I bought a strand of this gorgeous marble stones and didn't know what to do with them until a couple of nights ago. I used this Lizbeth thread because was already on the shuttles. :-) I like it but I'm not convince of the thread color. I'll make another one using black or ecru. The stone is a little over an inch high. I have a matching strand of stones but like 1/2" so I'll make a set of pendant and earrings. I "encapsulate" the stone with a double round of split rings. Like Jane explains in one of her patterns ( can't find it now)... :-( So the stone looks the same front and back. Then I made the edging around. Something pretty simple.
Now I have to think what kind of cord will go great with the pendant.

I like the idea of the pendant. Sometimes it takes a while to get the creative juices going when faced with a new bead/thread/finding etc. Love the thread colour too.
I love that its so pretty!!
The thread and the marble colours are fabulous together!
Salam Wally, I like this. I dont have any stones but I am going to try with buttons.
I love the pattern with the marble! I agree with you...the ecru wil look MAH-valous, DAHlink! :)
