Hi,
Lorelei's wonderfully arranged Fusion Beads Challenge. All wonderful beads and parts to be used however we wished to. And although I was lucky and managed to get hold of all the components I have not used them all. The GGS owl clasp will end up on a bracelet instead, I believe, with round amazonites. And there is one more necklace ready that I just didn't get around to photograph today, so I will post that one tomorrow, along with Swedish Lesson #2. So please come back one more time for that.
I get a very autumny feeling from my pieces. I made one necklace:
See that magnetic big ball brass clasp. I just had to use that one, it goes so well with the other beads I think. I have also added two colours of facetted cats eye beads, Miyuki 4mm cubes in various colours, a few stripey orangey seed beads, a yellow top drilled bicone glass bead, and a big orangey cloisonne type bead with flowers on that I for my life can't remember where I got (I have only very few so I know it was rather pricey).
The earrings:
I directly saw that I wanted to join the lucite leaves with MissFickleMedias black petals. They are dangling from a short bit of chain. Lucite flowers with small Lorelei Tin Snippet bead caps. And from the flower another three orange seed beads dangling.
Now- Get to Hopping!

Love those earrings. The bracelet is wonderfully full of texture. That magnetic ball clasp is tops. I would never have known it was a clasp it you hadn't said. Great work.
Malin, one word: beautiful!
Beautiful pieces Malin - I especially love the earrings and the punch of color you added to the necklace. Great job!
WOW! eeeek my bead caps!! I love it! they turned out so pretty! I love the red and yellow accent colors with the other beads- very creative! I am so thrilled you were the first to actually show off the bead caps in action! I may have to send you a little prize for that. ;)
I love the earrings, too cool. The punch of color in the necklace is great!
Amazing. I never would have thought to add bright red to the design the way you did. It is just lovely and a beautiful design. Earrings are to die for too!

I love yor look you created both in necklace and ear-rings, but the earrings really appeal. Love the mixture of dark metal and light lucite with the tin caps, what a fun whimsical look.
