On October 2, Lorelei Euroto challenged her blog readers. I decided to take up that challenge. Believe me, I am so glad I did! Here's the blog post.
Summarizing quickly, Lorelei challenged her blog readers to go to Michael's and find beads and chain that matched as closely as possible to the ones she chose. Of course, if we weren't able to find the exact matches, we were able to choose those beads and chain that were close.
Here's a look at the beads. I came very close to the ones Lorelei chose.
Now, for the reveal! Be sure to scroll down a bit.
Drum Roll, Please!!!!!!!
I'm so happy! I love my new necklace!
Now, let's go blog hopping!
Here's the list!
Enjoy!

It is so wonderful to see all the different ways we each translated the same beads. Thank you for sharing your wonderful piece.
How very fun! What a clever idea using your focal pendant as a clasp. I also like how you've snaked the chain throughout your piece. Nicely done!
What a cute design! And the white wire, love it! Wasn't this so fun?
cute! very wearable. and what's better than to love something you made?
What a fun necklace! I like the way you incorporated the chain, and the added white wire with your focal ties the whole design together. Great job!
Love it. So many folks have added blue into the mix and it is wonderful. Thanks.
Lovely piece Mallory! The focal is to die for!
Thank you!
