On my way to San Francisco Today I opened the internet browser on my phone to check on my social networks and stores, OMG !!!!!!! What A surprise for me when I opened my Etsy Store Inbox and found out I had one of my items “The Green Diva”Treasured by Mom Gen Craft Corner.

It is my first treasury on Etsy and I really hope that doesn’t stop there, that many others will come, but I will not only hope, I will work for that and will keep on putting all my love on each piece I start and making them using the only tools I’m really good with, my own hands.

The treasury is called The Green, Green Grass of all and there are a lot of other items equally handmade like mine that together or by themselves make wonderful treasures and the prettiest of Valentine’s gift, so go take a look at this magical advice of our friend Mom Gen Craft Corner cos she really knows what she’s talking about. ^_^

Jewelry boxes are a ”must have item” for ladies and jewelry lovers in general, some traditional, some chic, and others that are perfect for people who prefer to break away from everyday storage solutions in favor of a more individual and modern fashion look. Any one of these jewelry boxes I found on online Stores would make a fantastic gift for yourself or that someone special.

Pandoras Box

Pandora’s Box is a one-of-a-kind (OOAK) creation hand-sculpted ZephyrDreamsDolls on Etsy without the use of any molds. This piece was created using many of the fantastic techniques of artist Jean Bernard. Pandora’s box is constructed of Apoxie-Sculpt and polymer clay over a wooden base. The box is embellished with countless gold and blue microbeads and high-quality glitter. Its surface has a rough texture, and it is painted with acrylics. The photos don’t adequately capture the subtle color and sparkle of the paint. The top of the box depicts a one-of-a-kind relief sculpture of a female face with flowing hair, hand-sculpted ZephyrDreamsDolls . The box is mounted on a strong wire frame, giving the appearance of tree branches, with pools of “water” sitting at its base. Check more images Here

Stand Jewelry Box

Standing Jewelry BoxThis 5 drawer wooden treasure box brings the flavor of the Southwest to you. It is covered in Turquoise and Copper paper. The paper on the drawers and top was designed byNandJDesigns on Etsy to coordinate with the paper on the sides. It is perfect to store your trinkets, jewelry or treasures. It can sit on your dresser or any other furniture in your home.

• Wooden box measures 10 1/4” tall x 4 1/2 wide x 3.6” deep
• Sides are covered with a collage paper that is copper with turquoise blotches.
•4 of the turquoise drawers are covered with custom designed copper and turquoise papers of harlequin, swirls, distress and crackle
• The edges are inked with copper luminescent ink to give the appearance of a distressed vintage design piece
• The drawer pulls wooden knobs painted with the copper luminescent ink.
• The piece is decoupaged and sealed for protection.

And the best of all, they can design any Treasure box to match your decor colors.

Lacquered Jewelry Box

Mother of Pearl Wooden Lacquer Jewelry BoxThis wooden jewelry box by Nacreart on Etsy depicts a serene image of cranes delighting in an idyllic moment under an old pine tree, a symbol of elevated consciousness and dignified spirit. The harmony between the colored Korean mulberry paper and the iridescence of the mother of pearl design makes it a memorable item for any collection.

Bone Jewelry Boxes

Bone Jewelry BoxThese Camel bone jewelry boxes are a display of artistic skill and aesthetic beauty. A unique blend of classic and contemporary art. An article that offers you a combination of style and utility. Found that at Gift4Shopping but careful, if you are an animal lover like me please make sure no animal had to be sacrificed to make that piece of art.

Embossed Leather Jewelry Box

Jose Antonio Rios (Peruvian, contemporary) and his family, “Colonial Garlands” Jewelry Box, 2003, tooled leather on plywood, velour lining, height 3.0 inches, diameter 6.3 inches, weight 0.4 lbs. A member of the Rios Family has tooled the leather with hammer and chisel, replicating foliate patterns of vines and garlands, reminiscent of Peru’s colonial epoch. Jose Antonio Rios said, “For us, embossing leather is a family tradition. My father inherited it from his father, and handed it down to us.”

Polymer clay Jewelry Box

Polymer Clay Jewelry Box Covered with a mixture of gold and brown Premo! which was textured with a basket-weave texture sheet from Studio by Sculpey. The flowers and strawberries were then hand-sculpted with Premo! as well by Laura Griffin

This weekend I was so in a mood for handmade that even after hours of working with custom orders I still had the mood and pleasure to make something else to put up in my store, and here we have “bloomed” from my hands this fancy pair of dangling earrings made with lustrous Swarovski pearls into a hand coiled sphere of sterling silver measuring all in all 12 to 15mm and 1″ long. Enjoy it in my Etsy Store3

Swarovski Crystal Pearls are perfect imitations of natural pearls.
Each Swarovski Pearl begins with a crystal sphere that gives the pearl its ideal weight, hence the name Crystal Pearl. Then, each Swarovski Pearl bead is uniformly coated with iridescent, mother-of-pearl like layers. The even coating combined with the crystal base of the pearl beads give them a luminosity and luster similar to that of real pearls.

As a piece of jewelry, Swarovski Crystal Pearls feel good to the touch and and offer that sensual experience valued by pearl enthusiasts. As with natural pearls, Swarovski Crystal Pearls adjust to skin temperature.

The advantage of Swarovski Pearls to real pearls is that these pearls are abrasion-proof, resistant to perfume, perspiration, electroplating, UV light and scratches. They can be washed and dry cleaned.

Have you ever wondered what makes a necklace or bracelet strand of natural pearls so valuable? The actual quality of the individual pearls is only one small part. The real value and beauty comes from the careful selection of a few pearls, from among thousands, that are the same shape and size.

With jewelry made using crystal pearls from Swarovski you can have this same consistency, and because the crystal pearls in your necklace, earring, bracelet, or choker is covered in mother-of-pearl like layers, they will look like the most expensive pearls you can buy, but at a price that is slightly less expensive than my cultured pearl jewelry.
