A happy mix of antique, vintage and new beads, mostly from Africa, with large, hinged Ethiopian cross (3 inches long). I call this style, with or without a pendant, my Bead Soup style because it uses up all the leftover bits form other projects. Note how the brick color in some of the beads provides the necessary spice from the other side of the color wheel to make the blues pop.
Designer: Penelope Diamanti
All my work is strung on soft flexible cable wire. I prefer the Flex-Rite brand.

Just like in the Beadazzled stores, I hope you'll shop, but I'm also offering my work for your inspiration.
