| LILY NECKLACE WITH MATCHING EARRINGS A simple bead stringing project. The focal bead here is a lampwork beauty I found at Sylcraft in Yakima, Washington. Sylvia has a small shop in a house converted for offices shared with her optometrist husband. She makes lovely beads. This one is two white lilies (one on either side) floating over a swirl of green, all encased in clear glass. The large beads are Czech pressed glass beads from the Salem, Oregon Craft Warehouse and the #11 Japanese seed beads were purchased specifically for this project at Root's Island Beads in Depot Bay on the Oregon Coast (my favorite bead store). The color in the second photo and earring photo is truer than the top one; the shade of green is a seafoam teal. |
