Regular readers of my blog will remember the gorgeous green swirly beads I won from lovely Jenn of Kanna Glass last month. Yesterday I decided I had been looking at the beads for long enough and was ready to make something with them. I knew I wanted to design something quite simple as the beads would be the main focus but I also wanted to feel there was a bit of 'me' in the design. Here are my Teardrop Earrings.
I took the above photo in my garden but believe me it wasn't easy as the weather has been very changeable today and I was running in and out of the house trying to dodge the raindrops! Then whilst I was waiting for the rain to stop I made this matching Teardrop Pendant.
Both earrings and pendant are now for sale in my Etsy shop.

ReplyDeletethe pieces are beautiful... you do have to 'sit' with beads in the back of your mind for a while sometimes... but when they whisper to you, it can be magic! the photography is really nice too - i love when art and nature collide...
ReplyDeleteKristin - those are gorgeous! As always, your silver wire-work is phenomenal. I love the way you used two varying bead sizes in the pendant. Your work is very striking!
