I didn't realize it at the time, likely because I hadn't been there in December in 20 years, but after a trip to Disneyland this past weekend, I think I was channeling Sleeping Beauty's castle in my Ice Queen necklace:
Then again, my necklace has more blue and a little less purple. What do you think?
In the meantime, the Bead Mavens have announced their next challenge, Vernal Visions, with a focus on the theme of the Spring Equinox. The entry rules have been modified compared to the previous challenge, so be sure to check out the details on the Bead Mavens Website.
I'd like to give a big thanks to all the sponsors of the Ice Queen Challenge. A special shout-out goes to Linda of BeadsForever for the choice of an item from her shop. I chose this dichroic cab called Symphony and it's as gorgeous in person as it is in the photo:
Another big shout-out goes to Tradewinds Studios, Ikandiclay, MandarinMoon, Kelly Angeley, NEDbeads, and Artbeads for their generous contributions to this challenge, as well as Cynthia Newcomer Daniel and Mikki Ferrugiaro for gift certificates to their shops.
I think your beautiful necklace is very much like Sleeping Beauty's Castle! Congrats again!
ReplyDeleteI think the castle saw your necklace and arranged its lighting accordingly! It is a gorgeous piece, and I'm glad you're enjoying your prizes.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! It's a bit of a feat to change the castle, but hey, a girl can dream! Next time, I'll make a bright orange necklace and see if the castle changes accordingly.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I'm not surprised at your success--the necklace is gorgeous!
