Happy New Year! I
hope the New Year brings you much peace, happiness, health and prosperity.
For the challenge this week I got out my bead stash and
decided to use some of the beads that I have been thinking about for a
while. I bought these rectangular shell
beads a couple of months ago along with the leaf charms intending to make
“something” with them. The idea floating
around in my head was either a necklace or some earrings. When I put the beads on my bead board the
necklace just seemed to fall into place.
I didn’t have to change it around, the way I placed the beads the first time is the necklace
that is shown in the picture. That doesn't happen often.
Sometimes I struggle with a project, switching the beads
around or adding or taking away beads, but this one was there the first time
and the thing is I like it very much, I hope you do too. The rectangles are mother of pearl, the
pearls are glass beads, the leaves and the clasp are antiqued silver. The
necklace is 18 inches long and drapes nicely when hanging. The clasp is called “Del sol” and finishes
off the necklace with flair.
This piece will be on my website within the next few
days. I will also be adding many pieces
of jewelry to my website in the month of January. Since my stock was depleted during the
holidays my goal is to put a total of 30 new pieces up there, so check often.
Here is my web address www.jewelrybydm.com stop by and
see if there is anything you want.
Have a great weekend!
