And some closer ups...
This necklace includes a limpet shell I found on the beach at St Ives and I've sprayed it with silver paint, very effective! The charms are sterling silver with labradorite coin beads and a swarovski mix.
The earrings are amazonite with antique brass wire and smokey quartz crystal beads.
This bracelet is made with lampwork beads from CeeGee designs and the focal is a piece of sea glass that my daughter and I found on the beach.
Some earrings to match the bracelet and some large hand wrapped kidney wires with lampwork beads from Anastasia Beads.
A bracelet made with pewter skull beads, Rose quartz rounds and a Rose quartz skull bead from Buffys Beads at Carnaby Street, London.
An amethyst bracelet stung on silver wire with a bling magnetic clasp.
And my daughter's favourite, crystal wrapped hair grips inspired by the lovely Rebecca Anderson of Songbeads.
Finally, a bracelet made with antiqued brass wire, pressed glass leaves and flowers with a beehive focal from Kylie Parry.
Thank you to Heather of Humble Beads, this challenge really focussed my mind!
Great job and you picked a color scheme I really, really love:-)
