Bead Hoarders Blog Hop

The day has arrived, so we wouldn't all suffer too much from hop withdrawal the wonderful Lori Anderson gave us the Bead Hoarders Blog Hop. What a great idea because as much as some of us (me) try to deny it we are all hoarders. I could have created so many pieces  but didn't organize myself well enough (some other pieces have been started, but not yet ready). Remember this.....

Well it with a few additions from the hoard it became this....
Nephri
I wasn't crazy about the dirty silver scarab so with a little ingenuity he became blue. The long bugle beads had been in my stash for some time but I couldn't figure out what to do with them, they were the perfect final
addition.

I hope you all enjoy!

    Your necklace is wonderful. You captured the Egyptian feel really well. I agree that the scarab looks better blue and I like the long bugle fringe.

    Holy smokes! That's an amazing piece of art. You should consider entering it into the annual Bead and Button Show contest for seed beading. Really. And I like how you thought outside of the box and turned the silver blue. Spot on.

    Thanks so much for being patient with my tardiness, and THANK YOU for participating!
