Left overs!

This fall I received copper and stoneware products from ArtBeads.com from which I made a necklace, scroll way down...this is the left over product...because there was so much left I felt I should make something else with the pieces...here you have it! I couldn't seem to get this style out of my mind...sometimes you just have to go with it!

The three gorgeous stoneware beads have been wire wrapped with copper plated metal wire to each diamond, oval and circle link and the copper plated metal chain. I've added a few of my turquoise oval beads to continue the southern feel. Love turquoise...I have a difficult time staying away from it when I use copper...turquoise and copper feel right to me!

I'm very impressed with the stoneware beads they are substantial without being heavy and the color is consistent and vibrant. Love the copper/plated products...well made! I wanted to mention this as I've purchased stoneware beads and copper else where and I've not been happy with the quality of the product...you will find these are definitly a quality product.

Thank you Artbeads.com...
Enjoy your day.
Cheers

  4. A very nice mix and match!
    I have lots of left over and also some copper which I am beginning to love. First I got to sort them out first...spring cleaning :)
    Thank you for the inspirations.

  6. Love the colors in this necklace besides the blue turquoise. I agree with the others it certainly does not look like you put this together with the 'leftovers'. I like it very much. Have a great weekend.

  12. It's a beautiful necklace Heather! And sometimes you do just have to go with the flow..it's often surprising how beautiful pieces turn out when you let the design lead the way.
