Here is a sneak preview of my entry into Use the Muse III - an American beading contest run by talented bead artist Scarlett Lanson. All entrants purchase a kit which contains various elements but most importantly, a Muse which must be kept secret until the 'big reveal'. I emailed my entry - Autumn Jewels - this afternoon and am really pleased with my finished piece! It's quite a simple necklace but very often (and especially in beadwork) I think that simple works best. We are sometimes in danger of over egg-ing the pudding when working with beads and we can easily forget that less is often more. Hopefully in a few weeks I will have the complete piece to be able to show you...the Muse is beautiful and I can't wait to see all the other entries!! It's lovely to see what people create with the same ingredients.

It's lovely, can't wait to see the full necklace. Keep us posted, please
Very pretty - and the crystals have such sparkle, the simplicity of the design is a fabulous way to set them off.
Thanks guys!
Just from your sneak peek I know you're going to whip my butt! I can't wait to see the full piece. Good luck with winning!
