I have pendants and art beads I bought and the more color, complicated, intricate, detailed they are….well lets say they are still sitting in my stash and will remain there.
From one of my readers, “they are just too hard for me to incorporate into a design.”
When I set out to design my Peeled Paint art beads and Gin Blossom pendants, I really kept that in mind. “KISS.” right?

OMG! I love the designs w/the Gin Blossom pendant – so sparkly and gorgeous! I love crystals and you made them work so well with the various colors of the Gin Blossom Pendant focal – makes me want to wear it out for dinner and drinks!!
Plus, gotta say I like the peeled art beads, too – love the colors of the ones posted here. I’m taken w/those earrings! Sweet!!!
Thanks for letting me join in the fun – this is a great experience!
So awesome Miss Jeannie! I love the look of the foiling on the pieces. It really lends a touch of elegance to the shapes. This has been a great challenge. I have enjoyed hopping around. You are marvelous, my friend!
Enjoy the day!

Wow! Such an elegant piece. I love how the foil dresses both the Gin Blossom and bead caps up. But then I am a huge fan of red/black and gold!
Thank you for allowing me to play!
Jeannie – Wow – what beautiful designs! The bead caps are fantastic, and the beads and the caps look amazing with the Gin Blossom! I also love your cyan set – beautiful colors and such a wearable design – beautiful!
Again, thank you so much for including me in your club – I just love your beads and pendants and can’t wait to work with them again!
Beautiful as always!
Beautiful design – love the color choices and love those bead caps!
Thanks for including me among such talented designers and the opportunity to play with such wonderful pendants!!
I love your pendant and especially your peeled paint beads. They’re great. It really turned out great. I’ve checked out some of the other participants and they all did a wonderful job.
Wow, look at all those pretties! Can’t wait for next month, when I’m in, too.
I love the pop of red on the gin blossom necklace! And those Cyan Planet earrings? Perfectly named!
That first necklace — incredibly rich, like what you’d wear to the opera (I’m not sure why “the opera” jumped into my mind). Absolutely love the clusters!
