Miniature Garden in Bloom - A Collaboration Project




Here is another collaboration project between two glass artists, myself and Kristy Kempinger. We are both members of the Etsy Glass Artists Street Team (EGA) www.etsyglass.com and the Lampwork Etc Street Team (LEST) www.webjam.com/lest

This miniature garden in bloom dangles unerringly from a burnished sterling silver bail. Kristy Kempinger of www.chickadeebeads.etsy.com created this gorgeous focal by decorating a transparent pearly base with subtle and delicate blue florals.The accent beads of pale transparent blue and green that I created and the various shades of pink pearls highlight the artistry of the focal without overpowering it. The focal measures approx 30mm with the overall necklace being 23 inches in length.
