A Galaxy of Custom Earrings

Piece 55 is a tear drop pendant necklace on an 18 inch silver snake chain made with a tear shaped glass cabochon (19x32mm). This necklace was a custom piece for Wendy who requested an orange glitter tear shaped necklace. To create this look I used Kleancolor Sugar Coat which has iridescent glitter which is paired with Mode Diamonte which has the same iridescent glitter only much finer and smaller in size. These are backed with NYC Fire, a vivid and saturated orange.

 Piece 54 is a round necklace on an 18 inch silver snake chain and round silver bail made with a round glass cabochon (30mm). Another colour blocked necklace! I just can't help myself, I love the crisp change between different nail polish colours and finished! The blue used in this piece is Sally Hansen Spectrum which is paired with Kleancolor Metallic Green, the piece is backed with BYS Black.

Piece 53 is a round necklace on an 18 inch silver snake chain and round silver bail made with a round glass cabochon (30mm). This necklace has a gradient the moves from OPI Fly which is a saturated teal down to Australis Sweet Pea which is a gorgeous mint green.

Piece 52 is is a pair of drop earrings with silver plated earring loops and tear shaped glass cabochons (19x32mm). These are a custom pair of earrings made for a wonderful girl called Jo, she requested cosmic galaxy earrings and sent a picture that included a lot of plum pinks and deep blues. These earrings use several nail polishes including NYX Frizz Spots - a charcoal grey holographic glitter in 2 sizes which represent the stars and which flash different colours in the sun! TKB Pigment Cherika Moon is a pigment that moves from blue to magenta which has been layered with LA Girl Trilogy which is a plum metallic nail polish. To back the mix of colours and finish the galaxy I've used my favourite BYS Black. 

Piece 51 is an oval necklace on an 18 inch silver snake chain and silver backing made with a glass cabochon (30x40mm). This piece was IMPOSSIBLE to photograph so you'll have to rely on my attempt at describing it! This piece uses a colour shifting pigment called Chameleon Pigment which shifts from Green to Blue and is a super fine shimmer. The pigment is backed with Color Club Ms Socialite which is a pinky plumb colour.

The Nightmare of Milky Joe

I'm snuggled under 2 big blankets writing this post which seems incredible as I was sure that moving to Perth, Western Australia would mean wonderful warm weather all year round! I suppose winter is chilly no matter where in the world you are!

Piece 50 is a ring set on a silver adjustable band and is made with a 22mm deep dome glass cabochon. A rainbow explosion aptly called Over The Rainbow by Ulta3 with a collection of different sizes and colours of glitter combined. BYS Black helps the glitter pop.

Piece 49 is a ring set on a silver adjustable band and is made with a 18mm triangle glass cabochon with a flat top and rounded corners. Neon can be intense and even overpowering but by pairing China Glaze's Celtic Sun (neon yellow) with the subdued nude of Ulta3's Allure this ring becomes less intimidating. 

Piece 48 is a pair of drop earrings with silver plated earring loops and tear shaped glass cabochons (18x25mm). Subtle bling in the form of a gradient using OPI's Crown Me Already and a milky white custom Willow Street nail polish which I've called Milky Joe. Anyone who is a fan of The Mighty Boosh will revel in the coco-loco milkiness of these earrings and if you have no idea what I'm on about hop over to Youtube to check this out!

Piece 47 is a ring set on a silver adjustable band and is made with a 18mm triangle glass cabochon with a flat top and rounded corners. A segment of Hard Candy's Beetle is sliced between deep blue La Playa by Orly creating a laser beam of duochrome shimmer.

Piece 46 is a pair of hair pins with silver plated hair slides and 8mm glass cabochons. A fine glass fleck shimmer micro glitter gradient using LA Girl's Bronze Medal and backed by Ulta3's Purple Pumps which is a vibrant pinky purple.

It's All About the Colour Shifting Duochromes

Piece 45 is a ring set on a silver adjustable band and is made with a 22mm deep dome glass cabochon. This ring is indescribable and is by far the most popular Willow Street piece to date. It seems everyone is as captivated by the colour shifting wave of Max Factor's Fantasy Fire as I am. This ring shifts through a rainbow of colours from glowing red through golden to green and is backed by Ulta3 Spring Break.

Piece 44 is a pair of hair pins with silver plated hair slides and 8mm glass cabochons. A very unique name for this nail polish: Pinky Brown! A duo chrome shimmer nail polish from the Models Own Beetlejuice collection, paired with BYS Black.

Piece 43 is a pair of stud earrings with 925 sterling silver earring posts and 8mm glass cabochon. A favourite glitter which has appeared in several Willow Street pieces, China Glaze's Prism is an explosion of glitter and duochrome.

Piece 42 is a ring set on a silver adjustable band and is made with a 18mm triangle glass cabochon with a flat top and rounded corners. This ring was IMPOSSIBLE to photograph! The colour shift of Ozotic 508 is breath taking but also frustrating to photograph! So many colours in this nail polish and the rounded triangle is such a nice way to showcase it! Backed by BYS Black as usual for most of my colour shifting nail polishes!

Piece 41 is a pair of stud earrings with 925 sterling silver earring posts and 8mm facet glass cabochons. The incredible duo chrome, colour shifting nail polish used for these earrings is Ozotic 505 which shows an absolute rainbow of colours which are accentuated by the facet shape of these cabochons and enhanced by BYS Black.

Glitter and Gradients

Piece 40 is a tear drop pendant necklace on an 18 inch silver snake chain made with a tear shaped glass cabochon (18x25mm). A bold stripe of China Glaze's Prism strikes through China Glaze's First Mate. This pendant is a grown up way to wear glitter and the duochrome shift in Prism is the icing on the cake!

Piece 39 is a pair of hair pins with silver plated hair slides and 8mm glass cabochons. The gorgeous glitter in these hair pins is Chunky Holo Fuchsia by Kleancolor and is a duochrome glitter that shifts from a glowing pink to a vibrant green and is backed by Ulta3's Purple Pumps. These hair pins will absolutely glow in the hair and catch the light and catch people's eye!

Piece 38 is a pair of stud earrings with 925 sterling silver earring posts and 8mm glass cabochons. These earrings are Snowcone by Orly (pale blue) and Purple Pumps by Ulta3 (purple) in a gradient.

Piece 37 is a tear drop pendant necklace on an 18 inch silver snake chain made with a tear shaped glass cabochon (18x25mm). I love to use colour blocking and anything with mint green is A-OK with me! This pendant has a mint green called Sweetpea by Australis (an Australian cosmetics company) and looks like it has been dipped in Victorian by Revlon which is a jelly polish that is slightly translucent.

Piece 36 is a pair of stud earrings with 925 sterling silver earring posts and 10mm facet glass cabochons. These earrings are made with a TKB duochrome pigment called Marinda Star which moves from a golden yellow to a vibrant pink. To really make the colour shift pop these earrings are backed with BYS Black.
