The most lovely Sally Russick is hosting her second ornament swap and today is the reveal! I had fun doing it last year, so I wanted to do it again this year! My partner is probably one of the most positive, lovely ladies I have ever met - Kristin Stevens. I had the pleasure of meeting her at Bead Fest Philly this year (and her daughter too) and I was very glad I ended up being her partner! Here's what I made Kristin:
I'm kind of stuck on these vintage chandellier parts I have, and wanted to use one of them. And I really love the shimmery effects of the pixie dust on white glass, and I really love the baroque shape of the beads! I made the hanger myself, too!
And here's what Kristin made me:
If you know Kristen, then you know she does wonders with beads! Her little beaded beads so cute, and this ornament is so delicate - it has a prominent spot on my tree!
Thank you Sally for hosting another fun swap! Here's a list of all the participants, so you can drool over their ornaments too!

The ornament you received from Kristen is beautiful and so very Kristen like. I have not met her in person yet, but we do talk often on the phone and she is a very lovely person. The ornament you sent to her is beautiful also.
Merry Christmas,
Therese
And I just love your icicles!!! Very cool (no pun intended). I was at an antique store a few weeks ago and they had the chandelier pieces like that. I was going to get them but the drill hole wasn;t all the way through and it stopped me from getting them. I just might go back though.....
And Kristens ornament is fun and whimsical, and very unique--just right for Christmas.
The ornament that Kristin made for you is lovely, the beaded beads are beautiful.
Thank you for participating again this year! Have a very Merry Christmas!!!
The crystal on the ornament you sent will sparkle so nicley on a tree with lights!
Happy Holidays
