Bead Soup Reveal!!

Hello everyone!! The magical day has come! You get to peek behind the green curtain and see what I've been cooking up over the past month :)

Straight off the bat, many apologies for not getting this out on time! We had terrible thunderstorms here last night along with tornadoes, so I was unfortunately delayed in my posting.

Many thanks to my partner, Brandy Thomason McNair who selected the amazing beads that I used for this piece! Her wionderful work can be found here: Bellavitajewelry.net and here: bellabitajewelry.blogspot.com.

I hope you enjoy this piece! Happy Bead Soup Reveal Day! Don't forget to check out all of the other participants' work on the previous post. They are amazing artists and have some phenomenal work!

  5. That's what they call a statement necklace! Pair that with a white sundress and head to Florida (and get away from the rain and tornadoes!)

    I hope you'll join me again next year!

  23. Wow - such a bright and happy piece! You did a great job of bringing the focal in focus without over-crowding it. Someone said 'fiesta!' - like Lori said: get your white summer dress and your necklace and find a fiesta down South, you'll be their Queen :)
