She distributed a kit to 6 participants. I was not one of them because I signed up after a bunch of people, but my first chore was to put a similar kit together. So I used ceramic beads, fire polished beads, brass tone chain and wire and a metal focal with holes on each side.
I liked the way she used her ceramic beads right into her focal, this I copied. I also liked the multiple strands of chain and used them on one side of the necklace.
I saw red or brown glass beads attached to the chain in her original design, so I use fire polished glass and added blue because I just felt like it. I also attached my clasp to the back, yet kept the asymmetrical design in my creation as well.
You can see that is a different creation from Gaea's, yet the inspiration and similarities are there. I hope you like it.

Fantastic! I love your use of color and that winged heart rocks!
ReplyDeleteThat heart is pretty darned cool. I think that this is totally you. I know that you used some elements, but really, you put your own spin on the materials and the patterns and I would not say at all that you 'copied' anything. Great inspiration. Thank you for sharing.
