Shannon Chomanczuk and Lorelei Eurto set up another fun filled jewelry design challenge. Thank you Shannon and Lorelei.
They put together a selection of beads from Lima Beads and this is what ended up in the bead kit:
The only items that I did not incorporate into my designs are the Silver Green Biwa Top- Drilled Pearls, the turquoise nuggets and the Flamingo Glace Hand dyed silk ribbon. I chose not to use the pearls because, if the drill holes are there, they are way too tiny. Several had no holes at all. Saving the turquoise for another design. The silk ribbon is gorgeous, so I’m going to enjoy looking at it until the perfect design for it surfaces. I enjoy working with challenges because I get to incorporate components that I would probably never select on my own. Two necklaces with reversible pendants, an owl themed necklace , and one bracelet:

Your pieces are breathtaking, and so unique! I love the colors you added, completely changing the look of the kit from pastel to vibrant. The textures of your pieces are just amazing!
Your pieces are out of this world gorgeous. Just love them all. So inventive and such wonderful color combos. Congrat!!!
Jewelry like those pictured are the reason why I have your blog in my RSS feed- I would not want to miss seeing any of it. Splendid and always inspiring.
Love these pieces, especially that first necklace. Great job!
What wonderful pieces. The owl is my favorite, but then owls remind me of my grandmother so I have an affinity for them.
Such amazing artwork – stunning! My favorite is the owl necklace, as they are my current obsession – lol! Beautiful work! 🙂
Love your designs! I really love how you paired the purple components with red accents! Classic and stunning! Great pieces all of them… and you’re right, the silk is too, too pretty. That’s why it sat on my table for 2 weeks with me oogling over it! LOL
Have a terrific day!
Wow! Really incredible! Love the necklace in blues with the macramé – it’s one of a kind!
Love your pieces. Great use of color and fiber. Each one is prettier than the last!
Absolutely gorgeous pieces, I love your work. You’re my inspiration…
Cece, Your work is amazing. I love the knotting/macrame. The colors you chose compliment the beads so well. I adore the first necklace. (I’m a sucker for purple). Thank you so much for such wonderful inspiration.
Wow your pieces are great! I love how you mixed so much texture into each piece.
Great job and I hope you had fun!

Oh my gosh, you made a ton of things and each one is amazing! I am particularly partial to the owl, but I’m sitting here BLOWN AWAY by the focal you created for the green necklace. Incredible. 🙂
Superb job! You really did amazing, and your photographs are the bomb!!
Love the red and purple in that first necklace. And the fact that you layered the pendant, that’s my favorite. Love layering lately!
Your bracelet turned out adorable! Those purple flowers were a bit of a challenge, but not for you!
These are drop-dead gorgeous. I happen to especially love red and purple together so I was drawn to that. I love though how you’ve made colors that are basically muted POP. Great job!
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look see. I’m certainly enjoying everyones designs as a result of this challenge. So much fun to work with all the components. Next I need to tackle those Biwa top drilled pearls.
CeCe – FANTASTIC! Amazing pieces! Totally different colors in each one. Really great!
These are all awesome – great designs! Love the textures and colors and the way you mixed materials – love the fibers!!
I’d say I have a favorite of your designs, but they are all spectacular! Very colorful and unique!
Your little Hedgehog is beautiful! I have had a fascination with them since I was little – great work!\H.
