Part 1 of 2
I love the color red - mainly because it suits me! However, red is not that popular as a jewelry color. So it gave me great pleasure to see these two workshop pieces.
The first one is by Sharon who chose a large faceted glass bead as her focal. Most people would have put just one metal bead between the glass ones. However, notice she not only placed 2 metal beads as spacers but she alternated different shapes, too. By doing so, her design became just that bit more distinctive.

Nice, but I have to disagree on red not being popular as a jewelry color. Red coral is probably one of the most popular ”gemstones“ in the world!
ReplyDeleteBoth are very pretty!
ReplyDeleteVery nice pieces. I like red as well, but have to admit that I make very little red jewelry. I think I saw a tutorial (on one of the beading magazine sites) on using a netting technique to encase a cabochon.
