|
Well, I'm trying to use all the fancy stuff I bought a little while ago. So far I've come up with these:
Freshwater pearls, faceted glass beads and some mother-of-pearl-thingies:
Blue stone and glass beads combined:
Tiger eye stone, glass beads and some freshwater pearls:
I feel that I haven't done too bad. What do you think?

Mine too, Toni. Guess the other ones will be gifts for someone who might like them.

It was a lot easier than I thought, so give it a try Bip! And share them with us of course.

Oh, how pretty! Tiger eye stones are so beautiful. I think I like the blue stone necklace or the fresh water pearls best though. I love necklaces that dangle.  Well done!

Thank you all for your nice comments. Since nobody has said (so far) that I've made a hash out of it, I might give some away as Christmas presents... If I dare, that is.

I think they'd make wonderful Christmas gifts. Not only are they beautiful, but they're handmade, which makes them that much more special!

I LOVE THOSE PEARLS!! I wouldn't be afraid to give them as gifts I think homemade gifts are really special because you thought of them way ahead of time, it's not something you rushed out to buy at the last minute. I admire your talent

Those are just wonderful I love all of them but the Tiger Eye is to die for.
