Hello all you soup-ers and welcome to my bead soup! My partner for this go around was the lovely Eleanor from Corner Store Goddess. This is what she sent me to play with - a dragon fly themed soup that I loved instantly:
I am all about long necklaces lately. I played around with some chain, and then thought of glueing on a bail or drilling a hole into the focal, to suit a lariat design I had in mind. Then I pawed through my stuff and found some gold colored beading wire, a couple of my own lamp work beads and a bunch of the soup, and had one side designed. I found some interesting chain, then decided to add seed beads to the beading wire to make it as long as the chain. I was stumped by the clasp - so decided to use the dragon fly portion as a charm on the chain side along with a sparkly dangle. I am generally a matching/symmetrical design person, so I wanted to ignore all that and see where it ended up. What do you think?

One hard thing about long necklaces? How to capture it all in a picture. I have a dress form I got from Ikea of all places - it's meant for kids rooms - but luckily it's long enough to see most of the necklace:
I made some earrings too!
Many thanks to our hostess, and please take some time to check out all the other soupers!

So pretty, great job xx Nat
ReplyDeleteSpectacular use of that challenging soup. Love what you did, and I really like how you photographed your pieces.
ReplyDeleteNice. Love the earrings.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful!!! I love what you did with the focal and the asymmetrical approach. Great idea to use the clasp as a charm!
ReplyDeleteLovely necklace and earrings :)
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely work well done!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful necklace!
ReplyDeleteGreat job with the asymmetrical design - that is not easy!
ReplyDeletevery pretty. I've been getting into the long necklaces lately too. I think they are slimming :D
ReplyDeleteAah, dragonflies - love your pieces! Great job on the asymmetric necklace, you put it together beautifully.
ReplyDeleteI like where you ended up. I've been doing longer necklaces lately too. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love how you added the tiny stone beads and wove it through the chain!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful use of your soup. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteYour design is very lovely and inventive, Elisabeth.... I love asymmetry but haven't mastered it :)
ReplyDeleteI'm all about long necklaces too - not only lately ;0) Nice soup, Elisabeth!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying all the longer necklaces this time around. Yours is lovely, I like the style of chain you've chosen. It balances out the design without being to heavy, well done!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, long necklaces are where it is at! So much space to use all these lovely goodies, fantastic work using your soup
ReplyDeleteThat soup is adorable, and your necklace turned out so well! I really like the earthiness of it.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love dragonflies! They are like flying gems. What an awesome soup and I love what you did with it. Especially the earrings with the dragonfly cabs.
ReplyDeleteI think you did a fantastic job, it is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh the asymetry works beautifully! I love the idea of mixing seed bead strands with chain. Perfect little earrings too. Sigh! I'm in love!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. I particularly like the earrings as they really capture the lightness of the dragonfly - look like they could up and fly away at any moment. Well done.
ReplyDeleteReally like what you did with your soup!
ReplyDeleteI love the asimmetry of your necklace, and that little cute charm on the side!!!
ReplyDeleteYay for dragonflies! Double-yay for assymetrical necklaces featuring dragonflies!!! Triple-yay for incorporating lampwork beads and funky chain too! LOVE how this turned out - AND - you made some spiffy earrings too!
ReplyDeleteWhile you didn't get one of those huge soups, you made judicious use of the beads you got, very nice work indeed
ReplyDeleteAll creations are so feminine, delicate and elegant! My fav is the first necklace! Good job!
ReplyDeleteThe earrings are my fave - so pretty and they look light and fun to wear!
ReplyDeleteI love the clasp with the cute little charm added. Great idea to drill the hole in the stone focal. Looks great
ReplyDeleteI think it's very beautiful! Love the little dangle there!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the beads your partner sent you and you managed to do them total justice...Your designs are charming and so pretty...ty so much for sharing them with us...You did an amazing job...bye now gotta hop along...lol
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about how hard it is to capture a long necklace in a photograph. But you made a beautiful necklace and managed to show it off very well! The matching earrings are perfect.
ReplyDeleteVery nice pieces :-) I love the necklace because of the combiantion of beads, chain and seed beads. And the focal is beautiful. Great soup!
ReplyDeleteAwesome soup! I love how you put everything together....great job!

I love the subtle design of your work.
ReplyDeleteA charming asymmetrical design and great use of the dragonfly part of the clasp where it can be seen :) Love the mixture of metal colors!
ReplyDeleteHi Elisabeth, You did a wonderful job of asymmetrical. Your necklace is great and so are the earrings.
ReplyDeleteI have tried asymmetrical, my brain just doesn't really want to wrap around it and ultimately makes it symmetrical lol Great soup!
ReplyDeleteI love the earth tones of the soup you received. I love how you incorporated the focal in the necklace and how it's symmetrical. I like how you made earrings with the left overs. A great set.
