I made a simple, delicate necklace this time around. Romantic, but a little dark. Actually, as I was working out the design, I thought of that girl from the vampire movies! It does feel a little Twilight inspired, don't you think? I call it Lovers Locket. Three strands of red waxed linen cord braided together with faceted black onyx beads. Drops of pear-shaped faceted garnets and tiny hemite beads dangle from one side and with the heart pendant as well. Finished off with a Vintaj brass hook clasp and a gunmetal chain extender with a garnet drop.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the other design team members do with the beads this month! Here's the list:
Neat design, and yes, it does look Twilight inspired!
ReplyDeleteLove it! You are a such a master with the linen cord. Someday I will have to get some and play with it, but I fear that it will just end in a waxy tangle of knots! I ordered a few more pieces from Melanie to go with this months theme. Thanks for sharing your awesome talents with us Erin! Enjoy the day.

ReplyDeleteIt definitely looks like something from Twilight. It's very pretty, though. :)
