So far, I have been doing pretty well about coming up with a design for the wonderful inspirational pictures and paintings that Art Bead Scene puts up every month. Some months are a definite challenge and this month's fit into that category.
I enjoy working with the darker colors but I just didn't have anything that seemed to suit, That is until I looked at one of the large hollow beads I had picked up from one of this month's sponsors, Hollowlogy. I also picked up the inspiration for this design from one of my other favorite beading blogs, Art Elements Jewelry.
All in all, I am pretty happy with this design and I will probably end up embellishing more chains in this fashion.

This necklace is a great for the inspiration! Not just the color, but the shape of the dangle.
