BSBP 3rd Reveal - Aug 25th 2012 - Part 1

Finally...
The final reveal of Bead Soup Blog Party on the air. Time for me to show-off my design. It's quite sad story actually for me, cause I lost my bead soup when it on the way to my home address. My partner Solange Collin sent me very awesome, beautiful, yummy beads soup. 
Here the photo :
But when the package arrived to my address, I only found these two vintage west africa glass beads :
*fighting*
So...here I am trying my best to turn these two beads into focal bead and toogle (cause the main requirement for this party is using the focal and toogle clasp). I hope Solange will love the way I turned her unique beads into pendant and necklace.

The Focal Pendant
I made this pendant from :
1 vintage West Africa Glass Bead from my partner Solange
MKG White Clear Seedbeads
3 pcs Small Bead Caps
2 pcs Faceted Peridot Gemstones Tear Drop
6 pcs Swarovski #3700 Flower Margarita Beads Jonquil
1 pcs Swarovski #5040 Rondelle Bead Fern Green/Topaz Blend
Fireline Braided Beading Thread .0006

The Necklace With Special Toogle
I made this necklace used :
1 vintage West Africa Glass Bead from my partner Solange
Soft Touch Best Beading Wire .019
Manik Jawa Peridoty Seedbeads
Light Green Bugle Manik Jawa beads
MKG White Clear Seedbeads
2 pcs Handmade Sunflower Clay Beads by Wulan Pelita Craft

When the pendant and the necklace put into together, here the result :
"End Of Summer" Necklace
Final looks for "End Of Summer" Necklace
I'm thrilled to introduce you with my partner for this reveal...Solange Collin...far away from blue continent 'Europe', she lives in Nancy - France. Solange is jewelry designer with her passion to what they call primitive art. Primitive art? Aaahhhh...when you have visit to her shop you will find out what is that. I love her jewelry concept, simple and elegant style. I hope what I have sent for her last month can explore her passion on African art, cause I sent her replica of African glass bead plus some etnic java glass beads too.
Curious how she will turn those beads above? Just simply click here


P.S.
I had received news from Solange that she had sent the 2nd bead soup through Tanya for me. Well, I guess I'll have double reveal day then *smile* Stay tune for my second reveal please...
Thank you Tanya of Fusion Muse and Solange Collin *big hug*

  4. So sorry to hear about your beads getting lost/taken. But I think you made a lovely necklace with the 2 beads you did get, using them in the spirit of the BSBP and making a focal and clasp with them. Hopefully we'll see your '2nd' reveal soon. :)

  5. Wow, talk about turning lemons into lemonade! It had to be so painful when most of your package didn't make it. But I love the two beads that did finish their journey to you, and how you jumped in to find ways to meet the challenge guidelines anyways.

    Very beautiful!
