Kate did it says:Oooooh! I love this. I am a fan of rust shades, but I really only use them sparingly. This is inspiration to maybe go for a little more! Well done!

Melody F says:Thanks, fellow beaders. The Lipstick Ranch Jagged Heart, and Star Goddess persuaded me to venture into unknown territory. Now I’ve ordered them, and the sun pendant. They are so big that they may end up in a hang8ng. Maybe a mobile.

Mary - Sweet Chick says:These rich, deep rusts are so gorgeous!
Congrats!
I’ve struggled with the size of Lipstick ranch pieces as well. Discovered they work well as focals for the extra long necklaces that are so popular right now. Embellish them a bit, use instead of a tassel on mala type designs or simply hang on a long chain… Good luck with your new venture!
