Necklace for Palapoo
Well, finally I'm posting something worthwhile. Here is the necklace I made for my San Diego pal (best friend from high school...the only friend I've really kept in touch with from that era of my life, although I did go to my 10 year high school reunion last year...yikes!!). The necklace is made with smoky quartz (the square stones) and carnelian. I used sterling silver chain with sterling silver spacer beads, hill tribe silver according to the lady at my local bead store, The Bead Shack. She is so awesome, she goes traveling the world and brings back all kinds of good stuff. The hill tribe people live in northeast Thailand and the surrounding areas. Anyway, I think the necklace turned out nice. I hope Paula likes it!! That and the great purple goddess soap I got at www.scrubyourbutt.com. Check it out, they have the funniest stuff.
As an aside, I have decided to start up a separate, more family appropriate blog at www.pink-houses.blogspot.com. I just felt weird giving out the hobags address to certain family members and friends. So Rhiannon and I can try to reserve this one for our crafty endeavors (you ought to see the bag she made me...it's awesome). Visit me at pink-houses!!! ~Tara
