Polly's Pick, Glass & Crystal
Kudos to Mary's sister Kathryn for our discovery of this adorable design! According to Mary, "I have had these beads my sister gave me for a very long time and the idea in my head for an even longer time. It was at her urging that I complete my idea and send it into the contest."
This cheerful design is created from Czech glass ladybug beads and CRYSTALLIZED™ – Swarovski Elements (crystal bicones and a light siam crystal butterfly). The dotted flower-end sterling head pins add to the garden/park theme and sterling footage chain holds it all together with a sterling lobster clasp.
Polly’s Picks are designs our editor especially likes despite the fact that they did not win a formal prize. These designs are often simple, practical and/or whimsical examples of how to use Rings & Things components well.
