i started this bugger over the summer, and i've finally got it finished...
*warning, cross-posted to
beadwork*
i got this idea from a Bead & Button issue a while ago. took me freaking forever to finish it, as well as just finding the right color beads (and in some spots they still don't flow quite right)


(more pictures can be found here)
this is quite a hefty necklace... it's nearly 1/3 lb (80g) of beads! not something that i'm going to wear very often. but i did get some nice compliments when i wore it to school. along with some suprise that i actually made the thing
but, i did make some matching earrings, which are a bit more reasonable to wear

that's all from me for now. i've also started working on some of that super-nifty silk screening process. i've only got some test tries now, i need to get some white fabric paint to actually put it on the shirt...
