BEAD PEEPS SWAP AND HOP 2017

WELCOME to the bead peeps swap and hop 2017. I hope you all had a great time swap and now hopping.

My partner in this hop is Kristina Peck from Michigan. She likes to work with glass and up-cycled materials. She hadn't used too many art beads so I sent her a few of my handmade polymer clay beads to have fun with. I also surprised her with a plethora of blue beads from vintage  to new, silver accents and a pair of my enameled butterfly charms that I made.  Hopefully she has fun with all my handmade components.   I plan to use some of my handmade components with the beads she sends me too.


Kristina's blog address is:  Kristina Peck http://tealeavesandtinyhats.blogspot.com/
Here is what i sent Kristina
And this is what she sent to me:
Of coarse i procrastinated until last week and made one item then.  Its been a long hard winter at my house with my being sick 5 of 8 weeks with sinus infection  norovirus then pneumonia to top it off and my son in a bad car accident with a broken back , but hopefully spring brings good things.
One wonderful thing this winter was the birth of my granddaughter Leah.



But on to bigger things like what I made from my goodies.  The pendant was by Muddy rivers by Barbara Rog. I added more czech beads to make this necklace.


next came earrings

I used my handmade etched copper components.

Love this one and will surely wear it around.  It contains the czech glass beads from Kristina paired  with patinad copper, copper spacers and a focal from a class at Pflora beads with a german glass doll in the middle. I am in love with this necklace.

next:

I paired the wonderful wood beads and czech beads, chain and clasp with one of my copper components for this fun necklace.

I hope you enjoyed seeing all my jewelry that I made.
have fun hopping .

  5. Such fun pieces. I hate that you've had so much distress this winter. Here's to a much better spring. As for your jewelry, I really love the caged doll one. So interesting and different! The dagger one is a lot of fun too. I bet it has a ton of texture when worn. Wonderful job getting so much done despite the setbacks!

  11. I love the rustic look of the copper necklaces. The bird focal is really cute but the copper spacer necklace is simply gorgeous. I hope that you are feeling better now after your pneumonia. I hope that your son is on the road to complete recovery too. My prayers for you both
