Phew, finally finished! The photo doesn't do the colors justice really, it's such a bright and sparkly necklace! The Lapiz lazuli clasp was my most favourite piece in the goodies Dora sent . Was always wanting to make a friform beaded necklace with all those lovely beads that my previous Swap partners had sent , and this clasp along with the blue Czech beads Dora sent just seemed perfect. 

Another piece that I instantly fell in love with is the traditional Croatian filigree bead. Always admiring the folk costumes around the world, this beauty needed to be showcased in the same traditional  style . So I added some beaded beads in matching colors and created this one.

As always, this year too my endeavour has been to learn something new. Ever since I started taking part in the Bead Peeps Swap and Hop, I have made a self rule to make something I havent tried before. Be it a technique in Bead work or an accessory. Just like new partners in this challenge, I have been blessed to get wonderful bead from Bead artists from all around the World . This year too I had  an amazing partner Trogdora Orensik  - who is also the Grand Prize winner of last years Swap. . My happiness knew no bounds when I got the lovely collection of beads she sent me.I enjoyed working on these beautiful beads and I hope I can create  more from  the lovely goodies she  has sent me . 
As always.I come away from this Swap exploring and learning more of the wonderful Bead world out there. 

Hope to see you soon with some new project
