When, I seen that Heather Powers and Lorelei Eurto were having a beading challenge using beads that just so happened to be 40% off at Micheal’s…I had to get in on that sweet action!
You could only use the 7 beads they selected from Micheal’s plus two other bead types and your choice of pendant. When I create a piece, I really have to connect with the beads. So, I spend a lot of time just look at them…sketching out ideas before I every get busy with them. I knew for the pendant, I wanted to use one of the recycled game piece pendants that I make. As, luck had it I had one in my stash that was perfect with the colors.
Here is what I came up with: A breathe of glamour
Of course, I need a sweet little part of earrings to go with this necklace too!
Thanks for checking out my pieces. I can’t wait to see what everyone else has made!
Hugs,
Very Cool! Love the focal! Thanks for playing along!
I love your colorful pieces. The recycled game piece is so fun and so are those cute earrings
The colors in that focal are perfect for this challenge and the beaded connector makes for a great transition to the rest of your necklace. Really terrific!
Your necklace and earring set is adorable!
Wowza, wowza, wowza. Love those colours–they are so my style. You have become a beading queen.

You definitely connected with your beads and it turned into a delightful fun necklace and earring set!
You’re right the pendant is perfect! Adorable too. I can tell that you spent some time looking and contemplating, beautiful.
Delightful! You’ve done a great job at giving the color palette and beads life in both your necklace and your earrings! How fun! I love all the different techniques in the necklace and how you were able to blend everything harmoniously. Fantastic!
