Earthenwood Design Team






Hello all! I was lucky enough to be chosen for the March Earthenwood Design Team! I TRULY was ecstatic!! Melanie sent me a GORGEOUS resin key......oh heavens it is beautiful! It has a blue/purple shimmery glow about it! They can be found at Melanie's Big Cartel Shop, Earthenoxide.

The one I received has a leaf and recycled printed paper in the resin! Stunning! I knew when I saw it I want it to hang from one of my sparkly wheel toggle clasps.....I had been wondering what they would look like just hanging from a chain in front. I then added great peanut seed beads, weaved in and out of the antiqued brass chain. At first I was going to hang the key from the sparkly wheel with an antiqued brass jumpring, but decided to use the same seed beads in the wheel and weave it into the design.....I really liked that! Turned out better!

A HUGE "Thank you" to Melanie! I LOVE this necklace and hope to have it listed in the SHOP soon!

Very pretty -- using the clasp in front as a featured part of the design was a great touch. Something that pretty ought to always be front & center!

These are so great, Leslie. I love your beaded closure. It's a prominent design element that's functional ... how can you beat that?!
