Meadow of Flowers Necklace (Reveal for SJ Honey Do List)
It was 27 degrees Fahrenheit here in South Alabama when I woke up on this first day of December. That's flippin' COLD here! But, it's already in the '40s, so that's a relief. Even with the dip in temperatures, it's a bright and sunny day much like the necklace that I'm about to reveal for the SJ November Honey Do List. I urge you to check out the inspiration photo of a field of bright red poppies. I think that I kind of captured it with my contribution.
The pendant was made by painting several colors of Vintaj Patinas onto a copper blank to create my field of bright flowers. I sealed it with a matte glaze to keep it from being too shiny.
To complete my necklace, I selected a mix of colorful glass beads. They're from the same set so all the beads are the same, they're just different colors. I did my best to make sure it wasn't too matchy-matchy.

I have been leaning towards multi colour these days. So I really dig your piece even if its doe not necessarily have poppies on it (It didnt even register until you pointed it out).
ReplyDeleteDivya, Thank you! Maybe I shouldn't have pointed it out. Ha! I was just so happy to already have this in my stash made and to have a way to finally use it! It worked out perfectly.
DeleteI love this happy poppy necklace! You did such a great job with the focal!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I'm so slow to comment... I just don't know where the time keeps going. I love this bright and cheerful design... it's so darn happy! Your painted pendant is adorable and the mix of beads you put with it is just perfect. Thanks for playing along with us and being patient when we are slow.
ReplyDeleteSarajo, No worries at all. I understand about the time slipping away. Thank YOU for continuing to offer up some inspiration in these dreary times. Having a little focus makes it easier to stay productive. I really appreciate it - more than you know!
