Chris and Mina's Beading

These bead focals were made by Chris and they were strung up on seed bead necklaces in a jewelry frenzy.
This time it is mushrooms that got strung up on seed beads. My favorite is the one in the middle. Fall colors on both the mushroom and the seed bead mix. Mina made the second from the left. She might catch this bug yet! (Maybe that's not a good thing?!)
This necklace was made by me, and Chris was kind enough to replace the chain bail I had made that didn't work with a sterling one I purchased. It has a ceramic pendant with dragonflies and the spacers were made by Clay River Designs. There are also turquoise, stone, and amber seed beads and you guessed it, Swarovski!
Chris made this clever fellow sometime ago. He didn't really speak to us until last week, when he decided he wanted to be a pendant. The seed bead mix is called "circus", ironic huh?!

Chris made these bead sets and then I strung them onto corded necklaces. The one on the right and the blue and black really glow! Gorgeous!
