My necklace

Here is what I was able to create with my wonderful Bead Soup. I wore it to school today and I received four compliments at various times during the day.~smile~ I used the focal backwards, decided the "wisdom" word would be my secret, I will wear it inward.... I used beads from many thrifted necklaces, love finding necklaces and making new creations with them.

    I love the color combination you used in your necklace and the thought of wearing the words inward.

    Oh, what a wise necklace! Perhaps it´s better to hide your wisdom, at least most of the time, because the world around you is not always so wise. :D

    I like the idea of wearing the wisdom inward, because that's where we carry our wisdom, after all. You found such pretty colors to compliment the pendant, too.

    Clever repurposing of old necklaces. The beads combine well with your soup. It must be fun to wear the necklace knowing you have the secret wisdom!

    Beautiful necklace! I also love to use elements of other jewelry in my creations, sometimes we can find great stuff in otherwise not-so-great pieces. Good job!

    It is a simple design but it makes a very beautful necklace. The colours are very well balanced and it was a good idea to put the word inwards. Have a nice Sunday!
