Several weeks ago, the talented artist and jewelry designer Birgitta Lejonklou and I made contact via one of the flickr groups we both belong to. She admired a necklace I had made a while back and I admired her lovely clay pendants and links. We decided to make a trade and I received this in the mail yesterday.

Here’s what’s on my work bench this Bead Table Wednesday, a fresh serving of pendants courtesy of Lejonklou Design:

Needless to say I am smitten with these:

Naturally the Buddha heads are favorites, as is this piece:

      You’re welcome. I’m glad you are enjoying the necklace. I’ve been organizing my art studio this week too. Partially moved last month and I’m waiting on the build out of a new glass working studio/laundry room. Looking forward to creating something with those sweet pendants of yours. Hope you have a successful show.
