This is a blog hop so do not forget to look at the other designs for this month!
A few weeks ago I signed up to be part of the Echo Creative Club hosted by Jeannie Dukic I choose some of her lovely polymer clay beads and received one of these lovely Gin Blossoms pendants a very special one with many holes as I felt it had to be made into something tribal

here is a picture also from the beautiful packing it arrived in
was not as easy as I thought to add some dangles on this beauty
but I acted like most times at my bead table
not very much thinking....... let inspiration flow
just manifesting what was waiting to be done

so instead of the more classic ethnic long necklace I saw in my mind when I first got my eyes on this beautiful pendant it is a shorter tribal one and very much a show stopper
some Turquoise beads
a crystal pointer
recycled glass
ancient glass and lampwork beads
my handmade ceramic beads (one with a tribal face) and button
wood
bone
rhinestone rondelle
and of course some silk

SvaraRaderaBirgitta, the mix of beads are very interesting and you put them together beautifully. A necklace like this is not so easy to do, but you did with such harmony. Thank you for creating such beauty.

SvaraRaderaOh those colors! I love the earthy feel of this piece.
SvaraRaderaOoh! I love the tribal vibe you went with Birgitta. Seeing it on you is perfect. You are a beautiful model! I love the fact that your pretty face bead showed up in there. So many interesting details to return to again and again. Enjoy the day!
