Ribbon

Ribbon

don't know why I made this
haha... but I kept thinking of ribbon
and no matter what other shape i twist and turn,
it keep on looking like ribbon
so I thought whatever, let me make a nice ribbon then
the interesting thing is 'Ribbon' just like 'Dazzling Pixie' doesnt really look as nice just looking at it, but it looks much nicer when worn
interesting right...haha :)
btw, 'Dazzling Pixie' has changed name to 'Bouquet'
hubby said that's a better name, and he persist in thinking abt it after so long
actually I thought so too
maybe out of nostalgia i was thinking of it again
and FINALLY I decide to change its name.

dotted with brown bright seed beads and brown Swarovski crystal
complete with a small gold filled earring hook
