Job's Tears

Sorry folks, it sure has been a while. My dog had to get surgery and between that and my regular old day job I just haven't had too much time to spend on my projects.  I have been able to complete a pink purse- an artistic piece with a woman's profile appliqued to the front.  I haven't put it online for sale yet, but I took some photos.  I also finished my beautiful pink duffle bag.  I must say I like this one and want to keep it for myself.  It is a lovely pink material on the outside, with a dark grey inner lining.  There is a hidden zipper pocket inside.  The top is draw string for easy access, I was thinking for sports gear.  The large beads are also handmade.  They are black polymer clay with a special shiny coating on the outside.  This one will go for sale online as well after I figure out the price.

I refinished my Job's Tears necklace today and made a matching pair of earrings.  I really like these.  I picked the Job's Tears seeds on a hike off of the Pali Highway on Oahu, Hawaii.  The seeds can be used without any preparation.  I alternated light gray Job's Tears with shiny white plastic beads.  The clasp is a barrel screw clasp.  The dangly earrings are also made of Job's Tears and the small, shiny, white beads.
