Help! I Need Somebody

- not just anybody! Yesterday I was at Michael's shopping for supplies to make Dorset Buttons when I ran across this fabulous bead. I know - it's a really crappy photo and for that I apologize. But - I couldn't leave it there. It's fabulous. It's got a mother of pearl background with a real pale green. Then there are blue flowers and blue dots. It's stunning really. Here's where the help comes in. I'm not a jewelry maker. I've tried making beaded stitch markers and if you've been unlucky enough to receive any of them - you know I suck at it. But this bead is begging to be a necklace. Just a simple something with maybe an additional green or blue bead at the top. I took a second crappy photo with a quarter for scale. Funny thing is - I don't really wear large chunky jewelry. But this screamed necklace so loudly at me that I dropped it into my basket. So - does anyone reading make jewelry? Would you be willing to make this into a necklace for me? If so leave a comment with a way for me to reach you and we can work out details via email. Thank you (in advance).

  1. Well, I have been known to make a fair amount of jewelry in my time. I am sure with a bit of back and forth on what you are envisioning we could come up with something.

  6. In case you need someone local, there's a jewelry-maker at knit-night. She started going during my break. She had some of her stuff out last Wed before you got there, so you might not have seen any of it. She made L's granddaughter some custom 24K gold earrings. F. has her contact info.
