It's Always Better Together....

For so many things...

Peas and Carrots

Peanut Butter and Jelly

Left and Right

and even two of my favorite colors...

Aqua Blue and Silver, especially at Christmas!



As a Creative Team Member for ICE Resin, I had the opportunity to play and experiment a bit with some of their wonderful bezels, transparent ribbon and, of course, ICE Resin.

For my first featured project, I chose a Silver Triangle Open Back bezel. They are wonderful for filling with resin as a transparent casting either with or without loose embeddments.

I've embedded a cut-to-size, miniature flash card from my vast collection.

I love the word TOGETHER and what it stands for ... for so many applications!



The addition of a PatinaMarie Original transparent leaf, cast from ICE Resin, with loose loops of silver wire and a length of Steel Transparent Ribbon add just the right amount of translucent sparkle and elegance.

Together.

Always.
***
Always collecting and re-purposing...combining old and new.

This began as a simple, second-hand vase from the Goodwill. Add a dismantled clip-on earring and it all comes together nicely.

The silver platter is a yard sale find.
As are the blue and silver Shiny Brite ornaments, the styrofoam "beads" and even the little white square hankie it's all perched upon.

Just goes to show that elegant doesn't have to cost a fortune.
