You know what I realized?  I make very, very few purple necklaces for sale; I'm not the only one in love with the colour, so I really ought to make purple necklaces for OTHER people.  That's what...set of loops.  I set it up in such a way that the amethyst chunks pull down the loops; the whole necklace kinda points down.  I love the set of dangles at the bottom - it makes NOISE.   

I think I like this necklace more than anyone else does. *laughs* It's a super gradated loop, that all together looks like flower petals or a beautiful tangle. It's heavy... man, this necklace is a statement necklace. The name is obvious, but I can't tell you what I wanted to create other than a garden idea. Flowers and green growing things, and butterflies.

It's a simple enough piece, coming out of a need to use that pendant. Ok, sure, it was probably meant to be an earring, but I wanted it to be a pendant. Neener. I tried to stick with colours that weren't brash or obnoxious... something that was in the darker set, something you could wear any day. The design is simple as well, echoing the smooth curves of the pendant.

Actually very cute.  I found this itty bitty purple glass pig at The Bead Shop, and it sat lonely in my bead boxes for some time.  It was so small that I had a difficult time figuring out what to...chubbies instead of little loops, aye?  This poor thing is also currently sitting in the re-photograph pile.  Lucky it, I should be able to do so some time today if the sun comes out.  

Gosh, I was so proud of this piece!  Everything just came together so well!  Those stones are from a reclaimed necklace that was actually rather dull.  Maybe they're adventurine?  Either way, I hadn't...older lady for her partner, who had come by earlier and kept saying how much she loved it.  I think it's sweet that this made a good present.  :D God D**n, but I did a good job.
