Oh my gosh, Ria, this is gorgeous! You really picked that skill up fast! Beautiful colors. I really like your choices, and this doesn't look too messy like ones I've seen elsewhere. (Not Ellygator's, just to make that clear. Otherwise I have a feeling I'd be opening my mouth, inserting my foot... XD yeah...) But anyways, she must be so pleased with this beautiful piece! Ria, you're so multi-talented it's awesome!

Oh, sweetie you are too kind! I always make more progress when I am working for somebody else-- like when I drew you that Harry Potter/Labyrinth crossover, I made huge leaps in my drawing (though that's still a bit hit or miss for me). And I have been doing beadweaving for going on 15 years now, since I was a little teeny kid!
And I am very lucky in that she does seem to be quite pleased with this-- soon she'll publish her half of hte trade (Lestat & Allegria drawing!!!!!), and then you can see the picture that has been sitting right next to my printout of your lovely gift art! That's right, I was too impatient to wait for the real thing...

Thank you! It is such a wonderfully bold and summery piece. I fully plan to wear it on my birthday (of course I'm already wearing it!) I'll post my part of the trade today and will link to this, too!

My jaw hit the floor when I saw this...
That's such a beautifully crafted necklace!

Thank you again! I do love ego-boosting! It was a lot of fun to figure out how to design it.
