Wire Trees, Metal Birds and Glitzy Pendants

[yourlibrarian]

The wire tree over the shell pendant was a great look, in part because it cut down the iridescence of the backing. I decided to go with some soft pale blue stone, and then copper birds to match the wire tree. I also added in some faceted fire polish coins to echo the light-catching of the pendant.

Went simple with this one, as the disc was already so bold I figured a clear bead pattern was the best pairing for it.

I love the tree on the shell, that's stunning! The little birds are perfect for it.

There's a very appealing simplicity to the second one that works beautifully. Classy.

Oh, very nice, both of them. I think you are right on with the simplicity of the clear one. And the tree with birds is a delight. You chose beads and put them together in satisfying rhythms of color and shape.

The wire tree is stunning, I love the twists in the trunk. And the beads match the theme of the necklace beautifully.

Yes, it was a great find, usually wire wraps are merely in a decorative rather than pictoral style. Definitely gave me something to work with 🙂
