Necklaces

[ailbhe]

I received a delivery from PJ minerals Ltd and proceeded to make four necklaces. Eventually there may be photos. The first one was 14 inches long, mostly blue. The next one was 17 inches long, mostly green (including some great beads that look black until the light shines on them). Then I went for broke, decided tostop being so stingy with my beads, and made one 24 inches long in shades of brown and amber. And then I realised that I had some interesting read beads I'd hardly used yet and made a red one 16.5 inches long.

I feel very satisfied, and want to order more beads and make more things. Perhaps I should order some elastic and make some bracelets to match.

The only snag is that I don't actually wear jewellery very much. Ho hum. Perhaps I'll start.

yay, craftiness! yes, pictures! :) i found that it's very satisfying myself, but i have the same conundrum as you -- i just don't wear the things (it actively bothers me to have things dangling from my neck/wrists, and no way am i making additional holes in my body). i've been thinking of ebaying the things i make so that i can make more without just sinking money into it.
