I spent the weekend up in Philly at WireFest a few days back and in addition to learning some wonderful wire ring basics from Michael David Sturlin (which I'll post more about later), I got in some good shopping at the bead market. I kept myself relatively controlled this time and only came home with about a TON of quartz! haaaaaaaaaa I picked up these mosaic-looking round beads that feature reconstituted turquoise. I just love them! Plus, these "petals" of lemony-limey quartz are just wonderfully smooth and just cried out for me to touch and use them.
I love you set with the turquoise and quartz. I also just finished a set with the mosaic turquoise (not a stylish as yours). The 1st time I found some of the mosaic turquoise they were calling it turtle turquoise and I thought that was a cool name for it. Debbie
ReplyDeleteWow-love that mosaic turquoise! It realy pops with the yellow quartz. Wonder if I could make some poly clay beads that look that good! Beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteThanks, ladies! I think some poly clay beads with those colors would be fabulous! I'm not a clay genius, but when it comes to mixing up cool colors, I'm a huge fan!! Maybe we should challenge ourselves?? haaaaa
