and 210  bead-lovers  (addicts:-)  all over the world   YAAAYYYYYY  (se map at the bottom of this post)

You can see all the beads I got from my partner Barbara ( who is very ill with high fever at the moment :( !  her post will be delayed -!in an earlier post  (Thank You Barbara!)

I had a lots of pretty beads to work with and the amazing flowers made by Barbara

So ofcourse i wanted to use this gorgeous flower ....was more of a challenge than I thought :)

but it turned out a statement necklace for party dressing

I used lots of freshwater pearls and Czech glass here and my hand-antiqued brass chain

at the neck part the gorgeous hand dyed silk grunge ribbon i stocked up from Mary not Martha on Etsy

a bunch of flowers and crystal at the side here and a wonderful big wood bead from Barbara

Necklace is sold :)

next is a pair of brass party earrings  with turquoise beads and crystals  (I WILL MAKE BRACELETS ALSO BUT THEY ARE STILL IN MY HEAD ONLY)

hard to get good photos as it is dark outside this day...

I want to THANK YOU again  Lori for all Your work during  looong nights with this party !!
