Well I succeded in getting the cabs secured and started on her sari. You can see the center cab here, it will actually be a pendant for one of her necklaces once I get the rest of her body covered in beads.
Here's a side view of the beading around her face and neck. The pink is the closest I had to skin tone so it's going to work. The black area is her hair and the gold will be her crown.
Heres a good view of her crown base. Somehow I'm going to have to give it height. I haven't figured it out yet but I'm not going to sweat it either. I trust some form of divine inspiration will occur to me when I get there! *grin*
Eric and I are going out next Saturday - WITHOUT kids! This will be the first time in like 5 years!
He has a work-related dinner at a local steak house and I'm so excited!
Because we've never gone out with other adults!
So of course I had to make some jewelry for this occasion!
I actually made this necklace last month but it was missing something. So I found this great silver plated stamping to create a pendant for it. I 'll be working on that tonight once the kidlet is in bed.
I'll add updated pictures once I finish it!
Then I fixed up these earrings to go with the necklace. Yes they're bold, but then this would be and acceptable event to wear such bold jewelry and you know how much I want to wear bold jewelry!
(Is it just me or do these earrings resemble some fancy bellydancer top with fringe?)
Yes, I'm asking if the earrings, hanging side by side, look like decorated boobs.
Well I think they do and it makes me laugh!
This is the last piece, a charm bracelet, I love how they feel and I was really excited whin I figured out how to photograph them - on an upside down wineglass.Charm bracelets never look right just lying on the backdrop or draped over a seashell. The wine glass lets the charms hang freely, like they would on your hand!
Well it's time to put the kidlet in bed. She HATES winter btw, or so she's told me 10 times in the last 15 minutes...
Me too, kiddo!

Lakshmi looks like she's off to a great start! I can't wait to see her done. Have fun at dinner. Nights out with adults are a rare treat!
Thanks! I'll keep updating as I make progress on her. In a way thinking people are waiting to see keeps me working!
