Inspiration: I am giving away a necklace in the month of September to a ckient of my bead store www.magpiegemstones.com
My client's are amazing people. Many have become friends and their warmth and friendship as well as their immense creativity makes me happy to wake up every morning and get to work. In trying to think of a way to repay them I thought of making a necklace out of the best labradorite I have and giving it away.
This is what manifest itself on my work bench when I went at the task.

Inspiration: Some dear friends of mine gave me a gift certificate last Christmas for a Bead of the Month club held on Live Journal by a bead jewelry artist Elise Mattesen. She has a great sense of whimsy, style and color and the assortment of beads included some great finds.
I'd been looking at these beads for months trying to decide what to do with them and failing, but a recent cleanup and re-organization of my beading area brought those gift beads into close proximity of some other favorites of mine and voila! I just looked at them and the design just happened.

My Creation Details Materials Used:
Charms & Pendants •
Pearls
Colors:
Yellow
Inspiration: This might sound silly, but I had the pearls on my table with the jade and I was trying to figure out what to do with the pearls.Here's the silly part the pearls and the jade told me. I was going to make one strand of the two combined, but it tripled in size. The pendant was an add on later. Which in the end I decided to make it removable. That way the necklace can be worn two different ways.
