Spring and Summer Have Arrived

I have been working very hard on my recent projects that I thought I would share with you!  The Flowers seem to be a "theme" this year.  I haven't even gotten a name for them yet.   The back side has a hidden bale for a simple chain or even a rope that I have in the back of my mind to make that is interchangeable with other pieces.  I think it will be in shades of greens.  The yellow daisy is one that I made last year and when I found this lovely pink bead it just demanded that I create one in pinks.   

Another flower!

I simply love this bead!  I have heard it called a "platter bill" my hubby thinks they look like teeth.  Whatever their name and origin I love the shape and this rosy color.  Don't you?  I had a bright rosy colored 18mm Rivoli and the crystals so when I found the beads in a shop in Iowa I grabbed all they had! 

 I just finished a bracelet too...ALOT of bling on this square Swarvoski Crystal.

Happy EASTER!  Blessings to all of you,  Sharon

Sun anyone?

In the fall I think of

Sunflowers!

I made this one and wore it last week.

What do you think?

It was a "made from scratch" idea that I just built

upon until I was satisfied....

But today I saw one that was even prettier.

Gretchen of  http://libeado.blogspot.com/ 

created this beautiful piece.

Now this is a sunflower of all sunflowers. 

Plus she already sold it! 

Look at all that work! 

Go over to her site and see the other beautiful pieces she creates....it will be worth your time!

Blessings to all,

Sharon
