one thing i've never mentioned are jeannie's fabulous bead packets. she does these amazing paper confections on her bags that i've so enjoyed collecting. the october packet led me to me theme this month, which is halloween!
the peeled paint art beads are red and gold, perfect for halloween! so i pulled out one of my halloween theme polymer focals that i made.
i bought a strand of red rolled silk cord and thought it matched jeannie's beads perfectly. i used black waxed cotton cord, wrapped the silk with it, then strung jeannie's art beads randomly with knots. i left them loose on the cord for some movement.
on the other side i used a fallen angel brass hook and eye for the closure and a short strand of thin leather cord and another peeled paint art bead.
i'm not sure i'm entirely satisfied with the red silk dangle. what do you think?
thanks, jeannie, for letting me be a part of your team!!!
