You may remember last week I 'won' some beads from Laura, basically because she made them and hated them, and called the poor little things Fuglies. The above is the necklace I made with them which I am really pleased with - I don't think they are fugly at all! I used copper wire, bashed it about to make the circular links and cooked all the bits in the oven for an hour to age them - thank you Sybille of Magpie Magic for your tips on how to do this! I then wired it all together using little matching blue glass beads in between the links. I was aiming for a very retro Sixties/Seventies look, inspired by the long strings of 'Love Beads' we used to wear back then. Hopefully I've pulled it off! Let me know what you all think.....
