| Znetshows beads received by BayMoonDesign |
Welcome to a Znetshows sea glass challenge blog hop. The theme is “Summer Days and Nights”. The challenge as Znetshows designers was to make at least one daytime (casual) set and one nighttime (dressy) set with the sea glass beads we received.

I don't know about you, but I love the sand dollar beads!
The graduation party was a lot of fun. It was great seeing lots of relatives and friends. The weather was magnificent. The location of the party on the Severn River in Maryland was perfect for a late Spring day.
The food was fabulous! One of my favorite treats there were chocolate graduation caps and cupcakes. What a great idea!
My next event that calls for some special jewelry is an evening wedding.

I love how your beautiful handmade clasps in the graduation set echo the gold swirls in the blue beads! I also don't think I have seen those little concave discs in before, and I love how you used them in the earrings. The wedding set is very elegant!
ReplyDeleteYour pieces are so pretty! I love the fact that you made and wore them for actual events! I bet they looked stunning on you.
ReplyDeleteI love how you layered the pieces for your day set and your night set was so elegant. It was cool that you had a deadline and a place to wear them.
ReplyDeleteI love that we both chose evening weddings for our night time themes - and yet our pieces are a different as NIGHT AND DAY! LOL! Cute daytime pieces, too.
ReplyDeleteBoth sets are perfect! I love how you made them around events you were attending. I might have to try that for my next design as it would give me a different focus.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty creations...I bet you got tons of compliments on the pieces you wore to your cousins graduation. And your evening wear..wow..loving the black and lavender together, its such a rich combination!
ReplyDeleteI love the evening designs!
ReplyDeleteThese are so lovely Kathy, you really captured the spirit of the sea, especially in that first set, nice job!
ReplyDeletewhat elegant designs! I just love your evening set - and would wear those often!
ReplyDeleteThe sand dollar set is beautiful- I imagine you'll be wearing this ( and receiving compliments) often! I am in love with the evening earrings.So very pretty
ReplyDeleteChristie
Isn't it great to be able to design your own things to fit the events in your life? Great inspiration and very lovely results!
ReplyDeletelove that first set, it's so pretty and girlie girl! Great work.
ReplyDeleteI love that you had specific events in mind for your designs. I adore the sand dollar set, and I'll bet you get many, many compliments on every piece!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, I agree that the sand dollars were fun to use. The graduation set is my favorite. I choose aqua, turquoise,or teal beads most often. They look wonderful with the white. I haven't seen the small concave rounds before. Now I have another new beads that I need to buy.lol
ReplyDeleteBoth sets are lovely! Love the white and aqua blue - very summery, and the black and lavender look great together!
ReplyDeleteYou really nailed the Summer mood for these sets, Kathy! My favorite is the aqua and white. I like the handmade clasps also!
