Beauty of Spring Necklace
A little behind on my blogging for beads... but I am finally posting.
The theme this time around was "The Beauty of Spring". I decided on these lovely "Peek-a-Boo" porcelain beads from Artbeads. I also used a variety of Swarovski bi-cone beads, in different blues and greens. I wanted something that had some layers, yet was light and airy feeling. This is what I came up with.
I love the combination of colors, which made me thinks of blue skies and new green leaves. Seemed perfect for spring. Or summer, even, because it's kind of a beachy combination, as well.
I have worn it a couple times and get good comments on it. It was fun, a little different than my usual stuff.
Go here: Blog for Beaders, to see more designs and some fun projects.
Necessary Legal Stuff: I have received the above mentioned products from Artbeads.com and am honestly reviewing them. I have not been paid for my endorsement.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful job combining them with the blues and greens. You are right, they remind me of the beach, and I love blues and greens together!
ReplyDeleteWicked pretty. I don't wear jewelry, but if I did, it would be something like this.
ReplyDeleteOooh, Tera! This is a beautiful design! Love the combo of the delicate bi-cones with the larger beads. The colors are very calming. And matching earrings! Weeeeeee! Gorgeous work!
