Today I am joining up with Lisa from Pine Ridge Treasures for her My Favorite Things blog hop. She sent us a wonderful collection of beads, all of her favorites, and I can't wait to see what everyone made.
I of course forgot to take a picture of everything before I started. I received a lovely mix of rose quartz, crystals and pearls. I also received these beautiful beads, but I have no idea what they are.
They are pink and grey and just sparkle. The pictures don't do them justice. I have 2 of them left, I think they want to be a bracelet.
I hurt my neck and shoulder 2 weeks ago and it's been very hard to sit and make any jewelry. I did manage to finish one piece, but I still have so many ideas floating around in my head for the rest of the kit. I can't wait until it is better and I can make some more pieces.
Here is the necklace I made. I wrapped the focal with black steel wire. I was going to do a tassel at the bottom, but I really think I like it the way it is.
And another view

Nice necklace. I love the simplicity of it. Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteKim-I am hoping you feel better soon. I also love the simplicity of your necklace. Sometimes things are really too way over done for my liking.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty design Kim. :) I broke my shoulder back in December so I know just what you're going through....Baby your shoulder and neck and you will be back to normal in no time!
