I Won, I Won!!

For once I actually won a giveaway prize and it's GORGEOUS! Carol Dean of SandFibers had her 3rd Just Be(ad)cause Giveaway and she picked me for one of the prizes!!! So, this is what I picked! I can't wait to get it! Yay!

Hair Cut

OK, here's the hair cut. Still not used to my exposed neck especially in the cold weather, but I do have a nice scarf!

Almost Finished!

I have completed the necklace part of my piece and I'm now working on the "pendant" part of it. It will be a slide that will "float" around the necklace and can cover the clasp so it will appear solid! I think it's going to be wonderful, but we'll have to see how it fairs against the stunning pieces that are already entered in the Midsummer's Night Dream challenge for July! There are some GORGEOUS pieces already listed!!

A Work in Progress

Finally, here are some pictures of my July challenge piece as I work on it. There are three sizes of beads in different shades of purple and deep blue. I've also included a photo of the embellishments I'd like to use...if I can figure out how to incorporate them!

Another New Piece

This piece is along the same lines as my keychains, but in necklace form. I really like the simplicity of it.

Opinions Please

Here is my latest piece for my shop and also for the November Etsy Beadweaver's Challenge themed "Caught in a Net". I haven't done netting for years, but found myself quite inspired when this idea starting forming in my little brain. This is the end resultHere is a little surprise with this piece. The main Japanese triangle beads used are only copper coated...they are actually a deep royal purple underneath!
Now, my dilemma...I have no idea what to charge for this piece and though I've temporarily named it "Her Majesty's Copper Lace", I'm not sure I want to use that title. I'd appreciate any and all input. THANKS!

Here They Are

Here's the two new pieces. I did get the photos taken yesterday and I did add them to my store, I just didn't get them here. Ah, well, better late than never!
