sparkle – CCGlassArt

I have had this amazingly beautiful tangerine colored glass in my collection for ages but never used it before.

I’ve been waiting for just the right inspiration to strike to use it (sometimes these things take a long time :-D). Once the sunny, hot weather hit that bold glass caught my eye and I instantly new what I wanted to do with it.

Combining it with shimmery goldstone frit was a last minute addition but I love the juicy orange color with the intense sparkle goldstone has. A classic summer look!

It all started with a similar set of beads I made out of EDP. I had so much fun making that set I knew I’d have to create another, but this time in a different color.

I’m such a sucker for anything shimmery or sparkly, so when I get to use pearly luster dust on every bead I am in heaven!

These beads are of a very nice medium size (13mm x 15mm) making them extremely versatile for use in either a necklace, bracelet or drop earrings. You can even make a matching 3 piece jewelry set by adding your own additional beads and findings. So many choices! 😀
