~shadow box challenges

ah, the third shadow box arrived brimming with luscious goodies and the contents continue to challenge and delight. here, a knotted choker of color, color color from ~shipwreckdandy~ a serious departure from my norm i feel this piece is.

then some earrings made with criffles ~numinosity beads~ sporting polymer clay beads from the box.

more box beads. the red ones came along with the wire touch already added. so i paired them with yummy pink glass. it's nice that many of the gals who added to the box added in twos.

and finally a large turquoise bead from box number one found a home at the bottom of this necklace. eeee, this took me some time as i chain connected vintage glass beads. unusual mixture of texture. cool to the touch.

~welcome new work of 2012~

i spent new years alone. all the family was away. i celebrated with chocolate cake and coffee. weee, i was up till 1 as a result and up again at 4. no more coffee at night for me! made me watch terrible tv as a result. so, there's a new years resolution i didn't know i had in me. lol. well, i've been mending things these days so i decided that today was a fabric day. i had some found and grab baggy items on my bench which ended up lending themselves well to these chokers. fun~
