Fun Fabric Necklace and Giveaway


Last week I told you about the peace sign pendants I received from WholePort.com. I also got these fun fabric and cotton cord covered beads! I used a big eye needle to string the beads onto some pretty pink silk ribbon from Marsha Neal Studio. I also tied on a crimson glass link from Cindy Gimbrone and a bit of ivory dupioni silk from Ornamentea for more texture. What a fun piece to make...and wear!

    
And now for the giveaway...
I'm giving away these 8 beads as shown above courtesy of WholePort.com.  4 fabric covered beads in a colorful plaid fabric and 4 cotton cord covered beads in pink and white. These beads are light weight and fun to work with. You will love them.

To enter the giveaway, just leave a comment on this post by Thursday, July 21st.
Tell me what you would make with these beads if you won them. I will randomly draw one lucky winner on Friday, July 22nd.

Thank you for stopping by and GOOD LUCK!

  9. I think they would make cool zipper pulls or handbag charms. I also think they would be really cute with ribbon and a big bow as a statement necklace or bracelet. swopemelmel@aol.com
