Focus on Life: Create Art!


Our prompt for this week was 'Create Art'. How very appropriate! I had originally wanted to create something other than jewelry. It's not often that I get the time to experiment with other art types, and this week was not that time.
At the least, I pushed myself to use a different technique and materials for this necklace... A button and loop made out of seed beads for the clasp, as well as some black cotton ribbon. The photo I took shows a sketch of the design and a mostly completed necklace, I just need to find my sewing kit to attach the button to the ribbon :)

  2. I like this!! I have often thought of using ribbon instead of chain as you have here; connecting it to a semi-finished piece.

  5. Pretty! I love a nice button closure. I also find it so nice to wear a nice piece of silk against the skin.
