Yesterday, I made some spacer beads out of a pastry box and painted them with nail polish in irridescent gold color. I also made some in red and green since it is the season for these festive colors, and they turn out really nice. I wanted to use them in a necklace preferably a gentleman’s necklace, I am having difficulty making a man’s necklace, for me it’s just the hardest thing to do. So, I incorporated the paper bead spacers with matted onyx tube beads, seed beads and gemstone chips. What do you think?
I think the cross pendant from c-koop, looks nice with it.
My inspiration, is a glass catch-all from Spain, a present from a friend. I love the colors of the glass.
I love it. So pretty! What a wonderful idea.
Happy Saturday SITS Sharefest! Great site…I’ll be sure to come back soon and see some more!
