These were the beautiful beads I received frim Karin King of Maverick Beads. A link to her blog is here
The special magical hoarded beads were by Sarah Hornik and totally way out there in the universe of colours i am not used to.
I used one of these fabulous beads as inspiration for the silver focal piece I made from sterling to echo the lines in the bead. Peridot and amethyst from Rich Dover. Karin also sent me these fabulous lampwork hollows. Basically all of these beads are from her and set onto hand wrought sterling silver.
The beautiful beaded beads I used in this fabulous piece which I will struggle to release into the ether ever
The challenge of colour, bright bold and festivally has taken me down a new and exciting path and inspired my show this evening in LBA Designers Galleria Showcase link entitled Gypsy Caravan with PixieWillow.
Thank you Karin and thank you to Lori for this little adventure

Beautiful Joanne! I love both pieces but those beaded beads are stunners, they look like blackberries and the necklace is so pretty, do I see a butterfly wing among the beads!
