Description

This piece was shortlisted in the top 30 of the 2008 Crative Beading Design Awards. It came to me one afternoon, and I did not rest until it was made in the same afternoon! The colour scheme is based on autumn, namely the colours the Autumn Witch in a series I read as a child (Enchantica) wears. I thought they were an unusual yet striking combination, and so I have always liked this colour combination. Being autumn I surrounded the offset flower with red/orange leaves, as that is what I often associate with autumn, despite not living near any deciduous trees that turn orange!

Materials

16g and 26g red enamelled copper wire; 14mm hearts, heliotrope; 10mm hearts, topaz AB, Siam AB and helitrope; 6mm rivolis, siam; 4mm bicones assorted colours; beading thread.
