new necklace...
I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am this necklace is finally finished.
I made the owl focal back in November or December of last year. For weeks it sat and sat and sat some more on my workbench just waiting to be turned into something beautiful. Everytime I started to string the necklace it wasn't right. Back on my bench it went. One evening I was lamenting this pathetic turn of events to my mother. Her advice to me was to put it away, out of sight for awhile. Come back to it in a couple weeks with fresh eyes. I should have remembered this from all my art classes in college, but I didn't, not until my brilliant mother reminded me. Anyway, I'm glad I listened to my mom, because fresh eyes is exactly what it needed.
Sorry for the poor picture quality. It is overcast and blah here today. Click on the image for more pictures.
