Lorelei's Fusion Beads Challenge

 Today is the reveal day for Lorelei's Fusion Beads Challenge! Here's my necklace I call Feather Fall. A decidedly Fall-inspired design! The colors and beads that Lorelei chose reminded me of an Autumn palette, so I decided to just go with my first instinct! Fusion Beads was out of the green lucite leaves that Lorelei had picked out, so I went with these Sienna feather leaves instead since I wanted a Fall feel and the idea of the feathers went along with the Green Girl Studios Owl Toggle.

I started with the leather strand, taking full advantage of those fire-polished beads fitting perfectly on it! I knotted the beads an inch apart for a lighter feel. I simply strung the wood beads and Japanese seed beads and added the copper chain with the feather leaves dangling or "falling" down for the focal of the necklace.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed my creation. Now, off to more blogs to see what the other participants did! :)

Waxed Linen Jewelry

Well, I know it's been a little quiet around here, especially on the jewelry front! I did manage to make a few new pieces recently. Of course, they are created with my favorite material, waxed linen cord!

 Linen Blossom

This first necklace is a delicate piece with green agate rounds and new jade wire-wrapped dangles braided into the waxed line cord for the necklace. The pendant is an Earthenwood Studio flower bead with wrapped dangles of green agate, new jade and carnelian. The closure is also an Earthenwood bead.

 Night Magic

This next piece is a fun multi-strand bracelet! Eight strands of blue waxed linen cord beaded with hues of blue seed beads. The cool button closure is from Green Girl Studios. I used an easy technique to create the button loop that I will be sharing in the upcoming book! I hope you will be looking forward to it!
