I've posted this before and it was huge, so sorry if it's still huge, it was a commission, 22" necklace, all glass, weighed a ton.

Now we're back to normal, I thought I'd join in, so here's my contribution.  Martin flogged me some of the new CIM glass, so I had a play with it - elphaba and pumpkin (I think).

Blimey Jane, with all that glass I reckon that's a pretty Dangerous necklace!   ;D    Kate, your hearts are fabulous!

Here's a green set I did last night

Some fantastic green beads on here, must in particular mention Lesley's, Jane's and lush Julie's - stunning  :o

Most of these greenies are probably ending up in a silver bracelet:

Good idea Julie - we could split the proceeds! Those are stunning Clare!
Not sure if it's too late but here are the beads I have made for a commission - hopefully I will post the necklace and earrings later.....
