Art Jewelry Elements Component of the Month March Challenge

I was fortunate enough to have my name drawn out of a hat (well, Jo's pottery dish) to win one of Art Jewelry Elements Components of the Month to make something with.  Jo Tinley of Daisychain Design made the component of the month for March, a hollow bead that she made and stamped with daisys.  The daisys she stamped on the bead led to my use of the daisy beads in the necklace.

I had enough of the sea green daisys to have six for the necklace and two for earrings.  I strung alternating copper beads and the daisys with the Component of the Month as the center piece.

  7. Carolyn, what a great combination of colors - the blue works beautifully with the copper! And I love that you chose to put the clasp on the side instead of the back - adds more interest in the front. Nice job!
