One thing I like with the silk cord is also that the volume means it can fill out gaps where needed and be flattened where that's needed.<br /><br />I'll see when I get around to finish it so I can show the final result.

Your beads look like they were growing. I like the luxurious combination of blue shimmering silk and coppery metal.MilkaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
