Bead Partner with Vintaj Natural Brass!!

One of the things I have been working on for a couple of months now is my Bead Partnership with Vintaj. I was invited to participate in the Weeping Willow Theme, and I have to say I don't think they could have chosen a better theme to offer me!! The colour palette is perfectly suited to me and the weeping willow tree one of my faves!
 So I worked with Ella at Calico Collage to give you a selection of images that are exclusively for the Vintaj challenge. You will of course find all the pendants in my Etsy shop. They are all listed and ready to go! Just remember if you are interested in using one of these for the Vintaj Challenge, don't wait too long to order as they are shipped from Canada and may take a bit longer.
Here is one necklace I have made so far using one of the pendants from the theme. I wanted a soft elegant necklace that could be work to work or on an evening out. I wanted the focus to be on the pendant, so I pulled the colours from the image and used them in accent beads and made delicate chains of beads with chain for added solidity.
 You could do something similar or completely different with this pendant. You could purchase your own pendant like the one in the necklace Jess Italia Lincoln made for the Challenge. 
 Just don't forget to enter your creation into the challenge this month. I think it will be one of the best ever!!
 I hope to have time to create more pieces for the theme this week. There are so many inspirational pieces you can use to create your own versions of the examples assembled by the amazing designers at Vintaj!! Check out the Vintaj Blog for the latest post!!
Don't forget to grab your Weeping Willow Pendants in my shop!!

Oh if I had the funds I would so get one of these pendants because I have a connection with the willow ever since I was a little girl. I even have one in my yard!

Congratulations Miss Marie! It is an honor to partner with Vintaj for sure. My own Storybook theme was just last year at this time and it was a wonderful experience. May you make many new friends and create more gorgeousness! Enjoy the day. Erin
