I have never been able to attend a Chain Link Conference, but a part of me is always there. Every year I enter the design competition, and this necklace is what I entered this year. Unfortunately, it didn't win a prize, but I love this piece and I wanted to show it to you.
When I lived in England, I used to frequent second hand shops. I was into making mini mosaics at the time, so I collected bits and pieces of china to use. This plate was bought in Newcastle, and it reminds me of my time there. I am not into buying traditional souvenirs, so this how I remember northern England!
I embellished the necklace with beads and embroidery to create a unique, one of a kind piece. I just need to find the right outfit to wear it with, so I can host a fabulous tea party!
This is a very nice piece - shame you did not win with it, it is definitely prize worthy!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI definitely think it would have been prize-worthy (so much great competition at Chain Link!). It's a very beautiful piece.
