit for all of this? I'm thinking of getting one too and my B-day is sunday so depending on price I might be able to get it!

DAnnsCreations In reply to AngeliqueBestow [2009-02-05 16:39:46 +0000 UTC]

I found one set at Harbor Freight Tools for around $19 to $25. And recently they had a sale at $15. I think they are also online under HarborFreightWarehouse I googled them
