Isn't it Romantic?




As previously mentioned, I have a total fixation about the hows why's and wherefores of getting onto the front page of etsy. In my first attempt to pander to etsy curator tastes, I ended up making this necklace some time last week. I kind of really, totally ended up loving it. It's made with these vintage beads - the rectangular ones are called blue goldstone and they are like deep navy/violet and have this kind of sparkle that comes from within; they're just spectacular. And then the round ones have this kind of silvery, eerie, almost holographic glimmer to them. Very cool. So I decided that in order to test the waters, I would wear this necklace (I made a matching bracelet too) to the wedding last weekend. It was a hit. Now to post it on my etsy shop and see if the hipster treasury curators over there think so.
