The really funny thing is - I have had this done for ages because I am such a procrastinator. But then I forgot totally that today is the day to show everyone what we have done. Please forgive me this is my first ever challenge like this! So below are the pics of what Jeannie sent me. At first glance it might seem that is would be easy being all plain beads. However, I was unsure of how much was me and how much was the beads I got from Jeannie. So it turned out to be a brain-freeze. I will mostly just look at everyone elses gorgeous things and plan on next year.
And here is what I made; out of one necklace and one pair of earrings I managed to get two necklaces and two pair of earrings. I wanted to use as much as I could and I ended up using 100%. Now, I do have to say that the crystal globe earrings are really heavy and only if you want to stretch out your ears for gauges would you wear these. With the necklaces I just added a couple polymer pendants that I made ages ago that were lurking in a drawer. I really had no "process" or plan; this being my first time figured I would just go with the flow and see what happened. My only criteria was using up everything. You will see in the pic of my copper clasp a little dangle...those were the beads that I had left but was determined to use!
So now hop (it is a blog hop after all) on over to these other great sites and see what they have done!
