The beautiful earrings above are by Yazmin, a web developer and jeweler who sells her limited edition creations on Etsy at http://aprettyrock.etsy.com.
Like many of the talented Etsy artists I've featured on this blog, Yasmin gives back, and 25% of the proceeds from the sale of these earrings will go to "Count Me In" (through the end of 2008).
"Count Me In" is a national not-for-profit provider of business resources and education for women entrepreneurs. Their mission is to promote economic independence and the growth of women-owned businesses. http://www.countmein.org/site/home.php
Now to the earrings. Aren't they elegant! These chandelier earrings are made with a handformed ball-studded arc. Accented with a cluster of Israeli-faceted peridot rondelles, labradorite faceted hearts and a solitary marquis briolette.
These earrings are made to order and take up to one week before they ship. But you can find many other lovely necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings and hair pins on Yasmin's site that provide immediate gratification, anytime you want more sparkle.
Yasmin is a participant in "90 Features in 90 Days" challenge, where you write about a feature about a different Etsy artist or artisan every day. You can read her post about me at - http://www.aprettyrock.com/90-days-jewelry-that-flows.
