Free-form Peyote
Hand-created polymer clay focal and accent beads by Karen Lewis... free-form peyote, faceted blue topaz, faceted black onyx... Karen's beads are created with colored polymer clay - not a drop of paint... this piece has a gorgeous focal bead of mauve/blue/gray, with layered (3D) leaves. A smaller accent bead is featured on one side, and multiple leaves (also Karen-crafted) dangle from delica "vines". Faceted black onyx and blue topaz drops add a hint of sparkle. One side of the necklace includes a flat, wide delica band (always aiming for that asymmetrical look)! A beaded loop and toggle were created for closure.

TOURMALINE TREASURES

"Windswept"
Hand-created lampworked glass bead ("Windswept") by Carol Fonda and Monty Clark... when I saw this bead, it just SCREAMED for multi-colored tourmaline - the colors coordinate beautifully. Multiple strands of tourmaline, with Swarovski crystals and leaves mixed here and there, are strung asymmetrically through the large bead. The bead reminded me of a shell, so I added "treasures" falling out of it... crystals, tourmaline drops, and a single pearl (my one compromise to Mic at Nomadic Notions... who feels that I need to mix textures and opaque/transparents more)! Strands can be twisted or not... depending on how "messy" a look you want!
