J Yee smart chick says:Oohh, thank you Sarah, Alice, Martha, Sue, Diane and Gina –
I was torn between kinds of purples to use with the lovely green lotus pendant, and chose the cooler purples here – am gonna do one with warmer purples, like the gold lustered amethyst seed beads…
Diane, your pics of your necklace with the green lotus pendant are soooo fabulous, it came out beautifully, LOVE the teardrop pearls in it – and what color are the pearls, by the way? and the other gemstones you have in the necklace? thanks so much for sharing these pics of the necklace, it is really gorgeous, and motivates me to get one of these pendants and make a necklace too!!

Diane Cauley says:Thank you Joyce
The pearls are the large green iris dancing drops in the pick, the green garnet also in the pick, and the roundells are the ‘antique lace’ czech roundells also from LB.
I would love love love to see your take on the pendant! It’s always fun to see how different designs turn out even with the same components

J Yee smart chick says:Thank you Janet, Diane and Frida -
Diane, thank you for describing the beads in your beautiful necklace, I almost feel like Kermit the frog, seeing it – I also have those lovely green iris teardrop pearls, they’re awaiting the right project – like this one… and with green garnet, and those cool antique lace czech rondelles, ahhh!! Yep, I agree, am working on more Picks with those lotus pendants, one with the purple haze one, trying it out with new jade and peace jade…
