Here's one that's been waiting for its time to shine!
This fun wine-themed necklace here was inspired by the combination of the cluster of grape beads and the cork. They just seemed so right for each other! However, together they didn't make a complete piece of jewelry.

As regular readers know, I'm a bargain-hunter and on a budget, so I couldn't just buy a bunch of supplies all at once and experiment like crazy. I had to wait for each new material, and plan the necklace piecemeal. In the end, serendipity brought everything to me. See how long it took me to assemble everything!
Gold colored chain --- acquired in thrift store June 2013
Shiny glass bead --- acquired in hobby shop March 2013
Bright copper wire --- acquired in 2012 and woven April 2013
Old wine cork --- acquired from mother late 2012
Cluster of beads --- acquired in a garage sale summer of 2011
Funny thing is, I'm still not done! (Observe the loose wire hanging from the VK weave!) A lot of my pieces come together slowly like this, but this one takes the cake for longest incubation time.
Future blog(s) to come on this necklace!
