I am one grateful person! Close to noon on the Fourth of July, after being without electricity for 5 days, we regained power! I LOVE air conditioning, tv, and most of all my computer and the internet!
I didn't make jewelry during that time since my studio is on the fourth floor and you can just imagine what the heat was like (it was 100 degrees outside for at least 2 of the days).
So in celebration of July (ruby is the birthstone) and the power returning, here are some red-hot ruby bracelets!
Above, my favorite flat faceted rubies team up with dragonfly bangles in sterling silver.
Below, rubies bring some heat to the cool creamy white freshwater coin pears you see here. The sterling toggle clasp with its bevy of flowers is an extra pretty touch!
A bangle bracelet, below, features pretty faceted ruby nuggets and bangles from the Thai Karen Hill Tribes of sterling silver. The sterling toggle clasp has a cabochon ruby bezel-set in the teardrop.
Quartz faceted nuggets are cool and classic and each is separated by pretty neon aqua apatite.
Above, the colors of turquoise and coral are echoed in the lampwork beads. A scalloped filigree sterling toggle is the closure; two charms, one fish and one seahorse, hang near the center of the bracelet.

awesome jewelry...
I really like the designs you show above. It is also very interesting how you can relate times of the year with specific jewlery. Thank you.
