Sakura

Just finished this morning .... Sakura (Cherry Blossoms)

Made as part of a "Sakura" themed YOJ Challenge on the Beading Forum. I'm really happy with how this turned out, especially since it was my first try at making the tiny Cherry Blossoms. The gorgeous focal is, of course, a Peruzi creation. The softness of the colours in this focal worked perfectly with my little Cherry Blossoms.


The necklace is a matt black seedie peyote rope with soft pink drop embellishments, and finished off with Black Onyx, Swarovski Crystals and Sterling Silver.



 





Note: the tutorial I used for the Cherry Blossoms is this one ... really easy once you get into the swing of it :)

Really beautiful! I love that although cherry blossoms seem like springtime to me, this could be a winter necklace with ease.
