Description (2017), 9"x4", Size 15 seed beads: transparent celery, transparent silver-lined chartreuse and size 11 seed beads: bronze-lined beige, transparent beige ab, bone white, transparent celery, transparent neon green-lined, worked in Ndebele stitch, closure beads, focal glass art beads, fireline.

I'm absolutely in love with the delicate colors and intricate detail of this focal bead with its layers of cream and varied subtle greens accented by just a little bit of golden glitter from dichroic glass. It has beautiful fins and swirls and "eyes" as well. All I really needed to do was dig in my bead-box and find a few colors that picked up on the color scheme of the bead and now this is a piece that will really stand out against a bit of a summer tan.

If you want to learn how to makes these you can find the instructions or pattern here.
