100 Day Challenge: Day 74. White glass and blue stone necklace.

Sometimes I have beads in my stash for so long that I no longer remember where I bought them.  These white beads are one of those items.  They’re glass, and in a funky shape that looks a bit like they’re random chips when they are strung together.  The strand had three sizes of these beads, so I strung them so they graduate from smallest in the back to largest in the front of the necklace.  I paired them with some 6mm blue stones that I can’t identify.  Whatever they are, they have a nice, organic look to them and go well with the white chip-style beads.

100 Day Challenge: Day 55. White glass bracelet.

This bracelet’s beads came from a wholesaler that no longer sells many beads, unfortunately.  It was like a candy store for me before, but they’ve moved away from beading and into more scrapbooking and card-making supplies.  Too bad!

The speckled white beads were part of a larger set, the rest of which were used ages ago in another project.  The plain white rounds almost look like milk, they’re slightly translucent.  It’s nice to have neutral pieces, and this will go with almost anything.  The magnetic clasp is VERY strong, and I like to use magnets when I can for bracelets so they’re easier to put on.  The challenge, of course, is getting them connected while they stick to my pliers!
