Wednesday's Wear It Or Frog It.

No before picture this week as this is an update from last weeks Wear It or Frog It piece. I loved the little acorn I made last week so much that I made another. I dug out some lovely olive seed beads and made a simple spiral rope necklace, looping one end so that the acorn drops through to close the necklace. This weekend I got a bit of a bee in my bonnet about the number of wips I have hidden about the place, which resulted in what I am now calling the great wip cull of 2010. I ripped out loads of unfinished pieces and now have a huge bag of beads to reuse including over 450 Swarovski crystals! I will post pics later. We'd love to see pics of any pieces that you have reinvented. You can add photo's to our Flickr group http://www.flickr.com/groups/1455268@N20/

This is a very nice piece. Perfect for fall. Acorns seem to be the in nut this season. LOL

Wow this is gorgeous Sarah! The pendant is beautiful and I love how you've used similar shades for the inner and outer beads of the rope, it's looks really lush :)

Bobbi thank you for stopping by my blog. Your comment brought with it a huge smile!

I am so in awe at your talent with beads! OMG! I sooo could not do this. My best friend beads also and lord knows she tried to teach me and gave up!
