Bead Peeps Blog Hop Reveal

Today is the day!  Just a quick recap before we get started.  My partner was Shaiha of Shaiha's Ramblings.  Check the post before this to see all the lovely things I was sent.  This is what I sent her. (I used her picture since mine seem to have disappeared.)


ON TO THE JEWELRY!


This necklace used some of the little green flower beads and the purple ribbon to finish off a flower focal I made.


I gave the goddess pendant a watery home with tiny conch shells as well as stick and blister pearls in white and coin pearls in purple.  Hopefully this necklace will help me embrace my watery side (my least dominant element of the four.)


With this necklace I used the house focal with the green/blue glass, red rondelles, and the chain given to me by Shaiha. The only bits I added were the hematite beads to cover the crimps and the toggle clasp.  This piece will be a gift for my sister on my birthday.

I have a few other piece in the works.  I'm making a springy dangle bracelet using the yellow ceramic flowers as well as some more green flowers.  I'm thinking of using the blue glass bead caps in a pair of earrings.  I have no idea what I'll use the bow ties for, but we shall see.

Anyway, I'm off to class now!  I will be commenting on posts later on this evening.
