New Ideas

I had a friend ask me about a month ago to make her a necklace of a mixture of colors, I was having such a hard time coming up with an idea. I made three different versions of the first idea I had and didn't like it at all. Needless to say I took those apart and tried to start again, although it wasn't very easy. I have come to find that its easier to be creative when I don't have anything in mind and can just sit and do what I feel like at the time. Needless to say it was a couple of weeks before anything marvelous came to mind, this is what I came up with:
I really like how it turned out!! I chose the colors she wanted and some beautiful silver chain and started to wound wire through the beads and around the chain. This took a long time to do compared to other styles of jewelry I have done but I believe the beautiful look is well worth the work! I like doing it so much that I decided to make a bracelet following the same guidelines. I love the bracelet even more!!!
