A Trip to Downtown LA
Yesterday, I ventured out to the Fashion District with a friend of mine. In particular, we explored the beads section, mainly on Maple Street. We went to a variety of shops that carried all sorts of supplies in making jewelry. We found an array of different beads, from glass to semi precious stones. We found spools of chains, suede cords, and the like. It was like a huge candy factory for jewelry and accessory crafters. At times it was a bit overwhelming, but my fascination of the endless rows of beads and all things associated with jewelry making beat out my discomfort.
I picked up extra pliers and E6000 glue. I also purchased suede cord, key charms, and feathers pictured above.
The end result was this:
Very simplistic, but I enjoy the minimalistic aspect of this piece. This necklace embodies the naturalistic style I favor. I hope to make similar pieces soon.
