Today is the reveal for Lisa Lodge's Pine Ridge Treasures Clay and Metal Blog Hop reveal.
This will be a reveal sorta. It will have to be a reveal in two parts because I have before pictures (if I can get to them, camera is not being cooperative) but no after pictures. The finished pieces are over at my beading partners' house and I won't be able to get them until later today. I was just looking at my camera to see what pictures I have and only found the two before pictures I remembered to get before I completed the pieces that I made.
I just love the clay pieces that Sharyl McMillian-Nelson makes and sells in her three shops. Everytime she has a sale I manage to find a couple of more pieces to add to my collection.
I received three pieces clay pieces, one a large pendant and two smaller charms, made by Sharyl and some clear beads from Lisa's stash.
Part 2 - the actual pictures. I was never able to get the before pictures off my camera. Will have to do some tinkering I guess.

I used white pearls from my stash, the blue matte finish bows and hearts from my friend and beading partner, Evelyn, and clear beads that I got from Lisa to make a necklace. I wanted to keep the piece light so I stayed away from any large sized beads.
I used the two small charms as earrings adding some pearls so that they coordinated but did not match the necklace perfectly. Aren't the earrings with their snowflakes cute? What do you think?
I am going to try for some better pictures and see what I can come up with. I need to really show-off Sharyl's components. So there might be a part 3 reveal in the next day or two.
