Now, as some of you know, I have been having yucky eye problems, and have had a hard time meeting commitments because sometimes my eyes just will not cooperate, and I can't focus well enough to bead, or photograph (please forgive the photos, between the two of us, my hubby and I have about half a good eye, but we just keep trying). Fortunately, there was enough time on this one, that I was able to finish my piece, get the photos taken and write the blog piece, despite Blogger giving me some hassles that required me to download a new version of Internet Explorer and abandon Google Chrome, at least for now. The bad part about that is that Blogger lives at Google, but I had to use IE for this post, as recommended by the troubleshooting guide.
So, as I said earlier, Marie's beads reminded me of sand and sea, and sparkly things you find on the beach, so I just went with that. One side of my piece reminded me of the shore, with sand and sparklies, and the other side reminds me of waves, with a little section of glass rings that reminded me of sea glass. The Cellini spiral waves are also a nod to the beaded bead focals I sent to Marie, kind of a cosmic twinsie thing!
the blingy focal
the wavy side
the sandy side
the whole waterful wonderful piece
And now for more fun, visit all these wonderful blogs so you can experience the whole party, and make sure you visit the BSBP web site for the other two reveals, because this party doesn't end here. It has two more days of beady goodness! Have a great party!

I love that there are two sides to your piece ! The sea and the beach :) LOVE LOVE LOVE
You keep amazing me with all that you are able to do with eye problems! I can't imagine doing the cellini with bad eyes! I could totally 'see' the sea with your descriptions. Great job!
Gorgeous design! I love that you created two very different sides to the necklace and yet they blended so very well!
Wow...I don't do seed beads so this is truly amazing work!
~i can only imagine the amount of time and patience at hand when you created this beautiful piece...amazing indeed...much love light and blessings~
very unique! I love the mix of stitches and elements!! ~KM http://kraftymax.blogspot.com/2013/03/7th-bead-soup-blog-party-reveal-33113.html
absolutely fantastic! great job!
Lovely work! I'm not a bead stitcher so I can't imagine how you did that, even if you had perfect eyesight :)
Wonderful & intricate seed bead work on this necklace, a lovely design!!
What an interesting concept! I love what you did on the wavy side especially.
that seed beading must have taken forever but so worth it, it really makes the design pop
Such a beautiful piece! I just love the color combination. It really is lovely and with eye issues! congrats on a great necklace!
So beautiful how you combined beadweaving with bigger beads. Love it!
I love your story behind your piece and adore the Cellini spiral! You really made this your own!
I'm on the 3rd reveal, I'm partecipating for the 3rd time on BSBP
I love this necklace, you are so talented! great work :)
ciao dall' Italia
Love your free form, so well done!
I am always in awe of bead weavers - your piece is adorable! The asymmetry of the design is just perfect. Love it.
What a gorgeous necklace. I loved reading your post about it.
I have no skills with seed beads, yet I can truly appreciate the beauty of your creation! So Lovely!
If I saw a stranger wearing this necklace I would have to walk up to her and touch it. I would instantly know she was a fellow creative type. Wonderful job.
I love a necklace with a good story. Yours is stunning! Love the asymmetrical look. It would be like wearing fine art.
kathy
Stunning beadwork! Love the asymmetry and the beadwork is integrated beautifully in your work! Congratulations!
Great freeform piece. HOpe your eyes get to being better for you to create more lovely things
Wonderful asymmetric design. Love it.
Wow... gorgeous work!
Very unique!
Shannon,
Your soup works so well with your whimsical style and love the colors and unique bead work! Very Happy Soup! :) Kris
I love the contrast of the wavy side and sandy side. Very cool.
beautiful work well done!
Love it, very colorful and beautiful work.
WOW!!!
What a fun necklace! I especially enjoyed the freeform seed bead weaving. I hope your eye issues resolve and you can continue to bead. I looked through your site, where I saw a lot of really beautiful work. The bead world needs you!
I would have never guessed that you had any vision problems what-so-ever! The detail and beauty of your necklace is second to none. I can see the 'beach' theme, but in looking at it closer, it looks to me like you included a 'coral reef' into the design! Very Cool!!!
Beautiful necklace! Congrats!
Love the sea and sparklies theme!
It's Springtime!!! Sweet necklace, great job ♥
Super job!
So creative!
Love your necklace and that you beaded different parts of the lanscape to make up the whole waterfall scene
It's always nice to discover another seed beader in these hops -- really nice work on this! And now I need a trip to the beach...
Sweet, pretty , fun, I love the look and the colors! You did a Great Job!! Have a Blessed Day!
Amazing seed bead work, perfect colors!!
Wonderful work and colors!
love your soup mix,and what you created, great job.
Great job with your bead soup. Love the wavey side :)
I love your piece and I love the two sides!
Nice job with your soup..your beadwork is really nice.
Your necklace is absolutely gorgeous! I am so proud that you enjoyed the mix! Thank you so much for your effort and the beautiful mix that you sent. I have had so much fun with it, and I am so glad that I have had the distraction (playing with the beads!)
Much Love,
Marie
