Rita with Toltec Jewels is definitely a "Jewel"! She sent out Sue Beads wonderful chicklets. Of course during all the traveling this summer & interruptions, I put my chicklet in a SAFE place & LOST it! I bet nobody is familiar with that scenario, are you?!!?
Anyway after days of searching & cleaning & going through piles, I found the cute little bugger; excuse me, CHICKLET; in with a pile of mail, fancy that!
Inadvertently I signed up for three blog hops to post on the same day. Normally that wouldn't be a problem but we also went out of town on this weekend for business in Houston, TX . So I've been trying to write the posts at the hotel & their internet is SO SLOW. Therefore, I apologize Rita for posting on Sunday instead of Saturday. At midnight last night I just couldn't wait for the internet to work any longer.
Your combined chicklet and haberdashery necklace is lovely. I enjoy seeing found objects be made into something beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI just came from the Haby Hop where I saw the whole set that goes with the bracelet. Great colors and textures and everything. :)
ReplyDeleteWOW! this is some gorgeous designing. Love the rich colors and your intertwining with another blog hop to create a collection.
ReplyDeleteSince the hop was actually supposed to be on Sunday, it looks like the hotel internet was just helping you a long. Great necklace. Love the color combo of the purple and orange.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous necklace, the chicklet just adds to the eclectic beauty of the piece!
ReplyDeleteWhat pretty colours and lovely design, Karla :)
ReplyDeleteAn eclectic yet pleasing combination of beads! Love it!
ReplyDeleteDear Karla,
ReplyDeleteI love your necklace with all the interesting additions. I would like to get better at eclectic but it is surprisingly hard work. I'd love to create something as interesting as this.
By the way, I got your message about my country hop. don't worry about it at all. Since it was in the middle of the summer I realize that some folks have to miss it because lives are so busy . I've come close to missing other hops so I understand completely.
What a great piece! I love all the different components and how you integrated all 3 of the challenges..... so IMPRESSIVE! =)

Love the mixture of beads and buttons here. Such fun, and a great conversation piece!
ReplyDeleteThere are so many ♥details showcased in this jewellery! Lovely warm colours, lovely design!
ReplyDeleteMmmm... purple! Love the chicklet you got and what you combined with it to create your lovely long chain necklace! That focal is really impressive too, as are the intertwined buttons. Guess I just love it all! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love me some fall colors, pretty multistrand and a fun piece.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to incorporate all three challenges! I really love your piece. I like working with buttons on occasion and have a stash to work from. Excellent work!
ReplyDeleteGreat design. Very unique and eclectic. I love the collection of colors.

Great piece. I love all the different textures. Still trying to get my wrist and hand to heal up enough to start making jewelry again and just hold on to things. Needs to heal quickly as I have jewelry to make for a wedding now.
ReplyDeletewonderful piece with so much rich colors and texture! that will be a fantastic necklace for the Fall!
ReplyDeleteso I wasn't the only one who lost...whoops, misplaced...my chicklet. I enjoyed your necklace cause each bead led to a different one which made it fun to go round and see what came next, like a merry go round, so you could be in the summer carnival blog hop too
