Bead Soup Blog Party Reveal!
I have edited my post to show what I received from my blog partner Lisa Boucher first. It is a mix of her handmade ceramic beads and various glass and seed beads. They have a great fall theme.
Are you ready? Here is the necklace I created with the beads from my blog soup partner Lisa Boucher. She makes ceramic beads. Her blog: http://lisasclayhappening.blogspot.com Also check out her etsy shop: http://etsy.com/shop/clayworksnh. I like the organic style of her beads.
The necklace I made is two strands. I decided to put the toggle in the front, because I did not want to hide it in the back. It will be great for fall. I hope you enjoy.

Nice Laurie - Love how you put them all together and the use of the toggle in the front!
Beautiful execution. You really showcased both pieces to perfection!
Beautiful Laurie, I love the way you used the toggle with the pendant to make the focal piece.

Lovely beads! And the necklace you made is beautiful!
Love your piece !! love it with the toggle in the front! I did the same thing!!! your work is wonderful and I am thrilled to meet you!!!
That turned out so pretty. I love the way you used the focal and clasp. Very pretty colors, too.
Beautiful work. I love the way you've combined all the elements.
Wow, you had some really beautiful beads to work with!
Love what you did with your bead soup! :)
That looks really pretty! Should be a great fall necklace! I often put the toggle at the front or side.. why have a gorgeous toggle if you hide it at the back... and it's so much easier to do up at the front!
Hi Laurie, I was the recipient of Lisa's talents and generosity in the last blog hop. She's a Jewel! You did a beautiful job of pulling it all together. We’re all being pushed outside our comfort zones — with amazing results!
Enjoy the hop,
Emanda

Cool, cool, COOL! Those colors are tough and you made them sing!

Love, Lori
this is beautiful! nice job!
very mother nature-esque! I really like how the pendant is the centre of attention
So creative - I LOVE the colors - great design!
I am a huge fan of Lisa's beads, and you did a fabulous job of highlighting them in your beautiful necklace! I also like to put toggles in front - especially when they are too beautiful to hide! Great job! :)
Beautiful necklace! The colors are great and your design is gorgeous!
That focal is truly unique. What a gorgeous necklace.
Very, very nice and those ceramic beads are fabulous. Nice design.
Wonderful! You have created a terrific piece of wearable art. I like your use of color and texture. Thank you for sharing your artistic process along the way. Cheers!

Fabulous necklace. Yes, the clasp deserves to be in the front with the focal. Love how you pulled all the colours together.
Beautiful job, perfect placement of the toggle.
Love how you assembled the gorgeous focal and toggle in the front. They deserve to be showcased. The entire thing is stunning.
That's just beautiful. Love the toggle in the front and how lucky you were to have Lisa's gorgeous ceramics to work with. She is my new favorite vendor and I used one of her pendants in my soup creations LOL!
Beautiful necklace - you received a gorgeous soup and did a wonderful job.
Very pretty piece!
Those beads are so lovely! I love the design you chose to make with it! Beautiful!
Great way to use the toggle. Your piece is Soup-er Cool and Artsy! So well designed it all works so harmoniously.
Love the design and perfect for fall! Really well done!
Julie and Andrea
I love the design, The clasp together with the focal in the front is genius. Love it!
Lovely job - and good work putting the cool clasp in front instead of hiding it in back!
I really like that you put the pretty toggle at the front so that it's not hidden. Great idea! As well, the rest of your necklace is beautifully executed to not draw too much attention away from the focal and clasp. Well done!
very pretty, I would love to see it worn
Very pretty autumn necklace! I like how you made the clasp part of the focal so to speak. Great job!
Great necklace! I like the toggle & pendant together - makes for a lovely focal!
Those ceramics she sent are gorgeous. I think your necklace suits them well. Lovely work!
Lisa sent you a great focal! I wish I could touch it!
Ambra
That's really great. I love Lisa's work and the way you used both the clasp and the focal really sets it off.
