6th Bead Soup Blog Hop 3rd Reveal

It's after midnight in the East so I am going to post this from the Pacific Northwest....

 Well, the big day has  finally come. Here's  what  I made with the beads from  Bonnie  over at Jasper's Gems....  I was feeling like making a bunch of wrapped bead dangles.....  I used some  of  my  vintage  brass chain which I have been collecting for a long time.  I usually work in sterling silver or silver plate.  Some times I use copper wire...but not too often do I use brass.  I like how the brass goes with the blue.. 
Just love the big brass hand-forged nugget... it has so much depth!!!

The whole project took a lot longer than I had anticipated but well worth it!!  I even had enough beads to make ear rings and a bracelet.  I added some dark blue seed beads, some white dagger tubes (also vintage), a few brass balls and some small white seed beads..  I called the collection 
     
                      "VINTAGE  BLUES"

View all of the participants here at  Lori's 6th bead soup blog party..3rd reveal

                  Happy blogging!!!!!!!



Thanks to our super hostess Lori Anderson for all the work that she has done.

Very pretty-love the calming blue. That's my favorite clasp to work with - I use it in many of my designs.
