Now I have more "blocky" colours I should probably give it another go, but not for a while as I just found the whole process far too frustrating.<br /><br />I've finally got myself a silver necklace, currently it's got Naughty Dragon sitting on it but one day I'm going to attempt something with all those zodiac stars I have... so many ideas so little time!<br /><br />Mars xx<br /><br />Marshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-47667780752843101052014-03-17T12:15:12.089+00:002014-03-17T12:15:12.089+00:00I could do with dipping into your bead box!

It's hard to tell from pictures the exact shades but could you do like an ombre necklace with these?<br /><br />I'm publishing a couple of fantasy necklace articles this week and no matter how much I try, I can't manage a really good ombre necklace :( I've actually tried one with the pink versions of these stones but I don't have the right variation in colour :(<br /><br />Everytime I see your African Amethysts do I get jealous! <3<br /><br />Victoriahttp://www.endangeredtrolls.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-58727112433184389392014-03-13T23:52:32.968+00:002014-03-13T23:52:32.968+00:00Thanks Tracy.

Another make and break person :) <br /><br />My main exception is I usually have some kind of amber bracelet made up at any given time but I do change it around, currently it's the amber and amethyst version from the blog!<br /><br />I know what you mean about Winter, I'm currently really enjoying the bit of sun we're having in the UK, it's not that warm but it's definitely nice and bright. I have tomorrow off work so I'm hoping it stays that way so we can enjoy it :)<br /><br />Mars xx<br /><br />Marshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211092166880573199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1835147532569240962.post-81781478079145939182014-03-13T22:18:21.363+00:002014-03-13T22:18:21.363+00:00Love the Wisdom in your 2014 version! That and the...Love the Wisdom in your 2014 version! That and the stars do an excellent job of tying the silvers to the stones :)<br /><br />I thought I'd be a permanent maker, but I've turned into more of a make and break-er over the last six months or so. Even the one permanent bracelet that I had has been apart more than it has been together as I keep "borrowing" beads from it to use in my temporary combinations. But, like you, I do keep pictures of the combinations that I like if I wanted to put them back together again in the future. So far, my Winter blues/whites is the only one I have recreated one year to the next and this year I didn't have it together nearly as long as I thought I would (perhaps because I tired of Winter much earlier this year :D).
