Gothic Garden Leaf Earrings for Fall

These handcrafted leaf earrings have an exotic flavor.  I used hand carved chunky leaves of Poppy Jasper in rich brick red with gray inclusions.  Then I dangled some sleek, gray metallic Hematite beads.  Silver accents finish off this gothic garden theme.

Did you know that a leaf symbolizes happiness!

Fall for this Statement Necklace

Though Mother Nature can't seem to make up her mind, these crisp, cool mornings can only mean that autumn is making her entrance.  You can, too, with this handmade statement necklace.

Created with natural oval beads of Canyon Marble in gray, burnt orange, creamy white and taupe, combined with sleek metallic gray Hematite, plus beautiful, big long oval beads of natural Carnelian.  Silver accents complete the look.  Fabulous colors any time, but especially for fall.  This necklace is what I like to call semi chunky.  It has a nice big scale, without being overwhelming or very heavy to wear in comfort.

Autumn Leaves and Freshwater Pearls: Happiness

Normally it might be a stretch to suggest that leaves, autumn or otherwise, have anything at all to do with pearls.  However, they definitely belong in the same sentence describing this exquisite blister pearl leaf necklace.

I love blister pearls. The focal point of this piece is a wonderful hand carved leaf blister pearl in shades of creamy white & ivory, carmel and taupe, and soft blush pink.  I've used silver to hand wire wrap gorgeous soft blush pink freshwater pearls in this necklace. Extremely pale, they're almost a sort of feminine neutral. Bali sterling silver accents both the necklace and the coordinating earrings. 

What makes this even more meaningful is that pearls symbolize a woman's perfect beauty. A pearl necklace is believed to warn sensitive people of imminent danger. Pearls promote wisdom and contentment; soften pain and bring joy.  And a single leaf symbolizes happiness.

Now, that's a brilliant combination!  Browse more romantic necklaces at Bittersweet Ridge Jewelry.

Statement Jewelry for Fall: Sardonyx Floral Necklace

I adore Fall.  It's my favorite season of the year.  I love the crisp fall nights and the good excuse to light a crackling fire.  I love the warm autumn summer days when the sunshine seems more golden.  And I'm absolutely crazy about all the fall color as the leaves turn. 

If you enjoy a good Scarlet Maple or Sweet Gum in the autumn sun, then you should take a look at this carnelian and sardonyx floral necklace.  Big chunky gemstone beads in fabulous autumn colors.  It's a truly sensual combination of burnt orange, cream, golden yellow and more.  Pretty spectacular and just plain pretty, too, if you know what I mean.
