BSBP Reveal
I just returned from a trip after being gone for 2 weeks. I worked on this necklace when I had a chance, which was only one day while I was away. I used the focal and the clasp with some of the beads she sent in this necklace along with, of course, seed beads! I am working on another piece using more of the pieces Holly sent me. I'll post it soon, so check back to see it.
The Bead Soup Blog Party was a lot of fun. This was truly a bit of a challenge for me using the focal bead, but I am happy with how it turned out. I love the copper color and the earthy tones in this with just a bit of glass in the combination. Nice selection Holly.
I just started looking at all the reveals and love the diversity that's displayed. Such beautiful beads and nice work. Great eye candy! So inspirational. I love reading all the blogs and feeling so welcomed by the authors. Thanks so much to Lori for creating this great opportunity to meet such wonderful and talented people. Please check out the beautiful works here. And go see what my partner Holly at Silverrose Designs created with the beads I sent her. I love what she did!

Wow, this is so gorgeous! I love how you combined your seed beading with the focal.
What a STUNNING necklace! I love it!
Wonderful! Love the focal!!
Barbara, you did a great job working with the focal. I wouldn't have known you'd found it difficult to work with if you hadn't said anything - you've come up with a beautiful, well designed piece of jewellery. Great job!
Yes I can see what you mean by a challenge with the focal but you did a GREAT job. I also like the glass beads on either side of the focals- Your second piece is nice also. I am glad you had fun.

Ok so I looked at the close up and those are NOT glass beads on either side of the focal- they are Peyote beaded beads with lentils. I simply MUST know how to make them...Is that something you can share with me/us???? PLEASE!

That focal is great and I like the dangles you put on it to enhance it. Very nice
you did a great job of pulling it all together :)I'm not much for beaded beads ( probably because I couldn't make the darned things to save my life >.< )but I really love the rest of it :)
Both of your designs are beautiful! The color combinations and designs perfectly compliment the copper components. Great job!
I love that you incorporated beadweaving into your piece - I'm a weaver too, so it's great to see how you blended everything together. Congratulations on a great necklace!
Great job!
This one is just great. Love the copper focal. ;-)
A very rich - rather royal - pice! Beautiful work!
That copper focal is wonderful, and I love what you've done with it!

Sorry I'm so late in visiting, but I've been hopping around all over the place. Fortunately for being late I was able to check out the new addition! Both of your pieces are really pretty. You did a great job with the soup from the wonderful Holly!
Beautiful and I really like the dangley bits! You did a Soup-er job with your Soup mix!
