These three oval beads, with double loops to make as connectors, or part of a link in a chain, are made to look similar, but they're not identical.
Since I hand tint all of them, making them look rustic and ancient and applying the color to each one, they can never be just exactly alike.
But I like that about them. They have small differences, but they are similar enough to use in a related design.
I wanted them to have that patina of age, with the dark blue barnwood color, like they've been out in the weather for a long time, in sun and rain, a natural darkened surface that tells a story.
I really like these, Lynn!
ReplyDeleteSue, When I made them, I admit I did think of you, LOL! Glad you like them.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I like how the leaves feel like they wrap over the edge of the beads.
ReplyDeleteJust love these beads. They have a great antique look to them.
ReplyDeleteThese are so nice Lynn, I love the painterly quality to them and the depth you achieve with color. And that teeny bit of red, AHHH, love it!
