oh happy day!


my sweet friend kate over at shibori girl recently celebrated her 200th post by offering this gorgeous necklace as a giveaway........and i won!! and let me tell you, when kate celebrates, she does it big! this stunning piece of jewelry was created by kate herself.....she first made the kaleidoscope polymer clay focal piece and surrounded it with many little bulls-eye canes around the edge. then it went through the multi-step process of baking, sanding, buffing and then a protective coating was added. finally, for the finishing touch to the necklace, kate added several beautiful, sparkly czech crystals to the antiqued chain!!! wow.....it's an absolute beauty!!!
i am SO honored to own this masterpiece, kate......thank so you very much!!!
congrats on 200 posts.....here's to many happy posts ahead, my friend!!

please visit kate and see her beautiful artwork here!
