Lampwork won out on the coin toss up!
The beads are beautiful! Marcia Seever of ShaZazz Glass is the wonderful creator of these beauties! What beauties you might say .... well I did it again! I forgot to take pictures of the lampwork before I began - SIGH! ;)
Does anyone else relate to this "Problem"!!!!???? :)
It took me awhile to decide how to show off these beauties. In fact, I didn't come up with an idea until midnight last night! I think my muse was sleepy! ......... However, after much brainstorming & dragging out a bunch of beads & wire, she finally woke & ...... This is my newest bracelet!
(From left to right) The lampwork beauties are the first bead - brown & white swirl, the third bead - brown with black & orange, and the last bead that is multi-colors of blue, white, brown & orange (it actually reminds me of a fish. Aren't they gorgeous?! I added accents of turquoise, tiger's eye, brown Chinese crystals of different shades from ZnetShows , black Czech crystals, & a stone (the round grey with red) I found down in Mexico that I have no clue what it is.
Thank you Lisa!

What a great bracelet. And yes, I can relate to your problem. I had 2 sets and forgot to take pictures of both before I got started. I get too excited when I get the beads and just want to start on my project. :) But I love all the color and dangles in your bracelet. Glad your muse woke up.
ReplyDeleteVery different beads but beautifully tied together in your design, Karla!
ReplyDeleteSwingy sweet. Love you added movement to it.
ReplyDeleteWell done! Your have a wonderful bracelet.
ReplyDeleteThis bracelet came together beautifully, Karla! I have the same challenge - I get so excited to make something that I forget to take a photo of the beads. Thanks for being in the hop!
ReplyDeleteWell this time I did take pictures...but....my computer crashed and I couldn't get to them of course...so I had to point them out in the finished piece....But love your piece...they seem work very well together.!
ReplyDeleteI remembered to take a photo of the ceramic....after I finished mine & I never take my work apart. We'll both remember in the future to get photos of what we received. Beautiful bracelet.
