BSBP Reveal!

Here, at long last, is what I made from the soup that Crystal sent me! I was a little stressed this week and I've got another project with the glass mix she sent me on deck, but I whipped this up using one of the toggles and the focal since that was the important part for the reveal!Be sure to check out my partner's blog as well (linked to her name), and happy blog hopping!

I used some coral ovals with peridot chips and green crackle glass rounds and strung it all up together..I was going to add a little extra sparkle with some of the clear glass faceted rounds Crystal sent me, but I just couldn't get it arranged right...

 And of course I didn't have nearly enough peridot chips to go with the coral, but luckily the crackle glass matched it well enough...

Only had four pieces of the coral, so I added the chain after I ran out to finish it off and put the clasp on the side--really liking that style right now...

I've got a bracelet in the works with the other pinkish purple mix Crystal sent me, but I just didn't have time to do both. Maybe I'll post picture in the next reveal date? Or sooner ;) Check out Bead Soup Blog Party for the complete list!

My soup from Crystal

At long last, I finally remember to update! I've got some pictures of the soup that Crystal sent me, and hopefully they've turned out because I honestly can't remember what they looked like when I took them. Oh well. Here goes:

First, the toggle. There's lots of little drilled holes at the bottom and I feel like I should branch out and do something with them, but my mind is drawing a complete blank. I suppose I'll think of something...

On the left here, I've got some fire-polished glass faceted rounds that are full of sparkle. I like sparkle XD. And on the right, THREE toggle options (!!) and a pretty bronze filigree pendant/charm.

 Some fire-polished red faceted glass rounds....

A totally awesome mix of glass beads that I am totally digging (I have a focal bead that goes with this color combination PERFECTLY)....

Some little man-in-the-moon beads (at least that's what I've been calling them)....

And an overview shot of everything minus the focal. Great soup, thanks, Crystal! Reveal date is March 30, so tune back then! (Point of interest: that's also the day Doctor Who returns all-new and I'm SO EXCITED)
