wedding composition

spiral necklace made of white fresh water pearls and faceted purple glass beads,
made out of fire line with a #12 needle, closed with a barrel clasp
45 cm/17,5" long incl. clasp

The story:
It all began with a lavender cocktail dress that I found for the weeding we are going to attend to this summer. Finding matching shoes, purse, ... was hard enough so I had the brilliant idea to make the jewelery myself;-).
I decided on a classic necklace but finding the right design and stones to match was a bit of a journey.
The creation it self was pretty straight forward and relativly fast (as fast as a spiral necklace can be I guess, there is just a lot of ground to cover;-). At least the pattern is really easy, not a lot that can go wrong there:-).

ring made with magic stretch thread,
triangle 3,5 x 3,5cm/1,5x1,5" long

The story:
After the necklace was finished I found shoes that are a little bit more modern as supposed to be overly classic. The goal now was to create a transition from the classic necklace to the more modern shoes. I thought about something more graphic, a triangle ring.
Finding the right pattern in the right size was a looooong process. It took 3 different patterns and at least 7 tries before I found the right one. And even than I had to undo it and start over again because it became way too big.
In the end I had exactly what I had imagined and only needed to form and attach an elastic ring to it :-)
