Copper Component Blog Hop!

In the midst of winter, I’ve been transported back to a sunny summer’s day.  How did I get so lucky?  I jumped at Kristi Bowman’s challenge and joined her Copper Component Blog Hop!  For Kristi’s blog hop, the participants chose to work with either her sea-inspired Urchin or Ammonite components.  Kristi’s copper clay components are shaped and molded by hand and then fired – I love their rustic quality.
For my bracelet, I chose a handful of lampwork beads in colors of the sand and surf.  A few of the beads are by Moon Stumpp, one from a set I’ve held on to for years…it was featured in SBS Wire in 2009 (yes, that WAS a long time ago!).  To complement the seaside theme, I also added soft-colored Keshi pearls.
Stop by and see what the other participants have created – bet you’ll stay warm and you’ll be dreaming of summer time just like me!
