Swarovski Crystals.....

Has anyone else heard of these crystals?! I know they are very expensive and that they make really nice bracelets, earrings, and necklaces.

I just found out about them myself not too long ago when my boss' mother had an open house with the jewelry she had made. I bought two bracelets that day. One for my each of my sisters, who really loved them. They were so pretty and the sparkle gets me every time.

Swarovski (yeah, I had no clue if you spelled it right or wrong when I read the title)

http://www.swarovski.com/index/

If you ever get a chance to visit their gallery on 5th Ave in New York- holy cow. sweet. My friend Greg was so bored when I spent 2hrs looking at everything.

I think this will be the mother's day gift for 2005:

Swarovski is wonderful! Very reputable company...

I have bought their temporary tattoo patterns all made of their crystals when I was younger for a night out on the town...they were fun!

They make beautiful products! Great gifts!

I gave a similar statue to my sister many years ago to add to her elephant collection. Swarovski has some pretty things.

Okay, its

Swarovski....my bad!

I'm thinking of starting a hobby on the side making bracelets and selling them. I have seen so many pretty bracelets. It would just be a little money on the side.

Swarovski is wonderful. We have so many of the figurines. My mom has gotten their christmas ornament for the past 12 years atleast. We first saw them when we lived in Italy.
My mom got a necklace and earning set one year that is absolutely beautiful. She let me wear it to my senior prom.

Swarovski crystals have a different sparkle to them... VERY pretty.

My friend just gave me her tiara that was sterling silver and Swarovski crystals that she wore for her wedding 3 months ago when I got engaged in October.. its my "smothing borrowed" for my wedding. It was so beautiful.. Swarovski crystals almost look like diamonds they are such good quality.

Just my opinion though..

I've seen bracelets with crystals in them.. very nice.. I have one that a friend made for me. They can be costly though..

I've been to Swarovski Crystal Worlds near Innsbruck, Austria & it is absolutely amazing. If you ever have a chance to go you must-even if just to see "The Giant" outside!
