Coexist choker

I've wanted to do the 'coexist' bumper sticker image as beadwork for months, and finally did so! The pattern was an interesting challenge to make.

I've also never posted a picture here, so any tips on exactly how this works and how not to skew my photo are greatly appreciated. I couldn't get my photo to show, though I clicked on the symbol and tried to upload like it said. My post just showed an empty frame.

 I love this! Great work :)

Thanks! It took a while to select just the right beads for the yin/yang interior, as I was already using silver.

 Very cool! Also I quite liked the dialoug between you and LKJSlain... nice to hear people agreeing to disagree respectfully!

That is awesome! I've already asked Pam if she could make me an armband like that. I absolutely agree with the sentiment 110% and would proudly wear it on my right upper arm. In fact, it would be an outstanding addition to my denim jacket. Maybe loom it and then stitch it directly to the arm? Hhmmmmm???? Do you have a pattern or a good pic of the bumper sticker? That would be most helpful. Thanks so much in advance.

 The choker is beautiful. I did look at the enlarged picture on your blog.

after reading post on your blog:

Well, (call me dense) I don't see ?? good or bad meaning in the "coexist" symbols, and words. (maybe I don't know their meaning, I would wear it as a bracelet. (don't like it, don't look)

I liked it!

I haven't seen the bumper sticker, but I do like the choker, and the message.  I browsed through the rest of your gallery also, and I love your work!  The "crime scene" & "toxic waste" lariats gave me a good chuckle, and your "diamond of protection" cuff is awesome!

The necklace is beautiful, as is the workmanship.  Beautiful.

 Oh, this is so cool, very great work!!

I tried to insert your link here, but it doesn't work. Don't know why. Maybe someone else has a solution for this problem.

Your choker is a beautiful piece! Love the idea behind it! Oh, and I browsed your gallery, too, and especially like your woven pendants.

The pattern is up in my Etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29873437

I finally got to see your choker when you posted your Etsy link, very cool.

Anyway I thought I'd try to make the links active/live?  I hope this works
