UPDATE: I didn’t even place. Sigh. Ah well…such is life, eh? :grin:

So…there’s this contest on Etsy that ends this weekend. It’s a design contest for beads. I just posted my entry and I crave feedback!

I call it Rhapsody

The necklace is 24 inches long, so it goes right over my melon head. (which means it will fit normal craniums as well!) And the pendant is 3.5 inches long by 2 inches wide. I made the treble clef myself out of heavy copper wire and embellished it with Swarovski crystals and my hand-dyed Serendipibeads. The strand is also made of Serendipibeads and tubes of 53 year old sheet music. Brahms, to be exact.

And I also made matching earrings:

So…. what do you think?
