Here's where I post new jewelry, experiments with new materials and techniques, or talk about conventions I've been to. I might talk about brick and mortar stores or online shops where I've bought fun stuff, give an occasional review and also some ramblings about the progress (or lack of it) towards turning a hobby into a part-time business.

Saturday Extra: Lucite Flower and Leaf Necklace
Created this today, using Czech glass faceted rondelles and flower beads, freshwater cultured pearls, non-tarnish gold artistic wire in 24 gauge and lucite flowers and leaves. I still have to add the clasp, it'll be 17 or so inches with a short extension chain.
I received these lucite flowers and leaves from The Beadin' Path and they must be sold out, can't find links to them. I believe the flowers are contemporary German lucite (here's what I think are the same style in 'celery') and that the leaves are contemporary German lucite Beech leaves (here's what I think are the same style in deep grass green).
Sorry the picture isn't the best, it's late afternoon and the light isn't good. I am really happy with how the necklace turned out, though.
I don't think this could be any more perfect!! GREAT design & execution!! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm trying not to be totally smug about it, but I'm very pleased.
