I've been playing with jewelry -specifically a more intense form of beading. I purchased a copy of Bead and Button Magazine and now I'm hooked. This blue necklace was playing around with tube beads. I'm still looking at ways to improve it. I like the geometric look but the necklace bows in the middle. The bowing makes a neat three dimensional effect but doesn't quite save the piece.
The pink necklace is me playing with beading around a pearl. I like how the colors accentuate each other well . Unfortunately, I used gold beading wire which doesn't like to stay tight like the mono-filament. All in all, I like how adding smaller beads to a larger round bead turned out. I will definitely continue playing with this design.
