Description This was my work for this week using Super Duos. I designed the star motifs and the triangles and assembled them into this necklace. I also have a smaller necklace style, bracelet, earrings etc. designed.

I'm quite happy with it but I learned you really have to balance the shiny with the not shiny. Too much metallic and you lose the design. It blends in too much. I must have torn out 20 prototype stars before I found the combination I wanted. I'm quite proud of this; I may teach a class on it but I'm booked up for April and possibly May.

Thank you! Frankly, I'm running out of ideas. All the good ideas are taken. Doing this on request makes it more stressful but it all works out.

Thank you! I can't tell you how many stars I made and ripped out trying to balance the shiny with the ...not shiny...

My original design had all metallics and you lose the design with so much bling. I like the end result.
