My art instructor, Jeannie Dukic of the Drawing Lab is not only a talented artist, but also a very talented jewelry designer. She offered her beautiful art beads to us as a challenge in making our own jewelry. Here are the beads she sent me – handmade polymer clay beads with real gold leaf:
And here is what I created. A bracelet and earring set. I love to combine metals; gold and silver:
Thank you Jeannie for providing me with such beautiful beads to work with! 🙂

This set is beautiful. You surprised me by using the two colors together. You made it look like a piece of fine designer jewelry. Thank you Linda! Thank you for letting me send you my Peeled Paint beads and thank you for sharing it here on your blog.
This is just lovely. I think that Jeannie is marvelously talented!
Enjoy the day.

Very pretty beads–and I love the set you made with them. Mixing the colors was brilliant!
Just saw the set on Jeannie’s blog and OMG! They look like Christmas decoration in your set. So festive!
