Linda that is a sweet pretty necklace, love the sparkle.
Cazza wow love your necklace. How does it feel to wear? Did you use mica powders like Pearl Ex or just using clay? It is the sort of necklace you want to see in person.

Hi MsChar
I used a combination of plain and pearl clay blue for the base, then imprinted with a texture sheet. Cut the shapes then dabbed with different colours of Mica, cooked, then a layer of glaze to set it all in place. It's light to wear and has a slight jingle when I move with the added metallic objects. Next step is to try it in different colours. _________________ Oztion http://www.oztion.com.au/shop/cazbaar.aspx Photobucket http://s289.photobucket.com/albums/ll221/carold_album/ |

Hi-I made this a while back, but given how things are going, I may not get a chance to make anything new, even WITH the extension!
The beads on this necklace were made from imprints of nasturtium leaves (if I remember rightly) , then coated with Perfect pearls and embedded with swaros.

Beautiful, Zarina, that would look stunning on a plain black silk top. On a much less classy note, the cord you used is giving me ideas of what to do with all the Scoubidous that are lying around our place NOT getting made into keyring dangles and zipper pulls.

Zarina love the textured leaf design, very elegant.
Linda I have used Scoubidos on several of my items already, you can see them in my Etsy shop, they work real well. I bought all the different colors I could find, so I have a draw full. _________________ Charlotte ^^^^^^^^^^^ http://DreamLeaping.etsy.com http://www.flickr.com/photos/dreamleaping/ http://s26.photobucket.com/albums/c108/MsChar99/ |
