This is another of my favorite designs.  I found some wonderful
 wavy oval onyx beads on line and kept bidding on them (they were being sold 4 at a time) until I got enough to make two necklaces.  I have to admit unless I just cannot get enough to make two necklaces, I usually have one for myself and one to sell!  Afterall, these are like my babies, I have given birth to them in my imagination and to actually have to sell them sometimes is painful!  But, I added some Russian onyx chips and some Bali sterling spacer beads and made the turquoise square cross my focal bead.  A lot of my designs express my spirituality, so as we add to this blog you will see more crosses
made out of different elements.    Once again, I have used a few
sterling silver beads at the end and this time a sterling silver toggle
to be the clasp.  As on most of my designs you will see the small
sterling silver "fleur de lis" which is my patented trademark.
Hope you like this addition to my line.
Till next time, happy beading.

Welcome to Tres Chic Designs




Here is my first post for Tres Chic Designs.
I am a artisan/jewelry designer.  I live in Katy, Texas and
I am passionate about designing and creating one of a kind
and limited edition jewelry.  Here is one of my designs that I
truly love.  Probably because I love the magenta colored stick pearls
that I found at a gemshop and then went scrambling around looking
for various beads to add to this design.  I ended up with amethyst
and tanzanite Swarovski cube shaped crystals, some purple
mother of peal chip beads, some round magenta pearls, and
a sterling silver clasp that I really like to use because it is easy
to do by yourself!
