THE BEADING GEM'S JOURNAL

Recycled Paper Jewelry by Hippie Kingdom

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 04:15 AM PDT

Devi Chand comes from India - "the land of colors and festivals". Her love for crafts date back to her childhood. She grew up to make the most awesome paper jewelry in her Etsy store called Hippie Kingdom.

Her necklaces are outstanding for their bold structure. She certainly has a strong sense of color.

But what utterly charmed me were her original and unique paper earrings. Shown below is the confection made from corrugated paper. It does look like tiered cakes! Yummy!

Her dragonfly earrings are rolled paper beads connected with hemp. I also liked her photographic angle.

these are her adorable little cottage earrings:

This pink and white affair is a recycled paper pair of earrings. The weaving is such clever approach.

These are her recycled rolled newspaper creations. Without a doubt, all these designs showcase the talent of a highly creative individual!

Magpie Gemstones' $145 Tourmaline Gemstone Giveaway Winner

Posted: 18 Apr 2011 04:14 PM PDT

If there were such a thing as virtual bibs, I would have sent it to everyone as there was an awful lot of drooling going on the past week. Judging from the record number of entries - over 500 - many of you were indeed tourmaline fans. That's why the price is so high because it's so sought after.

Szarka's amazing $145 tourmaline gemstone giveaway was indeed a tremendous success thanks to her generosity. A big thank you for all the lovely comments posted about Szarka and me!

Yes, Susan. You are absolutely right when you said, "I'll bet this is one of those instances when you wish you could be in the draw too, Pearl!". But one incredibly lucky person has won this draw.

After assigning a number to each of the eligible entries, I consulted random.org which randomly generated a number. The winning number belonged to Wanaree Tanner! Congratulations!
