dance of the sugar plum fairy

Still trying to get rested up and my studio back in order after the bead show. However, I wanted to share this custom order from the bead show, which is going out the door as soon as my oven shuts off. The gal bought the focal shown in the photo and wanted matching lentils for earrings and some darker pink spacers that match (she bought some lighter pink spacers at the show). Anyway, I just loved the focal. The whole time I was making it I thought about the dance of the sugar plum fairy, which of course would have been the name. I have a thing about names. :)

    Hi Chris, It was nice seeing you at the show. I got a focal similar to this from you & got a seed bead mix that I’m thinking of using with it. But I like these spacers you made & will have to contact you if I need some, too. I think your beads are outstanding. The quality really can’t be beat.
