These are the latest two necklaces. I am always amazed at how different two necklaces can be when they both have the same lampwork beads. For those of you who don't know the term 'lampwork' - the largest beads in the necklaces are lampwork beads made by a local artist. The photo with the royal blue beads is brighter/clearer than the other photo. I really like the necklace with the turquiose color beads.
When I haven't written anything to post but I have new jewelry, it does give me something to put on the blog.
Gifts for Christmas are buzzing around in my head. There is another necklace being restrung on the beading desk. It was strung and ready for the clasp when I looked at it and decided I didn't really like it. It is more neutral colors. I have one half of it restrung.
The 'Web of Silver' bangle bracelets are fun and so easy to do. I think I posted photos of them before. Anyway, there are two of those awaiting the finishing touches.
We found two bead shops that were closing due to retirement of the owners. One in Pueblo, Co. and the other in Door County, WI. One place the sale was 40% off and the latter was 50% off. So I added to my supply of teeny, tiny seed beads and also found some crystal. I have lot of different type beads. Now all I need is time and inspiration. ;-D
