Our kits contained really beautiful beads and a mystery component.
I made more components to mix with them. Various gauges of soldered and hammered copper jump rings, headpins and wire. I kept the firescale patina as is. I think it gives the pieces nice dimension.
Then I tossed it around on my bead board and came up with this bracelet and earrings...

I really love the way it came out! Thanks Andrew for hosting. This was a lovely mix of beads to work with.
