I apologize in advance for these less than stellar photos, but I wanted to show you what I accomplished during my time staffing the VAAM Gallery on Saturday. I don't know what made me think a red background was a good idea.

This is glass pearls, orange aventurine chips, crab fire agate, and tiny freshwater pearls. I didn't have a good clasp for this piece yet, so it's without.

This one is burgundy freshwater pearls, a few peacock pearls, dark red Swarovski crystals, silver stardust spacers, and a large Thai silver focal bead, plus fancy end cones and a filigree clasp.

Very hard to see the gorgeous burgundy pearl shade with the red background, but it is really nice.

This piece is silvery gray/green pearls accented with mother-of-pearl disks dyed the same color, plus sterling beads and clasp.

And a closeup. I like this design and may make others in different colors.

After going through my existing jewelry I've decided I really don't need to make a lot more for Art in the Garden so the next couple of weeks may not be as hectic as I originally thought. I do have one or two necklace designs swirling around in my head that I will try to make, plus I'd like to get some more precious metals clay pieces done. I'll keep you posted.
