ZnetShows New Arrivals Blog Hop

Znetshows.com has some new arrivals that they wanted us designers to feature today. The first piece that I designed was a necklace using the stack set in cherry red. It is item #PMX11-B05 and here is the link so you can purchase a stack set if you would like http://www.znetshows.com/Stack-Set_c_2083.html  I put graduated white Znet pearls between the  cultured sea glass pieces and made them into links. I then added some hematite rounds for accents and suspended it all from gold chain. This design shows that it does not take a lot of beads to make an impact.
My second item is a bracelet. The znet product is the button clothing in royal blue. The link to find it is http://www.znetshows.com/Button-Clothing_c_2079.htm . I used wire to put 6mm olive cultured sea glass rounds item # S04-B22 flanked by silver peanut beads through the button holes. The wire attaches it all to silver curb chain. In this design I wanted the clothing buttons to be the feature so I kept the design simple.

    Oh Becky, what fun designs!! I agree that you don't need a lot of beads to make an impact and your necklace design definitely illustrates that well. And, that bracelet. . . it's so fun and out of the box! You did an awesome job with this challenge! :)

    Beautiful! I wouldn't have thought of using the stack bead that way. And I really like the bracelet..the royal blue is really pretty. Great job.

      Thanx Vera, Using the stack like I did just seemed natural to me. Royal blue is one of my favorite colors. I put it with the olive and I was pleased with how it looked. Then I just need a way to connect the components. I am glad that you like my designs.

    Weren't the buttons fun to work with? I used them to decorate a bracelet as well. The sea glass is so lovely. It's fun seeing how you decided to use the stacked beads, too.

      Thanx Karen, I liked the buttons too. I have another idea for them also but I did not have time to complete it yet as I had a family picnic at my house yesterday. I am thrilled with the sea glass that znet produces. All of the color are beautiful and the matte finish adds so much to my designs.

    The pearls really set off the blue sea glass in the necklace. I found your bracelet design unique and interesting. Well done!

      Thanx Cynthia, I am pleased that you like my designs. My sister suggested the chain for the bracelet because I was having a problem with keeping the buttons flat.
