Bead Soup Reveal

http://lorianderson-beadsoupblogparty.blogspot.co.uk
This is it the final reveal has arrived.
This is my first bead soup and it was such a valuable learning experience, i am so glad to have been able to join.
So my partner for the swap was Dee Elgie her blog is http://cherryobsidia.blogspot.co.uk
The first soup she sent of to me never arrived and i was so disappointed because it had lots of her own work in it.
But never the less Dee was great and sent me a replacement soup which included one of her gorgeous lamp work hearts.
I remade my first necklace several times but finally found a look i liked and would wear myself.

I used the heart focal, round rose quartz, rose quartz chunks and the diamonte clasp from my soup. Adding some crystals, rose quartz chips and white czech glass flowers as caps.



My second piece was a step outside my comfort area as i tried not to work completely symmetrically.
So using gunmetal chain i added a gorgeous focal bead from soup made by Pegasus added some dangles terminating with rose quartz,heart Swarovski bead and silvered crystal.
Along the chain i added a mix of rose quartz,pink cats eye, hematite from soup and little 6mm black bamboo beads.
The toggle is a standard one from my stash.

Lastly i really enjoyed using the tiny 6mm black bamboo beads and i had two more beautiful black lace  lentils from Dee which were made by Alchemy lamp work. I decided two combine them and made so cute little earrings.
I have loved the challenge of the soup and have been constantly amazed by the host Lori who started this fabulous blog hop a few years ago this is her soup blog.

  8. Three beautiful pieces of jewellery. My favourite is the 2nd necklace - it was a gorgeous focal and the rose quartz and the gunmetal chain were the right complements to that focal. Great work.

  10. Ohh, that must have been so hard to have the first soup lost in the mail. I'm glad you got a replacement in time and I got to see the lovely pieces you made. My favorite is the second necklace. The chain works really well with the focal piece.

  13. Well better late than never. I kind of burned out on bead soup blogs, even with the staggered reveal dates and the delays. But, I'm really glad I back-tracked on your blog and found yours. I was just looking at the blogger non-blogger photo reveal and then wanted to look at your prior posts and bingo I found your bead soup. It's great! Really gorgeous!!! Everything you made is fantastic but I especially like that second necklace. You might want to consider more non-symmetrical work in the future. I'm new to blogging as well. Hang in there. It can be very confusing but I have found the cyberspace bead community has provided me with tons of inspiration. I'm looking forward to coming back and seeing what else you have created! http://www.beadcontagion.blogspot.com/
