Bon Appetit! A four-course reveal!

Welcome to the 3^rd and final Bead Soup Blog Challenge Jewelry Reveal!  I hope you all haven’t gorged yourselves completely on the other two reveals – because saving this one for last will certainly be the icing on the cake!

First off, THE SOUP.   This is what I received from *Sally Bohner Anderson of Wild Sally Road:

 

A very pretty package – full of polka dots and FUN surprises!  I tried to use everything – but did have a few items left when done.  I still managed to cook up 4 designs, so no more teasing!  I call tell your mouth is watering!

This is the appetizer:  Earrings that MATCH the main course – it didn’t take long at all to come up with these once I had finished the big reveal piece.  As you can see – we’re doing seafood…well, sort of….

 

Next up – the salad – a fun bracelet full of the turquoise nuggets received from Sally, as well as a few added antique brass finish metal items of my own.   This is called ‘Bally Bronze’.  It compliments the beachy sea theme – but could be worn for any occasion or season….

And here is the MAIN COURSE.  The meat and potatoes of the reveal.  I call it “Stars of the Sea”:

The focal that Sally sent is the big silver sand dollar that is embellished with seed beads, and a lovely glass seahorse from my personal stash.  I have also used the clasp in this piece, but because it was soooo beautiful, couldn’t bring myself to hide it in the back.  It is a wonderful drusy box clasp, and it adorns the left side of the piece, while a trail of seed bead bubbles and small real shells accent the rest.  Add a Green Girl Studios starfish, as well as a Swarovski crystal one, along with the square beads from Sally’s treasures and it truly is the STARRING dish.  

And last but not least, I hope you saved room for dessert!  This was actually the FIRST thing I designed for the reveal, and I plan to keep this one to wear with practically everything!  It’s a fun, chunky chain bracelet called “Wild Summer”:

Practically everything in this bracelet but the rings, the clasp and the chain came from the stash Sally sent me. 
There.  Now that you’ve consumed that wonderful  four course feast – time to feast your eyes on the rest of the reveals!
*Some of you may have already visited Sally’s site.  Unfortunately, Sally had some sad and tragic events happen in her life recently, so she was unable to complete her part of the Bead Soup Blog Challenge.  This is a photo of what I sent her.  I hope she is able to make something beautiful with them someday:
