Bead Soup Reveal

Bead Soup Partiers
Welcome to the 3rd Bead Soup Blog Party!
What is a Bead Soup Blog Party?

 Each beader was paired up with another jewelry designer and tasked with sending the following:

~ A focal
~ A special clasp (not just a lobster claw)
~ Some coordinating spacers or beads

Using the focal and the clasp was mandatory, but we could use anything from our own stash to round out the rest, and choose to use the coordinating beads or not.
Here's what I made!



And here is my reveal Here is just a peak at what my partner sent me so you know what I started with.

I made quite a few items from all the stuff she sent me.

The first item was a beautiful large blue bead which I turned into a pendant. My partner also gave me the bead spacers and some of the charms on the matching charm necklace. I am so ready for summer so this is my ode to summer and the beach.


Then I tackled all those beautiful coral beads and the heart cabochon. As soon as I saw this I thought valentines but it took me a few tries to decide what to do with these. The heart was not all the way drilled through so I just wrapped some wire around both sides met at the top and added a swirl it took me much more thinking then it i did actually doing it. This one was finished on the first attempt. I picked out a cord for it but the clasp was too big so it will have to go without for today.


Then I had all those other red coral pretty beads so I added some bead caps my partner sent me and turned some into a necklace still not sure I'm totally happy with it. I had a rose charm or this entwined heart and I added the clasp my partner sent me. I have a feeling I might tweek this one a little more what do you think?


Then on to those leftover red coral beads which I added a swirl and a spacer beads I really loved those spacers she sent me.

Then I still had one more red coral bead left so I had to get adventuous and try a new tutorial I purchased a while ago and hadn't done yet. This was so easy I used larger wire 22g instead of 24g on accident but it still turned out really nice.


I think I will oxidize the whole red set but I haven't looked it up yet to make sure I won't hurt the coral beads if I do that. Anyways I ran out of time for that part. I will have to show an update when I get that done.

This was actually my first challenge or large event I have participated in online. It was really fun and I enjoyed using beads that I probably wouldn't have picked out myself. I liked the challenge of creating something new and tried to make new styles and something I had never done before. And I still have a bunch more beads and charms that she sent me that I will have to turn in to jewelry.
Make sure you visit my partner 205.  Jenny Robledo, La Dona Boutique
and see her blog. She couldn't participate today because she had to have hand surgery. Thanks for the beads partner and quick healing of that hand so you can get back to beading.

I do have to say that when I started I thought I better make something fabulous with tons of beads and very ornate and then when that wasn't working and I thought about it over night I realized I needed to stick to my more simple style and I went back to all the favorites I have online of different jewlery and realized i like simple with a little extra flair. So here is my style with new beads. Thanks Lori for having this challenge and being a great inspiration to us all.

  1. Beautiful! Love the beach themed necklace...perfect for the blue focal! I really like the wire wrapped heart too:)

  2. Hi Krista, Love what you have done -- coral is one of my most favorite materials. So many folks seem to be making multiples or pieces that can be worn in more than one way -- aren't we luck with our emarrassment of riches from our swap partners?

    I decided to start at the bottom of the list (I'm in the middle at #95). I hope you get a really good response from the swap/hop -- So much fun!

  3. I LOVE that blue pendant necklace -- that's going to be awesome in the summer. And anything red seems to fly off the shelf when I do a craft show. What you did with the pendant -- so creative. I NEVER would have thought of that -- ditto the ring. That kind of thing is SO beyond what I can do.

    I'm SO GLAD you participated -- you did a TERRIFIC job, and I hope you do it again in August!!!

  11. Love all the coral. You do great wire work!

    ReplyDelete
  12. I love the blue pendant, but the reds are so beautiful. You certainly made a great soup with so many great pieces.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I love all of your designs. The ring is my favorite!! Your wire wrapping is the best:)Love, love, love the red!

    ReplyDelete
  14. very nice - that red ring is sooo fun!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Everything you designed is beautiful. The soup is good!

    ReplyDelete
  16. You've done a really wonderful job with this challenge. That ring is amazing. But, I do agree with you that it could use some darkening up. Keep up the work!

    ReplyDelete
  17. I love what you did with the silver and red -- it really sings!! And the blue pendant is just lovely :-)

    ReplyDelete
  18. It's a very effective type of simple style - love the nautical theme in the first one :D

    ReplyDelete
  19. I definitely think that you should oxidize the pieces. I agree with you though, I have no idea what it will do to coral, but I think that oxidizing it will give it more uniformity. Do that, and then go back to see if you want to add more. The ring is gorgeous though. I'm just starting to work with wire and rings have been a real challenge for me, so thanks for the inspiration!

    ReplyDelete
  20. The blue is beautiful, and your wire work - wow.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Wow. Love the red and silver together. The ring turned out beautiful. Fine wrapping skills.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I love the simplicity and easy wearable-ness of your jewelry!

