Bead Soup Blog Party Reveal Day!

BSBP reveal day has finally arrived!  Spring has sprung on my blog!  I am so excitied to show you my creations but before I do here is a picture of the fabulous beads that Nancy Boylan sent me.


From this pile of beads…I made these 2 FUN necklaces…

“Spring on Me” Necklace



I used Nancy’s lampwork glass beads, enameled metal round beads and some of the Czech glass beads that she sent to design this necklace.  I also added Nan Emmett’s “Bird on a Nest” rustic ceramic pendant and 2 of Karen Trotten’s Blue Grotto Star links and attached it all to Vintaj Brass jump rings and clasp.

“Daisy on You” Necklace



I had three of Nancy’s lampwork glass beads left over from the 1st necklace so I added them to this FUN spring design.  I also added a combination of Czech glass beads, 1 enameled round bead and 3 of the etched metal squares/rectangle and attached everything to Vintaj Brass jump rings with a Sterling Silver clasp.

That’s it for me!  And, a big Thank you goes out to Lori Anderson for hosting this fun blog hop!
