Sharyl from Sharyl's Jewelry and Reflections recently purchased some of my destash beads from my etsy shop, Kit and Caboodle. She was kind enough to show me what she created with the beads she purchased. I have to say how much this thrilled me. I'm actually very excited to see these beads used to make such a beautiful jewelry piece, and in a way that I would not have thought of. It just reminded me that our creativeness is unique to each of us as artists. Our creative thought processes are different and that is the beauty of handmade work, the uniqueness. So here are the beads she purchased:
And here is her beautiful necklace creation using two varieties of the beads she purchased in one design. I love how the copper metal links the beads together and gives the overall design a nice warmth. I also love the color combination she put together with the reds and blues of various shades as well as the asymmetrical color placement.
Thanks so much for sharing these photos of your creation, Sharyl! See more of her designs on her website, Sharyl's Jewelry.
Anyone else care to share what they've made from my destash beads? I'd be thrilled to see and share what you've created!
Thank you, Gayle! I truly appreciate you showing my jewelry and your kind comments! I had some lovely beads to work with and I'm anxious to use the others too! I'll be keeping an eye on your Destash collection from now on!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post as I'm sure those in the 'know' realize that beads are probably one of the most 'green' supplies as they can be repurposed and recycles so beautifully ... the necklace is lovely and thanks so much for sharing...!
ReplyDeleteWhat a colorful and fun piece Sharyl created! And so cool that you highlighted her here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing such an enjoyable post.
Thank you for both for the kind words! There is a new piece up today--earrings this time. I'm really enjoying Gayle's beads. Of course one look at her jewelry and we know she has great taste!
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies for all your comments. I'm truly thankful for the online community of artists that I have found online. You are the best! Gotta go take a look at Sharyls new posting!
