I haven’t touched my camera in a few days because there has been a lot going on behind the scenes, so no Weekend Photos in Review tonight.
A few days after the kids and I got to meet Tori Spelling, I received an e-mail asking if I wanted to check out her new jewelry selections. Um, yes, please.
A massive overstuffed box arrived, filled with all sorts of necklace and bracelet pieces and pendants galore. I asked a fellow crafty friend of mine, Lisa, to join me in delving into the goodies. Mystic’s daughter and Madeline joined in the fun as well.
Her line is divided into four different collections (Boho, Glam, Glitz, and Noir) and you can mix and match between them (*the pieces in this post are from the Boho and Glam collections). The thing that I love most about the line? It is completely customizable. You choose the necklace “toppers” and necklace “bottoms” and put together a look that is completely your own. The line also features things called “bracelet builders,” and you use those pieces to create a piece of jewelry that works best for you.
The pieces were very easy to assemble, even the kids did it with ease. The line is definitely very current (Mystic’s daughter is 18 and her friends at school loved the necklace she put together), and you can make many statement necklaces, which seems to be all the rage in beauty magazines and runways these days.
Some of the bracelet builder pieces were a bit inflexible, making it difficult to work with, like these:
Some of the hooks to attach the pendants were a bit thin and broke easily, so work with them carefully.
You can attach a brooch to a necklace for a little something different, like so:
We thought having more options within the different finishes would be awesome. For example, if you had a necklace bottom that was an antique gold color, you want to have options for a matching antique gold topper. And likewise with bronze, silver, and so on.
This pendant was my favorite piece:
