My partner for the 6th Bead Soup Blog Party was Linda of Must-Haves Jewelry.
The pieces she created from my bead soup ingredients are amazing.
Here's the soup she sent me.
I used the special closure and blue rounds Linda sent with
reclaimed wood, rose quartz and green stone beads.
I used the blue coral beads with a wooden bird pendant,
its matching beads, and a clay leaf .
The blue pearls Linda sent looked great with these yellow beads
I had just picked up.
Finally, I used two of the lampwork beads with reclaimed metal tags.
I kept the earrings pretty simple to accentuate the beads themselves.
Here's the other participants for the first reveal.

ReplyDeleteI love the colors! You did a wonderful job with your soup! Thanks so much for participating and I hope you do again!
ReplyDeleteI really love how you worked with the soup ingredients you were sent. I especially like the bracelet and earrings you made. Did you use the focal you were sent or did I miss that somehow? Either way, you definitely made some nice pieces.
ReplyDeleteI have ideas for other beads in the soup but ran out of time to make those projects. I was going to use swirled lampwork focal but the metal loop popped out and I haven't repaired it yet.
DeleteOh NO!! That's such a shame. I was wondering if something had happened to it. It's so pretty that I figured you had lots of ideas for it. :)
DeleteNice work.
ReplyDeleteGreat work - love the necklace with the wooden bird pendant!

I was looking for that focal too, and I read where the bail broke. I was wondering where it was! I loved those lampwork beads, and I guess that's why I love the earrings the most! The bracelet is pretty cool too. You sure did make a lot of pieces.
ReplyDeleteI love your color combinations and designs. Well done!
