Cruise Ship Tango!

by Akeisha Melfort

This design was very organic from the start and so, was very fun to make! I used chipped glass in lemon yellow, acrylic apple green round beads and plated silver metal to give the overall design a cruise ship quenching (cool) effect.

I wirewrapped each of the acrylic beads to lend a bit of elegance to the material and overall design. The number of acrylic beads helped bring about a more "full-skirts" kind of effect.

I saw these yellow beads in the beadstore and couldn't resist their potential!

Thanks everyone :-)
