Happy Independence Day!!! I hope everyone enjoys their day off, how ever you decide to celebrate.  Here is a photo from the fireworks last year.

This one is cultured freshwater pearls and small crystal quartz.  This bracelets toggle is vermeil.

This bracelet is gold fill chain and cultured freshwater pearls with a gold fill lobster clasp.

This one is large cultured freshwater rice pearls and a vermeil toggle.

I will post the last four bracelets sometime soon.  I hope you have a great week!

It is getting very close to wedding season and I still have time for a couple more custom wedding so contact me today if you are interested.  This week I am working on my latest wedding and I am so excited because it is my first destination wedding.

Here are the earrings for the bride.  They are a KML Wedding one of a kind design.  Gold fill and round crystal quartz.

The bride told me she liked a design from the fall collection and I thought I would change the design just a little for her special day.

Here are earrings for the matron of honor, mother of the bride and groom:

All of these are finished in sterling silver:

Cultured freshwater pearls and crystal quartz:

This pair is crystal quartz, and cultured freshwater coin pearls:

This pair is just sterling silver chain and crystal quartz:

I just love the crystal quartz that I found for this wedding.  They just sparkles, and are some of the most beautiful stones that I have seen.

Next week I will blog about the bracelets for the bride.

How do you like the new blog design?  I owe a special thank you to William of Twenty 20 Media for the new design.  Have you seen KML Designs lately, that has also been redesigned by Twenty 20 Media?

I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine’s Day, do not forget about the special I am currently running.

Larimar is only found in the Dominican Republic.  It has an extraordinary blue appearance similar to the color of the ocean in tropical areas.

This unique Caribbean gemstone sometimes may be mistaken for turquoise.  I just love the color and what a great spring color!

Stay tuned to see what other stones, sterling silver and gold fill I will put with these larimar stones.

Happy  Valentines Day Everyone!  I hope you enjoy KML Designs February special.  I started it a little early.  Make sure to check out my website which has the current inventory listed.
