The works aren't awfully fugly, though the photography surely is; but this out-of-focus shot is what I've got, so it will have to do.
I don't actually recall these pieces—a couple of beadcurtain strands, a pair of charms? and 3 pairs of earrings made with what looks like leftover guild christmas beads. Pretty certain I made the earrings,[1] and equally so that I didn't make the strung pieces.
If I had to guess, my theory is that my sister and sister-in-law, and assorted nieces came to visit after xmas, and we had a stringing party. At any rate, they all look so bright and cheerful they seem entirely appropriate to usher in the holiday season.
[1]They're very similar to some I made for myself, which unfortunately I dropped and broke before I photographed. C'est la vie.
