Unfortunately I had to wait weeks and weeks for my beautiful beads from Gillygembeads and then weeks and weeks when it finally got to me,none of the Gillys fault I have to add.
In my parcel, the Angel was already made that gilly sent me,I had lovely Semi precious Stone chips,the 4 flower connectors the Gold plated hearts and some tiny seed beads, you can see these on the loop of the angel.
I decided to hand wire wrap with gold wire that I had aged, I added 24K Gold plated beads and finally I loosely wrapped with pure Copper entwined with 24K Gold plated beads.
I hung the fairy on the heart which I aged, with a small copper Key ring attachment, so she can be removed, if you wanted to wear the necklace part on its own.
This has mixed Semi precious stone chips,again I hand wire wrapped gold wire and aged it.
Then as before I loosely wrapped Pure Copper entwined with the lovely 24K gold beads
I made a Pure copper hook and lightly hammered it and added the tiny gold plated heart,
I loved making her, The Autumn Fairy is a real statement piece and of course she can be easily removed to leave the Necklace on it's own.
I hope you like what I have made Gilly, thank you I had great fun making her.

Very pretty! You did a lovely job!
Thank you, it took ages to do all the coiling.
pity the photography didn't go as well,got a new photo studio,needs practise lol.
Great piece!
This is a really pretty design. Your wire wrapping is very cool. Nicely done!
With all that is going on with your partner, you are lucky to have gotten your soup. A big KUDOS to her!! I bet you were dying of anticipation. I love the angel and you did a great job. Good luck the new photo studio. I don't do photos well myself. Can bead a storm but not good at taking the pics. Thanks for sharing.
Alice's Beads and Baubles-- PS not sure is you joined the link on lori's site or let her know you are done- she might put out a message so everyone (or a bunch) of others stop by to take a look.
Hi,
Thank you for your lovely comment.
Yes I dread to think what she is going thru,Gilly beads were sent way before this,the post in the UK caused it, as gilly knows.
Its very sad she was so excited, this being her 1st ever bead soup, same as me.
Little secret I am sending it to her as a Gift.
Hi Elisabeth, thank you.
