I bet it feels like 2 years of blogging has really gone by fast!<br />I sure enjoyed the stories and the focal by Jana is really fantastic - so special that she created it just for the occasion. Your necklace is stunning, Cynthia. I like how you positioned the focal and my goodness, the beadwork is out of this world.<br />Btw....catching up on your last post: WOW. What an amazing collection of photos. I like that - taking images throughout the day. There's no other way to really get a feel for what your day is like. I should try that! :-) And boy are up and out the door early!Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16954185877461502547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806686507038523712.post-58648888352166041842013-10-23T21:21:47.128-04:002013-10-23T21:21:47.128-04:00Wonderful choice for a focal.

I am not familiar with the sleeping giant story so find it interesting that it was so pervasive. It reminds me of the constellations that were mapped out by the sheep herders of long ago. I guess if you're outside a lot more and gazing at the landscape (sky)... you start seeing these things. I absolutely love the multiple seed bead strands and the graduation in color - stars... very wearable!<br />On another note, I have a feeling Jana is going to love seeing all these interpretations!Honey from the Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01955079572505560557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806686507038523712.post-33444845085532176272013-10-23T11:03:37.930-04:002013-10-23T11:03:37.930-04:00The reason I love to read your blog is the "h...The reason I love to read your blog is the "history" learned - awesome post!

There used to me a Man in the Mountain in NH but he crumbled some years back. There is however still an Indian head in one of the rocks. Very cool! That icicle image is amazing.<br /><br />I have enjoyed visiting your blog over the last couple of years. Your posts have a little bit of everything including beautiful jewelry, humor and great history.

I love, love, love what you did with your Sleeping Giant and as usual I love your stories and the interesting facts that you share on your blog. Love the focal from Jana and all the other designs that your friends created. What a great idea. I do need to pick your brain on the technique you used with the beaded section of your piece. The way you graduated the beads and got that twist into the strands. Awesome. Looking forward to many more years of blogs from you my friend.

It is funny how, so far you and Christine, pictured pretty much the same thing you two have a fantastic creative connection. I saw everything you described in your piece before I read your description, with the exception of the reflective water.

Yours has such a tranquil look, sleeping among the stars and water. This really is sensational! It has a peaceful flow to it. Gorgeous beading and color choices.

I just love the representation of night in the neckpiece (and I must apologize for not using the seed beads, they just didn't want to be in the dance :) ) ~ down to the sparkly stars, beautiful detail! <br />Thank you again: both for inviting me to your party, and for your continuous friendship! I appreciate both very, very, very much :) <br />Happy blogo-versary!
