Polymer Clay Bangle, somewhat different from my "common" color palette, I like it very much, the contrast between a very dark lilac and the orange - yellow hues is really eye catching

A Glorious Moonlit Night

~ Whitney Fong

It was upon a glorious moonlit night,

When my eyes first beheld your eyes.

Despite the latest hour of twilight,

Light from the heavens shown done to my surprise.

A fitting beam for such a divine angel,

With shining blond hair and handsome smile.

Could this prosper? Only time could tell.

You placed your hand in mine and we stayed a while.

Not a sound nor descent of sky,

Could distract me from your charming ways.

We strolled 'till the moon was no longer nigh,

If this is all but a reverie, don't wake me from this phase.

For to me love was once not conceived,

But upon this glorious moonlit night, I believe.

*********************************************************

I think that moonlit nights are so, so romantic and give us the the chance to express our desires, especially the ones which come from the bottom of our heart and soul..

So, another week theme challenge jewel - nocturnal. I wanted to create a very intricate bangle based on dark colours, apart from the central part, the moon.

I used meters of sterling silver wire in different gauges and many silver beads of different sizes.

In the middle I've put 2 white agate faceted teardrops - the moon - with a frame of silver squared beads and tiny labradorite rondelles. Immediately after the "moon" there are 2 wonderful faceted lapis lazuli round beads with a frame of tiny dark amethyst round beads.

At the end of the bangle I used two amazing peacock round button pearls.

This bangle is 7.87 inches long - clasp included - and it was made with lot, lot of love!
