I just finished my pieces for the August Challenge from Operation Tackle that Stash. I haven't often worked in copper but found that when paired with royal blue, it is quite striking. I had purchased the focal sometime ago and knew that someday it would take center stage. This was the perfect challenge for this piece. The necklace was made using dyed fresh water pearls, brilliant blue swarovski crystals, copper spacers and clasp and copper seed beads.

The earrings are made with some beautiful copper leaves, copper findings and dyed fresh water pearls. The colors are so striking they are hard to miss. Hope you enjoy!

Wow, I don't know how you do. Each time I'm more amazed. This time in my all time favorite color, blue, too. It's beautiful seems you saved that stone of the perfect piece.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful focal stone! And I love this color combination - perfect to transition from summer to fall. I would wear those earrings every day!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pieces! I love the way you framed the stone -- your design added to the drama and beauty of the focal without overwhelming it. :)
