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

Almost everything copper!

I bet you thought I forgot...yes & no, kind of, not really, you get the picture!!!

Here are the gorgeous copper components from Artbeads.com I received the end of April...I can't believe it has been that long...gotta love that company for their patience!

It took awhile bit I've finally finished the necklace...I started wire wrapping the turquoise rice beads to the circles probably back in June, but put it away when I moved and there it sat until last Friday...only took a short while to complete!

As you see below...I started with the three 32mm copper plated pewter circle links, I wire wrapped turquoise rice beads I had in my stash, to the links...then wire wrapped the gorgeous double star, attached the square & oval links spacing them with the same turquoise rice beads...then attached everything to the copper plated metal chain...this is really nice sturdy chain, I was very pleased with it. All the copper pieces are good quality, with a substantial feel to them, you won't be disappointed!

The necklace that emerged is not what I had in mind...things often happen that way, I went with the idea regardless!

I've used everything but one each, of the square and oval links and the three pretty stoneware beads...I also have some of the chain left...I'm going to make a second necklace with what is left...soon!!!

Thank you to Artbeads.com for allowing me the time I needed to take this summer!!!

Enjoy your week...
Cheers

PS...I'm still trying to find the "right" spot to take my photos!!!
