The Gossiping Goddess/Kaz Baildon Blog Hop

Welcome to my very first blog hop!!!!!

Way back in October a group of designers were randomly selected receive a free bead or beads from a huge stash very kindly gifted to the lovely Lesley Watt by the super talented glass artist Kaz Baildon.
I was lucky enough to be selected. I would not know which beads I would receive. I was asked to make something with them and then post on my blog. How exciting!!!

These are the beads I received.....


I decided to team them with some of my own simple lampwork spacers, a few Swarovski crystals, and some chain, and this is what I created!




Apologies for the poor quality photos, being a bit last minute I had no natural daylight!!!




Thank you very much Lesley for hosting such a lovely hop! Now I'm going to relax with a glass of wine and see what the other designers came up with...
