    I had a look around in her etsy shop and it is really difficult to decide which one would be my favorites:

    I really like the fall bead set

    But also the autumn ones or the sea green are stunning!

  13. I couldn't find the name of the necklace I like best, but the one I like is on the 7th page. Above the picture it says Ceramic Bead Necklace, Handmade in South Africa. Different shades and shapes of brown, and earth tones. It really caught my eye as I was looking through the photographs.

    I can't remember what email I use on this site, so my main email is sharbogast@hotmail.com That's the one I check at least once a day, anyway.. heh

    Love your site, and thank you SO much for teaching me how to make all these wonderful techniques.

    There are TOO many to choose one. But if I have to, the first that really caught my eye was the Heart, Heart Pendant, ceramic & handmade. The heart pendant has a decal of what looks like the side view of a pansy which is one of my favorite flowers. But I also liked the collections that were watermelon-ish, another favorite.
