The FamiLee Jewels

I picked up these Greek ceramic washers at an Innovative bead expo last Spring. I loved the colors and had to have them. It was hard to choose there were so many options....even a bright red and orange mottled group called Doritos!

They have been sitting on a shelf since May. I grabbed them Friday night and decided to work them up. They have large holes and threaded with only a little difficulty over doubled silk cord. I must try this again with fine leather. The blues are called Aegean Sea. They are paired with pewter. The browns are called Tobacco and Coffee. They are strung with copper washers from the hardware store.

Fun to work with, fun to wear and appropriate for men and women.
