Filigree, Apagee, Pedigree!

So, I bought a huge supply of different metal filigrees and am just now starting to use them.  I created three pair of earrings using three different silver filigrees.  Their so pretty when they have gemstones and beads hanging from them and I really enjoyed making them.

I'm going to be on a roll making these types of earrings and also hope to start making some of bangle bracelets with beading work.

Exciting things are happening now over at The CraftStar and you can find my jewelry, including these earrings, in my shop Ivonnardona's Creations.

They are growing with leaps and bounds and have now added "Forums".  If you aren't already selling there; you need to open shop now.  They also have a dedicated team that posts your items for free to various social networks including Twitter, FaceBook, Pinterest, Wanelo, etc.

I'm super excited to see the growth and to be a part of a growing "handmade" community that is dedicated to not letting anyone get lost in the crowd.
