Play on Coils
This happens when one is bored and has nothing better in mind! I had some coils lying around and started pulling them open and realized that the pulling increased their strength. Floppy to start with, now they were rigid. Okay, so I decided to bead them up with these very irregular orange mother of pearl beads. To work them together as a whole I used tigertail left over from a while ago (I do not use it any more) to complete the design. Amazingly, it looks stunning with an off the shoulder dress. Sorry for the picture quality!
