Amber and Leaves

Description

My good friend Kelly describes herself as the "outdoorsy" type. She proclaimed her love for amber, which, if you dont know, is the petrified remains of tree sap. So, for christmas, i made her a necklace and earrings made with rough chunks of amber, gold-coloured metal leaves and golden glass leaves and tiger's eye beads and gold coloured glass seed beads. She loved it! yay! I really liked it too, the colours are very nice.

I also must thank my friend Tanya for giving me the gold coloured glass beads! they fit in there perfectly!!! And I hope my friend Ella never shows up with HER amber necklace on cuz... well... i had enough to make two necklaces :) tee hee hee hee

***The amber was purchased at one of my favorite bead stores, "Beady i" in Bronte Village Mall, Oakville. They are SUPER nice in there!!! and i design their ads too :) It's the only place i've seen REAL chunks of amber, not "amber coloured plastic" or "amber coloured glass" and they have a great selection and really really good prices!!!

I will do commissions if anyone wants one of these :) *wink*

I have a ton of those little gold leaf beads!! I've been making a lot of stuff with them lately...

I personally like the earrings better than the necklace, they're so... dangly and leafy :) But the necklace is very pretty, and really nice for someone who is the 'outdoorsy type.'
