Breaking the silence

Sounds rather ominous, but it's really not. It's just that it's been such a long time since I've posted to this poor neglected blog. It's certainly not due to a lack of things to say!! That's never been a problem for me!

Before I talk about my jewelry I'll talk about my most exciting news, I have a new Husband. My boyfriend of nearly 3 years and I hopped off to Vegas and got hitched a few weeks ago. Sorry no Elvis!! (we thought about it!) We had a great time and life is good!! Now that all the madness is done I can get back to my most favorite past time, making jewelry!

What do I talk about first, the stunning little glass beads made to order for me by Kelley's Beads or the soft and beautiful Lotus Seed Prayer Beads from Happy Mango...they are both wonderful and compliment my Serengeti Giraffe texture focal made out of Precious Metal Clay resulting in a Pure Silver pendant.

The texture on the Silver is a lovely subtle what I consider to be a Giraffe texture, even the smoothest parts have some interesting texture. A beautiful subtle Animal print that's not in your face.

Kelley's beads have beautiful olive green and metalic swirled around them on a base of Ivory, a perfect match to the soft and beautiful speckled Lotus Seed beads.