    ReplyDelete
  23. What's that saying? KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) That was the right thing to do because every piece is stunning and pops just they way they are. The ring is super cool!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Your pieces just pop off the page, I love them.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I really like the red coral necklace with the heart clasp. VERY NICE!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Pretty! I love all that wrapping - very impressive and beautiful!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Dang! You were productive! Nicely done! I adore the ring you made. Worn by an ancient queen of old or a modern day urban fashionista, your ring has universal appeal and could belong to either time and place.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Love what you have made with your beads, but I must say that the ring is awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  29. the red beads & wire wrapping are great! welcome to the Soup

    ReplyDelete
  30. Each of your pieces is lovely, but I LOVE that ring. VERY NICELY DONE!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Oh I love the wire wrapped ring. So pretty!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Sometimes simple is best. All your pieces are simple, yes. But they are also very elegant and classy. I would leave them alone. I like how you used that double heart on the side for the clasp--it works so well. The ring is simply gorgeous and I like the earrings! You did a wonderful job using your creative talents! Keep it Simple! :)

    ReplyDelete
  33. Glad you are playing along. I love what you did. Your wirework is beautiful.

    ReplyDelete
  34. awesomeness!!! Im absolutely in love with that ring!! your wire work is beautiful. Beautiful designs and that red it HOT!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Your gift with wire is astounding! Gorgeous work!

    ReplyDelete
  36. The red coral is probably died... not sure what the oxidizing will do to it... I had a bracelet and earrings lampwork plus red coral... and only tumbled the earrings they lost their shine so no longer matched the bracelet... still a pretty red but not the same red!

    Love the wire work on the red heart!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Wow you sure had time to make some awesome things. But the blue necklace just captures my attention. The blue focal looks like you are gazing into the Caribbean Sea. This is just beautiful.

    ReplyDelete
  38. You did a fabulous job on those pieces! I absolutely love the ring. Just the way it is. :) Already visited your bead soup partner, really hope her hand is healed quickly. so glad I got to visit and see your lovely pieces.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Very pretty, I really love the ring. Great job.

    ReplyDelete
  40. That ring! Your first? awesome. the necklace made me want to go sailing (not that I sail) every thing you made is beautiful.

    The beads you sent Jenny are very pretty also. Hope she is healed quickly so she can make something fab with them.

  56. great pieces! this is such an amazing event with so many beautiful pieces!

    ReplyDelete
  57. wow! great job! all the pieces are so beautifully done. the ring is just so creative.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Very pretty creations! The first necklace looks so "summer fresh" and the coral set is also very nice. I especially like the heart pendant you made.

    I would probably worry about whether the coral would be affected by LOS or similar oxidizing products too. The egg method could be a more benign option to try out. Some love it, some more or less hate it. The few times I've used it, I've been happy with the result.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Just beautiful! I am especially partial to red, and the red/silver mix pieces are what caught my eye, although the summer necklace is perfectly wonderful too!

    ReplyDelete
  60. Beautiful, great designs, reallly love the red necklace!!

    ReplyDelete
  61. LOVE LOVE LOVE the heart pendant and ring. I tend to do what you did at first but with this bead swap I just read something online the other day on Beadinmg Daily about using our own style- One of the top ladies said she was worried about competing with all this other talent and then realized she was asked to join for her own style- what fun would this be if we all did the same thing?? That is what I take away from this exchange. Your style is great! alice's beads and baubles

    ReplyDelete
  62. Love the red set, especially the ring!

    ReplyDelete
  63. Wonderful work! I especially love the red coral with intertwined hearts.... so cool!

  67. Love that blue necklace and I am totally in awe of your wire wrapping skills.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Of all the pieces, the ring is my favorite. Great job on everything. Also, thank you so much for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. So nice of you!

    ReplyDelete
  69. You did a fantastic job and I would really love to see the set oxidized, be sure to post it when you do!

    ReplyDelete
  70. That big teddy bear totally cracked me up! It's the perfect way to welcome some Soup people into your world. I love the red set, too. I think the oxidation of the silver is a great idea!!
    Jen

    ReplyDelete
  71. I am with you, I am so ready for summer and your first necklace hit the idea of summer perfectly! I love, love, love the ring. I do not have the patience to do something like that and I love seeing people who do and the wonderful things they create! Love all your pieces.

    ReplyDelete
  72. I love what you did with the ring....just beautiful. I enjoy perusing your blog, too!

    Thank you for commenting on my creation for the BSBP.

    ReplyDelete
  73. You were ambitious and created several beautiful Bead Soup pieces! I love the anchor you used in your necklace, I just love nautical themed anything..... if you see my recent blog post, I show an antique I found that has anchors on it (an antique spool cabinet). Your ring is fantastic - love that wire work. I think you should be fine to oxidize the coral, I've done it myself...and I think you'll love the contrast it will bring out in the wire. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  74. Wow, you are clever with wire. That ring is super pretty!

    ReplyDelete
  75. Love the ring - Red is my Favorite!!! I would wear it in a heartbeat. Loved the top necklace as well. You did a great job with all your pieces.

    ReplyDelete
  76. I am still making my way through all the blogs, I know it is late, but better late than never. All your pieces are wonderful, but I love this ring. You should write up a tutorial for that. So cool. And if you are up for another challenge, come visit my blog

  77. Still limping along and so glad I came by- I love your wire wrapping on the ring. The coral beads are gorgeous with sliver and that simple design- really makes you look at the wonderful clasp too. Very nice soup. It is nice to still have some inspiration out there I haven't gotten to yet.
