Beautiful pieces. I think my favorite was the pussy willow necklace.
ReplyDeleteI love your designs and how you've used so many techniques! I especially love the wind chimes necklace (those daggers!) and the pussy willow necklace. Pussy willows always seemed to magical to me when I was a kid! Still do!
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, Awesome is how I would describe all of your designs. Cherry blossoms and pussy willows are definitely signs of spring. Flower Garden is my favorite but Cherry Blossoms is a very close second. You did a fabulous job with this challenge.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and inspiring designs, Chris! You made Spring come to life and jump off of the page. Cherry Blossoms is my favorite. I like them all. Thanks for being in the hop!
ReplyDeleteThank you for giving me even more reason to love spring!
