Do you recognize this? You make something and it's not working out like you expected? And it lies around for ages. And that's a shame because it contains nice quality beads and the basic idea was OK.

Hi Karin, i am absolutley with you :), i have that all the time... the second necklace is amazing....uuuh i so like your colorway there, the pink and rose after the bright orange and lilac... very cool.... i am just in the beginning of getting more adventurous with colors.

It's probably one of the more elaborate pieces I've created.

OMG, Karin, that's amazing! And I know just how you feel, because that's how it was for me with my "Partly Sunny" necklace. I knew how I wanted it to look in my head, and had it sketched out, but it wasn't translating well. So I left it alone for a few days and then, dink! lightbulb over the head! I have it posted in Reader's Showcase; you may have to search for it. I believe it's under the heading "You Want it; You got it!"

It wasn't half bad before; it's totally amazing now!

Do you recognize this? You make something and it's not working out like you expected? And it lies around for ages. And that's a shame because it contains nice quality beads and the basic idea was OK.

And then, all of a sudden, you know that to do with it. So you take it apart and start again. And that's how Soraya came to life. I'm going to make more necklaces like this. I simply adore them.
