Ready for the ball



Ah June! Time for all kinds of lovely events -- including the Grade 12 prom.
Here is a necklace I made for my son to give to his girlfriend. Apparently, it is lame to give a corsage.
So, after a recent trip to Queen St.'s bead stores, I found all I needed to create this set-- and now it is all ready for the ball.
It features mauve fresh water pearls, sterling silver plated wire, and a real Swarovski starfish. I had a great time making it -- now let's hope they have a wonderful time at the party this coming weekend.
I am also working on a couple of secret projects for a special birthday. More on that later.

  1. You went to Queen street SANS MOI?!??!?!? I'm heart-broken and inconsolable!!! *pouts*

    The set is gorgeous, tho - I didn't know corsages were passe, LOL!!! Hard to imagine D is ready to graduate - we're not old enough to have kids that age ;)
