Frenzied Motion Challenge - Reveal also with finished goodies from the last challenge


Ok so here are my creations for the Frenzied Motion Challenge (a day late, shame on me)

I was all over the place as far as ideas...hot pink is scary!

Thankfully I had this lovely butterfly pendant in my stash




















Also while digging through said stash, I found an unopened box "The Coiling Gizmo". Had no idea when or why I got it. OMG Why have I not played with it before now I don't know. The thing is awesome.

I coiled up the seed bead mix, strung the coil on brown greek leather and used a vintage button for a clasp. Easy breezy




















I loved this single crystal point, accented it with the swarovski crystals, also from the mix



















I made a trio of memory wire bangles (also playing with memory wire for the first time, loving it!
















I love how each challenge has me trying different methods!

And here are a few more pieces from the Desert Sands Challenge

Desert Sunset (owl by Laura Mears)



















I finished a pair of earrings, started a pendant (ran out of chain for it)



































That's all for now folks!

Up next will be the Sweet Honey Challenge
