Ocean's Heart - Cuore dell'oceano

Am I Blue?

This necklace was created for the Etsy Beadweavers March 2014 Challenge, "Am I Blue?" Please see more beautiful entries at our team blog and vote for your favorite one between March 9th and 15th at www.etsy-beadweavers.blogspot.com

Yes! I think I'm totally Blue ... I choose Aquamarine (March's birthstone).
The pendent is made by using a beautiful Swarovski Elements Pear Cabochon and a Aquamarine Swarovski Heart.

The necklace I handmade using Aquamarine Guttermann seed beads 9/o which I crocheted to make this tubular effect.

Work in Progress ...

Are You Blue? 

is the theme for the March challenge of the EBW team.

Use Aquamarine (March's birthstone), or use Turquoise or use Tanzanite; use the colors individually, or two of the colors together or better yet...all three together, because the more Blue, the better! 

And now I'm working on it ...

Natural Seashell Tangerine Tango Bead Embroidered Pendant Necklace - EBWC

https://www.etsy.com/listing/102711238/natural-seashell-tangerine-tango-bead

I created this pendent for the July Etsy Beadweavers Team Challenge. The theme of this challenge is "Tangerine Tango", the new pantone color of the year. The idea of this theme is that the completed piece should have a predominance of that color.
“Please visit our team blog, http://www.etsy-beadweavers.blogspot.com between the 9th and 15th of July and vote for your favorite entry.”


This necklace features a beautiful orange seashell in the center of the pendent.
The challenge theme provided the perfect opportunity to use it. The rest of the pendent was embroidered with a variety of cylinder and seed beads in the shades of tangerine tango.Pendant is backed with gray ultra suede and measures 5cm long and 4 cm wide. It hangs on a 60 cm of orange cotton cord and close with a beautiful metal toggle clasp.
