Vintaj “Twinkling Lights” December 2012 Challenge

Written By: admin - Nov• 28•12

“The lights begin to twinkle from the rocks;
The long day wanes; the slow moon climbs; the deep
Moans round with many voices. Come, my friends.
‘T is not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die…”
Alfred Lord Tennyson

I used a Vintaj Natural Brass Co. Deco Vines piece for the focal, Vintaj Aged Broze Patina, nylon cord, glass, wood, metal and dyed bone beads, metal findings and dark annealed bailing wire.

    Stunning focal design. And your supporting beads are just superb in every detail!

  2. WOW! 2 challenges the same day. I don’t think I would have been that brave. This piece is awesome.

  3. What a great design! I am always impressed with how you push the limits of a component and rework it into something else completely. It never would have occurred to me to stitch the pieces together! Enjoy the day. Erin
