I think it's done! |
 |
What do you think? I think it'd better be done 'cause I had enough of working on this thing! ;-)
I want to say a big *Thank You* to Barbara Grainger for writing one of my favorite beading books: 'Dimensional Flowers, Leaves & Vines'.
It's always the first book I'm referring to every time I'm playing around with leaves and flowers and it's from this book that I learnt the technique for the leaves and petals I used in this necklace.
I also want to say *Merci Beaucoup*to Frany for asking me to make a flowers swap with her.
It's because of this swap that I pushed myself to figure out how to make these flowers (I made an orange/yellow set for her) and a way to mount them on a necklace that 'd be different from hers in style.
Frany uses a wire inside of her ropes and attaches the flowers at the end of the ropes. I wanted my flowers to stay up, but without using any wire.
Now that this one is done, I can play with the beautiful flowers that she made for me and see what I can do with them.
Oh yes, I also need to finish the 'Lentils & Donuts' necklace, so I guess I'm going to be busy beading for a while. ;-)
