Amber Dreams and Into The Mystic

These beautiful necklaces have been made by my sister Angie and I'm so excited because not only did she post pictures of her beautiful work, but she also posted her sons work too. It's so nice to see other family members bead work on this blog. Seeing as how all of us sisters live a good distance away from each other it's nice to see what we are doing. If anyone knows Angie they know that red, orange, and yellow are her colors and as you can see she does a wonderful job when using them as the main colors in her bead work. Angie has named this necklace Amber Dreams and I have to agree that it is a dream to look at. I think this amber one is my favorite, of course I've always been fond of amber. She bought the lamp work beads yesterday at Art in Park in Sierra Vista, AZ made by Andy Ray who is the owner Galactic Glass Studio in Tucson, AZ http://www.galacticglass.net/index.htm. I'm thinking that we will have to go to his store when I go to visit in December.
This necklace is made out of Carnelian, Amber, Quartz, and silver findings. The center piece is Hand made Dichroic glass.

This next piece is called Into the Mystic. I like the name and I love the necklace and earring set that Angie made! Something about red and purple just works. I really like how she used both the white and red freshwater pearls in this piece, I would have never thought of doing that and now that I see how good it looks in her bead work, I might have to try it sometime. These are just beautiful and as I told ya on the phone earlier, 'Where's mine?' Great job Angie and we can't wait to see more of your work in the future. Hint, hint.

This necklace is made of Pearls and crystals with silver findings and Hand made Dichroic glass.
