Cleo is open for review

Cleo is completed!!!
She is a beauty!
I could not get a good shot of the tiny details.   This necklace consists of five tubes of the tinyest bead (size 15's) & two tubes of a tubular bead called a delica, along with numerous Czech beads for a focal point. 
It was so very time consuming but worth it all in the end.  It is a dressy necklace, with all of the its sparkle and Czech beads.  I have NO where to wear it, even though I love it so much.  (Therefore, I will be putting it up for sale, if you are interested.)  It just needs a good home and a fun place to wear it!
My first attempt of taking a photo is on a dress form I found for, (guess who?) 

 LuLu of course!  (http://coastalsistersnews.blogspot.com)
What do you think, LuLu, does she wear my necklace well?  Or is it a bit much?...lol
I hope you enjoy seeing my interpetation of
 Jimmie's Cleo.
She was a pleasure to finally  put into my "COMPLETED' file.
Have a wonderful and productive weekend!
Sharon

p.s. Be sure to check out the latest stars that I have completed for the ladies cookie exchange.at church on Sunday.

Sharon, this is stunning, I don't know how you can part with it. I'd buy it, but I'm like you, I have no place to wear it...certainly not to the flea market! It's so beautiful!
