Another necklace...


I can't stop....! After the 5 (yes, that's five) necklaces of the other night, you'd think I'd be all necklaced out. But no. After reading Jo Tinley's post (daisychain designs, see my blog roll) earlier today, I was inspired to make another. Jo mentioned using some Outwest lampwork discs as pendants. I then found one whilst sifting through the many layers of beads on my tiny bedside bead table, and a couple of hours later - here it is! Necklace no. 6. An unusual colour scheme for me but I like that about it. It's good to break out of my turquoise/aqua/teal colour scheme every now and then :-)



Outwest lampwork disc, Czech glass, wooden rounds and copper wire.

A new necklace

One of my new purchases from last week is a lovely clay bunny pendant from Kylie Parry (who's having a special sale today only - hop over to her blog or facebook page for more details) and I knew I had to keep this one for myself...I have made myself a simple (very simple for me!) necklace combining the pendant with some pretty turquoise beads - a couple of vintage Vaseline glass rondelles, a couple of semi-precious and a tiny blue Czech rondelle. All strung on some pretty cool Vintaj chain...I don't use loads of chain in my designs but I'm thinking perhaps I should include more....hmmm....


Pretty crappy photo I know (tried a new spot I thought would work well for these....it really didn't...) but hopefully you get the idea! I think necklaces are just the hardest to shoot, I just don't know where to hang them....


This one is a little better. I love this wee girl! She's so very sweet. SO nice to have a piece of bunny jewellery that isn't all cutesy etc. The necklace goes with the majority of my wardrobe (mainly on the blue-green spectrum...) and yes, it's another teal and brown piece....what can I say, they just go so well together! 

Hope you're all having a great weekend.
