Custom order - seahorse

As I have mentioned before - I have received a custom order that was rather a challenge to me and I am glad that I have managed to fulfill the clients wish and she is satisfied with the result.

The color and theme inspiration came from my recent work - necklace "Dreaming seahorses" - the client has contacted me with the question - would I be able to create a small brooch approx. 5 cm size with a shape of seahorse using the same color palette as in the necklace.

Well, the size was a challenge and problem, as the original seahorse is two times bigger than the new one, but giving a try I have created the smallest version that could be bead embroidered and here is the result (I am sorry for the photo quality, but being in hurry I was able to take photos only with a phone).

SEAHORSE

Small recognition of my work

I have been busy for the last days with the promotion of my etsy shop, doing some bead work and still working on the custom order I have received (I do hope that the client will be satisfied).
In any case, today I got a small surprise and small recognition of my work.
Czech bead supplier Koralky.cz has included my necklace "Dreaming seahorses" into their best February work selection.


How lovely :) it just makes me proud of my work and efforts, prepare for more to come - as my custom bead embroidery work is tightly related to this necklace and sea horses (making spoiler :) ).
