Contrast

I am a big fan of contrast and texture,

both of which are exhibited in these new crocheted necklaces.

I love the look of the black thread on the lighter/white stones and beach glass!

They just feel right.

I hope some make it in to the shop!

What sorts of things inspire you?

A glowing heart...

There are a few new crocheted necklaces in the shop,

Happy afternoon to all you beautiful butterflies!

glass, mineral, gather and stitch

I have been toiling away.

Gathering,

collecting,

planing,

stitching.

And then some.

I did a trade with a friend,

a whole lot of crystals for crocheting a bear claw she had into a necklace.

I think it looks splendid.

There are a few other things that I have been turning over in my mind,

things that I have been working on,

things that I have been planning on doing.

Things that I hope start manifesting in the very near future...

I have a small gaggle of crocheted crystal necklaces,

as well as crocheted beach glass ones.

I think I will be adding a few to the shop very soon!

new and different

Thought I would share a little of what I have been working on.

I have been collecting beach glass for a long time and over the years have done many different things with it.

But I have been wanting to crochet necklaces for a while now.

Remember the fish necklaces I traded for? I gave one to my Nana, and the other is one of my most prized handmade possessions!

So inspired by mothers day and the piece of purple beach glass that I found (I was so excited, not a normal color to find around here!!!), I thought I would give it a go and put my own spin on it. (Plus I am still trying to figure out on my own how to do a tail)

So here are a few of the necklaces I have made.

I have been wearing the brown one which sits just perfectly on the middle of my breast bone.

I am thinking of putting the white glass one in the shop, what do you think?

I have a few other really special necklaces that I have been working on, but am waiting to show you.

It will be a random surprise one day!

What have you been up to?
