Owl Necklace


I finally have a few photos of my newest project which includes some "upcycled" beads. In my last post I talked about this necklace and how I had taken beads from two different stretch bracelets and added them to this piece. I was pleased with the outcome. :)

The necklace is composed of mainly new pieces, except for the large beads. Those beads have a nice smooth satin finish and a randomly marbled color. The owl pendant was the inspiration for the design. I've seen so many owl items lately. I just had to make one. :)

Sorry I didn't get a good full length picture of the necklace. I really need a display for necklaces. I have looked, but I never bought one. :( That needs to go on the top of my to do list.

I would love to know what you think. Feel free to leave me a comment! :)

We'll be doing a Gift Guide :D

The SEUS Street Team has decided to organize a little gift guide project to post on our team shops blog. This should be lots of fun. I love window shopping! Who doesn't? Well, I guess that would have to be my husband, for one. ;)

I'll keep you all updated on our progress with getting this set up. It will be great to see the collections of Southeastern Etsy talent that our members dig up! So Stay Tuned!
