Beading with Swarovski

Here are the newest colors from Swarovski: Light Turquoise, Crystal Blue Shade, and Crystal Light Grey (pearl)...gorgeous as usual! The light turquoise reminds me of Tiffany Blue.

In Progress

I've been finding some really neat buttons lately...so I am making them into jewelry of course! Here is a picture of some of the awesome finds...

The "P" button on the far right is from a vintage San Francisco Police uniform. It's going to be a necklace for me, representing my last name, Paganucci :)

In the backyard...

...are these beautiful blooms!
