Making a statement … necklace

While at BeadFest Philadelphia last month I picked up a small mix of beads called the “Euro Fashion Mix.” I’ve been dorking around with them for a bit and I think this is the layout I’ll go with for a fall necklace.

I'm not sure what kind of statement it will make other than SPARKLY.

This’ll go great with a crisp white blouse and a slick brown pencil skirt – two pieces I don’t even own.

The next step (I guess) will be to run the beading wire through and start crimping the beads in place. How many times do you think I’ll flip the bead board over and lose my work?

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
