My bead partner Mowse sent me a bunch of lovelies. Visit her blog at: www.MowseMadeThis.blogspot.com
I love how all the colours go together.
Here is a photo of what I was sent:
The first piece that I made I used the lovely little mermaid sea shell that Mowse made. The clasp was a fabulous flower in pewter colour. I just had to combine the focal and clasp and added them to a vintage Lucite necklace that had all the colours of the beads/findings. I love the little flower beads and added them to my lamp work black head pins. The great matte purple barrel beads are another favorite.
I especially liked the beautiful pearls. Of course I always appreciate some bling as with the rhinestones. I kept this necklace simple and elegant. Great for an evening out. (not that I go to many fancy things)
I made a pair of earrings to go with the first necklace .
I then made a pair of earrings with the lovely flower beads, again on my own lampwork head pins and I used some of the Lucite beads from the vintage necklace.

The last pair of earrings were made with the fab silver balls and some pink rhinestone roundels.
I had hoped to get more done but just ran out of time as I was feeling under the weather for the past month and a half and am still on anti-biotics !!
