This is the third and final reveal of the 6th BSBP. I was in reveal # 2 and I am in this one too! I just love getting and giving beads. For this reveal date my partner is Michelle Escano-Cabellero of http://cabbycraft.blogspot.com/
Michelle is a mixed media and polymer clay artist. She also makes amazing cards.
Let me show you the really cool soup mix I received from Michelle. She made the polymer clay focal.
Picture borrowed from Michelle's blog. |
This is what I designed with the beads she sent. I did a cubic right angle weave. This was my first time doing this bead stitch, I seem to be doing that a lot lately. J I did the bead weaving for the front of the necklace and attached the focal using a peyote bail. I then made beaded links using the beautiful crystal beads Michelle sent me, I added some onyx and tigers eye. One of the things I really enjoy about these challenges is the challenge and the opportunity to push myself. I was able to use the clasp and the focal in one piece and really love the end result. This necklace is going to be a gift to my Mother, I know she will really love it.
Thanks Michelle, it was great being your partner. Please visit her blog and see what she made with the bead soup I sent her, I am sure it is amazing!
