Tonight I decided I wanted to make a necklace with the gunmetal chain, gray freshwater pearls and gray (probably died) mother of pearl disks. I also used gunmetal finished eye pins, and a gunmetal finished filigree link.
I thought I'd beat my holiday cold, but today I started to get a scratchy throat again, so it might be coming back or I've picked up a new one, and if I get sick I might not feel up to either beading or writing about it if I do. If I don't post for a couple days, you'll know the reason.
Update! This was one of the things that found a home at the Potlatch SF convention I went to Feb 27 - Mar 1 of 2009. The buyer was someone who wears beautiful vintage clothes and this style and the gunmetal really appealed to her.
Hi Dawno, I'm impressed with the glamour of your gunmetal necklace. Pretty classy! Take care of yourself, the cold that's been going around is no fun...

Thank you, Dave - I often give industry presentations and I love to wear gray suits and I thought this piece would be a great accessory.
