I started with this necklace.
Using two different shades of the lilac and faceted crystals from the kit I added some silver hearts. The closure is a magnetic heart with crystal embellishment. This piece can be worn with the closure at the front or back.
Next I played with doing some sort of a netted design with the grey rice pearls but was not happy with any of the ideas. So I decided to do a simple ladder stitch bracelet using purple velvet Swarovski crystals on the edges. This is long enough to be worn as a double wrap bracelet or a choker.

Nice...love the necklace with the hearts. Of course anything purple is for me. Great job!
ReplyDeleteOh I love those hearts and that clasp - the necklace is so pretty. I also really like the way you used the rice pears - that is a great idea, I always have a hard time figuring out what to do with them, but they are so elegant.
ReplyDeletePretty pieces! Love the little hearts and pearls together!
ReplyDeleteJo-Ann - you created such pretty pieces. They have a romantic feel to them. I would wear both with pride. I especially like the hearts. Thanks for being in the hop!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty pieces. Great clasp on the heart necklace! I love how you used the rice pearls in the bracelet.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful designs Jo Ann.
