Description Bead Embroidered Necklace.

Inspired by the volcano, Hekla, on Iceland

Materials: A bunch of black beads in different sizes, shapes and finishes, accompanied by some gun metal colored beads. Focals used for this piece are 8mm round garnet cabochons, 8mm Swarovski crystal chatons, 8mm hematite cabochon and a shell fossil. The lava effect is mainly created with 3mm Swarovski crystal bicones in different red and orange shades. The fringe, to create the lava effect sprouting out from the crater is mainly created with 3 and 4mm Swarovksi crystal bicones and 11/0 seed beads by Miyuki in red and orange silver lined color/effect.

Heh, thought i would never use this large amount of Swarovski crystals ever in one piece, first time and there's easy over a 1000 pieces in there

Edit: Wow, a DD! Thank you so much to who suggested it and thank you for featuring it! My heart to a long leap in the air when I logged onto DA and noticed it ^^

Thank you so much, and yeah, the Swarovskis are the priciest part in the piece when it comes to materials

I love that piece you must have an awesome patience I nearly went nuts with this bracelet I have done: [link] and thats not a fraction of work you have done.
Have a great weekend dear

annafjellborg In reply to Nameda [2013-06-01 11:36:18 +0000 UTC]

I'm not sure if it's a question of patience when it comes to me - I'm rather impatience in a lot of things. I think it has more to do with stubbornness as I tend to get an urge to do something the moment the idea pops into my head and then I just HAVE to finish it
Wishing you a lovely weekend as well

Nameda In reply to annafjellborg [2013-06-01 17:31:46 +0000 UTC]

haha ok I am usually stubborn too, but I dunno if I one day be stubborn enough to create such things
but I have still to learn a load of techniques. I didn't get beyond basic peyote, tubular peyote, RAW and basic ladder stitch.
next will be cubic RAW and eventually herringbone. I tried that before but I don't get the hang of it yet.
So I let my fingers of such complicated jewellery as yours
