Proud like a Peacock
About this design:
I was so happy when I finally found 75 of those darn easter eggs so I could choose the amethyst rounds :-) I thought it would be nice to pair them with the peacock FWP. I also got to use the silver round beads that I got from the bead swap! Thanks Susan :-)
Components:
peacock FWP, Amethyst, TierraCast rhodium cones, silver claspRead the comments (or add your own)
