I finally got some time to sit down and work on my beaded collar for the ArtBeads blog partnership. I'm so close to being done I can taste it.
I finished up the spiral rope and got that attached (using some more of those vintage beads I had laying around) and I got a bunch of the trim done. I wasn't sure if the trim was going to work, but I'm liking it so far. It frames the piece nicely and gives it a wonderful finished feeling.
So now I just need to finish up the trim and attach the great sterling silver leaf toggle clasp and I'll be done with it. I know that's awesome. It seems like I've been working in this piece forever. I'm ready to be done and see the finished piece. I'm happy with it thus far, lets just hope I'm as happy with it when I finish.
I don't think we have anything planned for this weekend, so maybe I'll have plenty of beading time. That would be nice.
