This post is right smack in the middle of the busiest 2 weeks of our Spring so I am keeping it relatively short and simple. And I also want to let you know that I will get back to you on all the comments you have left over the past few posts. It may take me a week or so to get a response out, but I will, I promise. The e-mailing is my favorite part of blogging!
Here is this week's Reclaimed Sari Ribbon necklace:
The Lampwork Bead comes from the hands of 2 Bead Sisters. I don't use lampwork beads too often and never really know what to do with them. Yet every time I see these ladies at a show, I spend half my budget at their table. I cannot resist them!
Nicole from Darn Good Yarn sent me the ribbon to work with and see what I could come up with. This week, I did some tearing. It tears easily when I want it to. It doesn't seem to want to tear on its own at all, but to get the tears where I wanted them to be and how I wanted them to look, it was very compliant. Good Ribbon. I wish all things in my life listened to me like you did ;-)
If you missed what I made Week One or Week Two, go take a look.
Thanks for stopping by and thank you Nicole!

Love that bright orange color ;)
Beautiful lampwork beads...
Have a fun and busy week!
ha! ain't that the truth! if only all things (children) did as I asked! That is such a fun one Christine! I like how you've rolled it on it's side, and those colors are so bright and happy!
More hippie chic! This one is very laid back and beachy :)
~ very cool ~
I'm keeping it short & simple, too!
The orange color is luscious -- which is something I would never have said a few years ago, because orange was one of those *scary* colors for me to work with. Love how you let it play the major role, with just the pops of lampwork to chill it out a little bit!
Lovely Christine as always. I have a bowl of lampwork beads and just adore the colors. They really make me happy! Have fun this week. Oh yes, the sari is a wonderful color addition. Glad you are finding some good use for it.
It looks like you know what to do with lampwork beads now Christine! This is such a simple, pretty design that really shows of the bead.
