More new work
I'm on a roll! I spent the weekend bringing some pieces to their happy completion.
I have to confess. have this annoying tendency to start numerous projects simultaneously and not finish most of them. Some I leave somewhere along the line because I don't like the outcome; In other cases a broken bead or the end of a thread is enough to make me put it down. Sometimes I make a focal item and then run out of ideas how to mount it, so I just leave it laying around until I get inspired. Plenty of reasons not to finish work. And then, one day I just get filled with the right kind of energy and ambition and there I am, completing one piece after the other. Today is such a day.
I made these three Kim's Flowers (by Kim Anderson) quite while ago and couldn't decide what to do with them. Until today:
I made this simple netted necklace a couple of day ago after seeing it in a workshop. I have no idea who originally designed it. Sometimes I just love simple and fast.
The last two pendants are my version to Colette's Serti Swirl. I totally fell in love with this design the moment I saw it on Colette's blog . In adition to being a most generous woman, Colette is a wonderful beader, with a unique style and technique. I adapted her schema to smaller beads and I think the result is beautiful. I hope the photos reflect some of their real beauty.
