✿❀  Bead Hoarders Blog Hop July 20th ✿❀ 

 
Yeaahh! It’s time to start hopping …
In my former posting you saw the picture of my little treasury.
Some beads that I really really love are  the silver beads I bought in Ethiopia
in 2010. They were for about 3 years in a box, waiting for me…  Looking at
them brings back memories of the hard working people and strong women
we saw during the amazing journey we made from North to South in
that very special country!  Another (completely different) subject is
my love for pearls! Since my childhood, I’m so very fond
of them when I saw my mom wearing these beauties.
They are very often on my shopping list…

In this necklace I worked with
cross pearls, some smaller grey pearls and Onyx.  I
thought that would going so well with the greyish Sari Silk.
 
 
I have been looking at my Silver treasuries for a long  time and cherished
all the  pearls♥. My necklace tells the story of a great journey and a love
that started in the past but still lasts… Swarovski and Sari Silk give the
finishing touch to my absolute favourites!
 
 
The silver components for the earrings were in my 'secret box' for at least
five years, and make a nice match with the transparent Swarovski!
 
 
 
Lori, you’re such a great hostess. Thank you so much and take good care of yourself!
I wish you all the best! Stay healthy...
