Inspired By A Stranger / Вдъхновение от непозната

It's the 2nd Bead Peeps Swap'n'Hop reveal day (more details here). Isn't it fascinating how you are inspired by a total stranger (I found out I had pinned some of Robin Showstack's designs earlier) and choices you wouldn't or couldn't make? So far, I've been very lucky to receive soups that have inspired me to create, learn and make new things.
Днес всички участници във Втората международна размяна на елементи за бижута 2nd Bead Peeps Swap'n'Hop трябва да публикуват творенията си. Вълнуващо е как се вдъхновяваме от избора на някой непознат, който ние самите не бихме или не бихме могли да направим, нали? Досега съм имала страшен късмет и партньорите ми са ме вдъхновявали да творя, научавам и правя нови неща.

The Exquisity Necklace / Колие "Изящество"

I had never held such a fragile jewelry item (the exquisite porcelain focal by Splendid Loon Studio) in my hands before and was haunted by the fear of dropping it. I always placed it on a big soft pad, carried it around in a box and tried it on... in bed :) I made a three-strand floating necklace with 3-mm and 4-mm transparent green crystal bicones, 3-mm lavender and dark grey Swarovski pearls and white and dark grey cultured river pearls. I spiraled my own cone end caps on round nose pliers from 925 sterling silver plated wire and attached a 925 sterling silver lobster clasp. It's both lush and light and the pendant is the star - mission accomplished! And I know I made up the word "exquisity" but I love it :)
Никога не бях държала в ръцете си толкова крехка висулка (изящната порцеланова висулка на Splendid Loon Studio) и постоянно се страхувах да не я изпусна - по време на работа я поставях върху мека подложка, разнасях я в кутия и мерих колието... в леглото :) Избрах да направя невидимо колие, за да подсиля усещането за лекота. Добавих прозрачни зелени кристали 3 и 4 мм, 3-мм перли Сваровски в лилаво и сиво и бели и тъмни речни перли. Направих конусообразни капачета от посребрена тел, а закопчалката е сребърна (проба 925). Богатство и лекота - мисията изпълнена!



The Koi Pond Necklace / Колие "Езерцето Кои"

I wire wove the Green faux sea glass and Koi fish spacers from Robin to create this necklace. I attached it to a coiled wire bar and added the smaller of the two clasps Robin sent me on one side. What can I say - I love asymmetry!
Оплетох с тел зеленото стъкло - имитация на морско стъкло и добавих разделителите  с формата на рибки "кои" за украса. Закачих висулката на увит от тел елемент и отстрани поставих по-малката от двете закопчалки, които получих. Какво да направя, като харесвам асиметрията.



The No Name pendant / Висулка без име

I am often guilty of excess wire weaving, mostly for two reasons: I improvise and I use long wire pieces. Thе pink faux sea glass had a textured surface and I wanted it to be visible. So the weaving was more modest but with a heavily woven bail. It it weren't sinister, I would've named this pendant "The Three-Eyed Fish" :)
Често прекалявам с оплитането, най-вече поради две основни причини: импровизирам и, за всеки случай, си режа по-дълги парчета тел. Розовото стъкло, имитация на морско стъкло, имаше грапава текстура от едната страна и исках да се вижда. Затова оплитането е по-скоро скромно, но отново съм се отнесла с държача. Ако не звучеше зловещо, бих го нарекла "Триоката риба" :)



Just to remind you what I got from Robin Showstack - I've got a lot left to have fun with!
Нека ви припомня какво получих от Робин Шоустек - останах ми доста неща, с които да се забавлявам!


Thank you, Robin, for the inspiration! Thank you, Linda, for the hop! You can find the list of all the participants at the end of this post. You can see the amazing things Robin did with my soup here!

    1. Thank you! The faux sea glass pieces were so well made - chipped like the real thing and with the perfect texturing that's difficult to find in nature - I have just 3-4 of these :)
