In celebration of springtime, all petite style earrings have been marked at either 50% or 60% off! Most earrings are limited edition or limited in quantity -so you won't want to miss out on this chance to own a Crystal Allure Creations original.
But hurry, the sale is for one week only and ends Easter Sunday (4/7/07).
Happy Shopping!
Everyone Should Sparkle At Their Prom!!
Wednesday, March 14, 2007
I am very proud and happy to be a part of my own town's community prom effort (you can read more details by clicking on the link below). Michele Child (aka, Mia) had a wonderful idea...through her blog, she has managed to pull together friends and neighbors to raise money to send two deserving girls to the upcoming prom.
As soon as I read about this, I signed up! I am excited to be offering my custom jewelry design services to this effort. As I said above -everyone should sparkle at their prom! I can't wait to see what dresses are chosen and I look forward to designing custom swarovski crystal jewelry for these two lovely ladies. It's probably a good thing they are both from different school districts because with all the sparkle they'll be displaying that night, the two won't be able to be in the same room together!
Stay tuned for more details and the final designs......

The Glittering Facts About Swarovski Crystals
Tuesday, February 06, 2007
pronounced: Swore-off-ski
Swarovski crystals are glitzy yet affordable and currently Swarovski offers more than 100,000 different shapes, colors, sizes, and facet styles, and their collection now includes more than 50,000 different articles.
~ The word crystal is based on the Greek word krystallos, derived from kryosk, meaning icy cold.
~ Performer Liberace had a piano encrusted with Swarovski crystals.
~ Marilyn Monroe wore a skin-tight evening gown dripping with 6,000 Swarovski crystals while singing "Happy Birthday" to John F. Kennedy at Madison Square Garden in 1962. This dress fetched $1.2 million at a Christie's auction in 1999.
~The replicas of the British Crown Jewels are made with Swarovski crystals.
~ Swarovski was also a sponsor for The Phantom of the Opera (2004 film), in which the "standing model" of the chandelier was composed of Swarovski crystals. A Swarovski shop window is also visible later in the film.
I honestly don't know if I could even make a guess at my current Swarovski inventory -that's how big it is! Although I will admit I do remember most of the items listed above that used Swarovski crystals -guess that is what made them so memorable in the first place. Which is why virtually all my jewelry designs incorporate Swarovski crystals in some way, or are entirely made using them.

Valentine's Day Jewelry
Friday, February 02, 2007
Where do the days go? I love the month of February for two reasons. The first is because I hold a special preference for amethyst jewelry (being a February baby myself) and of course there is Valentine's Day.I've been so busy working extra hard to get additional features on the website store for you. Just about all of the earrings now have a customization feature on them. Necklaces are next and then bracelets. It's an arduous task but one I enjoy because I know how much I love to customize my jewelry and now I can offer you the same. This new feature makes Crystal Allure Creations unique to other online designers. It's jewelry -your way!
One task always weighing heavily on my mind is better quality pictures -really, I promise they are forthcoming!
Now, the reason for my post. Valentine's Day. Who says you have to wait for someone to buy a gift for you. Get your special piece in advance, while supplies last, at Crystal Allure Creations. To make it easier to find all these adorable and sparkling treasures of love, I've set them apart from the rest of my pieces. You can find everything available for this lovely day under the "Valentine's Day" link in the menu. Just look at the beautiful Hugs n' Kisses bracelet above!
If you want a head start on February birthday gifts -check out the Double Classic Petite Crystal Earrings. And as always, don't forget while you're there to check out the February Sale -new items have been added.
Happy Shopping!
