Hello everyone!
I have another finished project to share... woohoo! I'm on a roll, getting things done and cleared off my beading table. It definitely feels good.
So, what am I showing today?
Well, frequent visitors to my blog might recognize this little mix:
That's right... It's what I shared for my Wednesday Worktable on May 7th.
In case you missed that entry, I essentially gave myself a little mini-challenge to create a necklace using only beads from last month's Jesse James Mystery Bead Box. That includes both the beads seen above, and the beads seen below:
I am happy to report: I did it!
And without further ado... here it is! The piece that I'm calling my Rainy Day in May necklace!
Some features of this necklace:
- The tassel design is actually asymmetrical... most of the tassel strands are different, with very few repeats.
- The necklace chain is also asymmetrical... the length of chain is different between each beaded section.
- Everything is from the Mystery Bead Box except for the chain, the seed beads (which were still from Jesse James Beads), and the tassel's bead cap.
I am really happy with how this design turned out. It's been awhile since I've made a strung tassel like this one, and it was fun revisiting this style. I also liked how everything looks like it's flowing... the asymmetrical design really adds to the organic, falling-rain feeling.
So, there you go. Thanks for stopping by today. See you on Wednesday!
Until then, have a wonderful day, everyone!
Whoo! A fantastic tassel necklace. As its raining at my place, the intense heat has cooled down. I feel like wearing your piece over a breezy tunic and dancing on the rooftop.
