Necklace - Using one of the larger pieces I double sided bead stitched around securing the pendant before adding to smaller bead then did a stitch which required beading each bead on twice before hanging with the ribbon for an adjustable length. </div>

Bracelet is a chunky style bracelet using all of Caron's beads. </div>

I have enjoyed making these friendship rings so if you would like one, leave your name and email address below. The winner will get a gorgeous friendship ring made in the colours of their choice (using what I have in stock) The stones used will be crystals and matching czech glass with artistic wire. Made to your size as well.<br />
<br />
I will draw the winner via random.org on Thursday 9th August 2012 at 8.30pm.<br />
<br />
Thank you to everyone who has supported me and my designs. I truly do appreciate your support, feedback and encouragement.<br />

This is what I sent Tracy Stillman from Tracy Stillman Designs.<br />
She has been experimenting with seed beads so I thought a focal bead from Bobbie Pene at My Handmade added a nice 'kiwi' touch.<br />
<br />
Big reveal is August 25th. I can't wait to see what she has made.<br />

You never know what you get.<br />I always scan my partners designs looking at what their main medium, what they use and their favourite techniques. <br /><br />I thought I would send something made by me ....

I was feeling very nervous to start. There are so many talented ladies out there, how could I compare. But the satisfaction of sharing your experience, even if its little in comparison, and knowledge is matched with meeting new people from around the world. Listening to them, chatting with them and forming new friendships. <span style="font-weight:bold;">I had a ball.</span><br /><br />When I opened by packaged from Stefanie it was like Christmas had returned. She sent me 2 focal beads. A glass heart and a clay oval. Along with shells, pearls, ribbon and the most gorgeous paper beads. I have looked at paper beads before and though ... hmm must try that but never have. They are gorgeous and have now been moved up my Bucket list :) So here we go - <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">The beads</span> <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQeUWtoKpHQAolmOVqk7hzlg_0RwV59SPXh2w3Gkd155A3DtLEuIkeWRb4nqndE3rQgdGtKPr7euZ_5q4_X5Vm1D6bGiVUGm_RUtmLAWMMFgXBQf5pxQiaePPYCJtJIUJ_jfbCxl9PEQc/s1600/bead+soup.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQeUWtoKpHQAolmOVqk7hzlg_0RwV59SPXh2w3Gkd155A3DtLEuIkeWRb4nqndE3rQgdGtKPr7euZ_5q4_X5Vm1D6bGiVUGm_RUtmLAWMMFgXBQf5pxQiaePPYCJtJIUJ_jfbCxl9PEQc/s320/bead+soup.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5715465921120754498" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">The Bracelet </span><br />Using the gorgeous range of paper beads this chunky bracelet has organza ribbon threaded through the black chain.
