Peacock Necklace

Barb Reed made these beads and I fell in love with them, she said take them see what you can make with them so I did, you don't have to tell me twice.  They have been sitting on my little shelf for several months just waiting for an idea to come along and last night that idea hit me like a sledge hammer.  I kept seeing them as peacock feathers so that feather shape was what I used for the links.  Barb has and Etsy and Artfire store, if you're interested in seeing more click on the links.

  1. Wow. This is really something special. I love the links you created. Over at Art Bead Scene our theme is a painting called Black Peacocks with Japanese Persimmons. This would fit in so well there. I encourage you to come and check it out! Enjoy the day. Erin

  3. The beads are great, but what gets my attention the most is the chain you created to string the beads together. Very cool!
