A Challenge

I’ve just entered a challenge over on  Love My Art Jewellery. It’s a particular colour combination of lovely autumn tones.

I’d love some autumn weather right now. It reached about 37c today and tomorrow is going reach a sizzling 39c. Oh joy! It’s our first burst of hot weather for the year and I’m already over it.

The aircon in the bedroom will be switched on tonight…..

…and more than likely tomorrow too.
Head on over to Love My Art Jewellery and check out the colours for the challenge and then head over to the flickr group and see some of the other beautiful entries.

Introducing Eleanor

My photos aren't terribly great I know and they certainly haven't done justice to Heather's beautiful ceramic pendant. It's hard to describe the colours in it, a very pale sage green with white and dark brown markings on it.

I've used blue jade faceted rondelles, olive green I don't know what....I'm terrible I buy beads and forget what they are, and mother of pearl beads all joined together with brass wire. Two brass filigree flower connectors and a little brass bird charm.

I didn't have any brass toggle and clasps so I made a beaded clasp and added a vintage button for the toggle. Wasn't too sure about the colour scheme but the more I look at it the more I love it.

Eleanor Rigby

I guess I'd better think of a name or Carmen will be on my case again about naming my pieces so being an old hippy chic Beatles fan, I'm calling it Elanor Rigby
