The challenge for me were those tiny multi colored disk beads. So I began to lay things out
Designs started formulating. I wanted a long Necklace and found this beautiful focal bead that matched all that glass. Well I needed a tassel and the orange tear drops would work.Might also make a couple of pair of earrings from those teardrops.
