Here we are again. I have to say I do love this time of the month. This months reveal is brought to you by Linda of Linda Landig Jewelry.
Aren't these gorgeous? I did remember to get a picture BEFORE I completed my design this month.
For those of you who do not know orange is my favorite color. I only get to decorate with it this time of year and there are rarely components that use orange so I was extremely excited and in love with it. The other great part is that I had the exact matching seeds that have been waiting for just a component this special.
At first before I received it I thought I might do some bead embroidery , however Linda's glazing and colors are so perfect that I just couldn't cover any of it. On the cover of the newest Bead and Button magazine is a twisted herringbone using varying bead sizes that I thought would be perfect. As I always do I wanted a smaller chain so I used smaller beads.
I liked it but it just did not have enough. So it sat as I tried to figure out what I could add to give it the look I wanted. In the meantime I played with the colors and some other beads to create a matching bracelet. I had a design in mind but as I was stitching this is what I came up with.
I am having fun with it. It has the colors of just changing trees. So a funny thing happened when I was moving things around on my tray, I twisted the two ropes together a bit and it looked cool so I twisted them completely and I really like the look of it.
I did happen to run out of the green picasso 8/0's so I am waiting to order some to finish the rest of it and I am still trying to work out the connection.
I am so excited to see what everyone else has created. Hop on over to the Art Jewelry Elements blog to check them out.
