I couldn't decide which fringe I liked better on these earrings, so I posted it to Facebook. They couldn't decide either.
Based on a project I saw on Artbeads.com, this is for an upcoming birthday. The sparkly roundels (adjacent to the red crystals) are topaz.
Made from peach Swarovski pearls, red Swarovski crystals, and Topaz crystal rondelles.
Now that they've been given, I guess it's safe to say they were for @jessiechar, one of my (now ex-Delicious Monster employees) friends.
For this piece, I wanted to focus on the elements of composition. In the area of color, I chose to use vibrant hues and specifically not have them in the traditional order of a rainbow. I created bead wrapped balls and suspended them inside the woven chain for a contrast between hard and soft textures. The chain was created through double weave that was alternated between open and closed sides. The suspension of the balls inside the chain also cause an interest through the shadow created by light passing through the piece.
I love these rubberised beads. I arranged them with black wooden spacer beads and finished with a toggle clasp.

The font was discovered in use as a cattle trough in 1849, when it was given to the church. It now stands at the west end of the S aisle. The bowl is the only original part - it stands on 19thc. shafts. It was originally square, but the angles have been chamfered off, and each chamfer chamfered again towards the top of the bowl. The interior is approximately circular and unlined. Each face of the bowl is decorated with a sunken panel containing a figural scene in low relief, but the entire surface is so badly worn that only the forms of the figures are visible. The remains of a row of beading below the figural panel survives on the N and E faces, and some blue polychromy is visible on the E face.
The two rings on the left in the back are made with a combination of Delica & Miyuki beads, both size 11.
