JG Beaded Jewelry is Back Online - New and Improved!!



Well folks, after being offline for several months and working behind the scenes to bring to you a much needed face-lift to JGBeadedJewelry - it is finally back online!! (Champagne corks popping!).
I've had to learn quite a bit about the new system and find it to be significantly easier to use administratively and user friendly for you! Some images have changed (note the pretty flowers and butterflies above), but the original template was kept in tact since I loved it so much. Also, I didn't want returning visitors to be thrown off with a whole new look! I am positive that the ease of use, navigation and additional features will make the user experience simple (I like simple).
You can now filter by price, search for exactly what you are seeking, find the sales and gifts under $10 with a simple click and see what our latest promotions are. 

Keep in mind that custom orders are always welcomed, so if you don't see what you are looking for, please contact me with your request. I love making special one-of-a-kind pieces for people and it also opens my mind to new ideas!
In case you aren't aware, I love to give things away and have a monthly drawing for free jewelry, crystal suncatchers and other unique gifts. You can enter on the website and on Facebook (by "liking" the page). Double your chances by doing both!
Customer service is my top priority along with quality care and craftsmanship, so rest assured that when you place an order with me at JG Beaded Jewelry it will ship fast with tracking information! You can read feedback from customers about my products and services in my Etsy shop. Satisfaction is very important to me, so if you are not happy with your purchase, please contact me right away so we can make it right!
Your feedback is always important to me, so please drop me a note any time. I will respond to you as soon as physically possible.
Thank you for the loving support and encouragement, without you I wouldn't be able to do what I love best (besides being a mom to my wonderful teenager)!!

My best to you and yours,
Sharon

Since the weather is warming up ~ I'm going to give away another ankle bracelet. There are plenty of ankles out there that could use a little adorning! This time around I will be giving away an "African Turquoise and Hematite Anklet". Winner will be picked at the end of the month and I will make the size necessary to fit the winner (or whoever the winner chooses to give it to!)
Currently there is only one way to enter:

Crystal Suncatchers, Prism Crystals, Rainbow Crystals, Crystal Car Charms, Decorations and Ornaments

and



and 

Working with crystals is one of my favorite crafty pastimes and lately I have been crystal crazy. I swore that I'd limit purchases for a while, but when I got the call that my crystal guy was in town, I was out of the house and on the way to meet him within 15 minutes! I was glad that I did because I came home with over 80 colors, shapes and sizes of faceted crystal beads to embellish the crystal suncatchers with. When I  pulled out the prism crystals to create a few pieces with I realized that my color stock was dwindling...so I made a call to order up more! Yes, I'll be the first to admit that I am addicted, but in my mind it is not a problem. There are much worse things to be addicted to! Besides, if it isn't hurting anyone (for instance not having food for my family or money for bills) and makes everyone happy (me and happy recipients) then no harm is done - right? Right!
So anyway, now my prism crystal collection ranges from clear with Aurora Borealis hues (pictured above), clear, light/cobalt/sapphire/teal blue, light purple, green, pink, red, light topaz and dark topaz (golden) in several different sizes. The 20mm and 30mm crystals are perfect for rearview mirror car charms, but I wouldn't recommend anything bigger unless you don't mind cracking the windshield on sudden impact (yikes)! I had a lady order a 60mm crystal suncatcher only to ask if she could return it for a smaller size because it was too big for her car! Of course that was no problem, but I would have recommended a smaller size if I knew what she was intending on using it for. Honestly, once you go bigger than the 30mm crystal, they are much better to hang in a sunny window, the sun porch, the office, the nursery or anywhere you'd like a little visual stimulation. Right now, I have three in the window that gets the morning sun and it brightens my day when the rainbows are showing their colors on the walls and floor. My cat looks at them for a while then pounces and that makes me laugh even more.
If you don't want the rainbow effect and just a colorful crystal window decoration, I would suggest any other color prism crystal besides the clear with Aurora Borealis coating, as that gives off rainbows to the fullest.
Did I mention that I love to do custom orders? Yes, you pick the crystal color, gemstones, beads, charms or whatever your heart desires and we can work together on coming up with something suitable for you. I'll email you a picture and if you like it then it's yours. If you don't then someone else can have it and we try again!
Crystal suncatchers are a great gift - even for a guy! It doesn't have to be shiny as I have many beads and gemstones that are perfect for men. You can find my crystal suncatchers and rearview car decorations and charms at www.JGBeadedJewelry.com or in my Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/JGBeadedJewelry
I accept PayPal and Money Orders on my website and Etsy accepts PayPal, Credit Cards, Gift Cards and e-checks. If you wish to use a credit card and see something on my website that is not listed in my Etsy store, please send me a message as I am happy to make a special listing for you. I am pretty quick at responding so you shouldn't have to wait very long.
Keep in mind that I can ship anywhere with a personal message from you if you are in a hurry to get a gift somewhere fast! All orders and customers (you) are important to me and I will ship your item(s) as fast as physically possible (usually within 24 hours or less) and email you the tracking information.
In the past, international orders were shipped via "standard mail" but once the package leaves the US it can no longer be tracked, therefore, I have changed my shipping policies to ensure delivery. The downside to that is that it costs quite bit more but if I can save money on shipping, I am happy to refund the excess amount. If you are willing to have your international order shipped standard mail, I am happy to calculate exact shipping charges, but please note that I cannot be held accountable for lost packages. I have not lost one yet and would like to keep it that way (knock on wood)!
Well, that's it for now folks...
Shine on!
