I had a lot of ideas, but none of them seemed right. I wanted to do something spontaneous and unique... Something photogenic and a little silly, and hopefully didn't involve wire-wrapped links.
At a loss, I asked one of my friends for help. Her response? While we were visiting a craft store this past Monday, she went into the bead section, picked out a pendant, and told me to make something with it.
...That's exactly what I'm going to do.
And so, my challenge for June is to make something with this:
Yep.
It's a bling crab.
...Not something I would usually pick out, I admit. Sure, I like Swarovski crystals and all sorts of faceted glass, and have been known to go through extra-sparkly-shiny phases. But I don't usually go for bling crabs.
Although, I have to admit that the more I look at it, the more it makes me smile. It's kinda cute, in an aqua-and-rhinestone-beachwear sort of way.
This should be fun.
So, come by on the last Friday of June--the 26th--to see what I create with this whimsical pendant!
I like the colors. And he is kind of boinky ...:)
ReplyDeleteThis pendant has really grown on me. As you say--he's boinky! :)
