Necklace & Earrings: Designed May 20, 2012. Speckled foil beads, aqua crystal, red and gold glass beads, gold-filled toggle clasp. Matching earrings. Spring rebirth brings forth color - both subtle pastels and bold primary hues. Snapdragons in the garden inspire me to string red and gold beads ... then ocean-aqua crystals symbolic of the sea that I view from my beading place. Art and nature intertwine, relate, and play in inexplicable ways. As sun bathes flowers and sea, I make finishing necklace and earring crimps to my one-of-a-kind jewerly. It's a great day to create. It's a great day to be!
