My flower necklace is an Ohio Beaders challenge. Participants sent beads and findings to names drawn by the group owner. The focal bead is a beautiful ceramic piece. Blues, browns and greens are my favorite colors so I made this one to fit me. It is a keeper!
Our latest Ohio Beaders challenge is "I Found It". My "found it" is an iron ore ball that I found on The Greenway Trail. An old railroad bed which has been turned into a bike/walk trail. I had a concessions business on the trail years back. I wire wrapped and caged the iron ore ball in copper wire. The focal is two and one quarter inches from top to bottom. Rather large so I hung it from a twenty five inch copper chain.
My last project was for the people in the Philippines. A local family has been severely affected by the storm. I made fourteen prayer beads which were sold at a fundraiser this week. We raised several hundred dollars. All will go to their family. I am so proud of the generous people in our small town. Way to go Geneva!
