oh wow, you are so talented. I love that necklace.
I followed you over here from Lady Bloggers Society. Thought I'd pop in and say hi. Always nice to meet other fellow bloggers.
Now following you, so I'll be back!
Have a great day!

Thank you Crystal & Unknown (makes me smile just to say that).

I SO want to be that kind of crafty! Alas, it may never be! But that's a gorgeous necklace!

Happy SITS Saturday!

Hey there!

Thank you Jewelknits, with a name like that, though it sounds like you do pretty well creating with knitting, though.

Thanks Alex, I love the reviews on your site. I watch almost all of these shows (so sad about Heroes) & have seen many of these films.

Hello from Lady Society. Hope your day is good.

Very beautiful piece! I love how unique it looks and how it's not the same on both sides. Very cool.
