Ahhhhh, breath deep the wondrous air! That’s Spring! That is
the wonderful, fresh, clean, sneeze, sneeze, ahchoo..pollen laden air!
Heck, I don’t even mind the pollen this year! We didn’t have
a hard Winter, but I took it hard. Sickness and heartbreak all through the
Winter months was enough to give me the blues, so… This is something that is
soooo welcome to me!
This piece was inspired by the purple leaves that I received
from my bead partner from a Swap and Hop, Alicia. She sent them as well as the
little pointy polymer clay flowers and I knew immediately what I wanted to
make…
This is a bead embroidered bib style necklace. I used glass,
polymer clay, metal, and stone in the piece, especially the ‘chain’ part of the
necklace. I loved some of the beads that I received from my partner, the
amethyst Czech glass beads and used them in the chain, as well as the pretty
silver floral clasp that I bought a while back. I actually bought a whole
package of them and keep using them sparingly. I know they aren’t special
really, but… darn it, I love those things! I’d use them on every necklace,
bracelet and if I could figure it out, earrings as well!
So here is the necklace.
