The Bead Soup Party Hosted by Lori Anderson, stop by her blog for all the details.

 My Creation

I used Labradorite nuggets, Czech glass and two leaves from Every Heart Crafts with a mix of metals.

The Thai silver pendant is on a small strand of leather strung with oxidized Thai silver. Two forged copper stripes,  copper beads, Thai silver beads and sterling silver chain in the body of the necklace with the beads.

I didn’t use any of the Czech glass or the crystals, I just kept going back to a more natural or organic look.

 

Please take time to check out more of the bead soup blogs. I have added a list of todays party. You can get a full list by going here.

Bead Soup Party

January 24, 2010

My beads from Aimg_4611drienne Campbell, who is my partner in the bead soup swap. I think she knows how  I like working with greens and I love rainforest jasper.  I will have fun making  a necklace with my swap beads. Its funny because I sent her greens too. Please stop by and take a look at Adrienne’s blog, she just had surgery on her hand. Hope you are having a fast recovery Adrienne

 I will be making my bead soup party necklace and the post early and setting it to publish on the 10th. Because I will be on vacation in Tucson. I am excited about getting to go again.

Be sure and check all the bead soup party blogs on Feb. 10th and see what everyone made. To see all blogs participating see Lori Anderson’ s blog
