Gelato

Here is the finished picture of the last post.

I spent yesterday morning trying to come up with a rope I liked.

I tried Chevron but wasn't happy with it. I tried an ECRAW and found this to be the best. 

I then tried three colour combinations until I found one I liked.

In the end it took me four hours to decide the rope, decide the colour and make 12cm (5") of rope.

Pheeewww!!! I tell you bead weavers sure don't get paid for the pursuit of perfection.

As I was finishing the rope this morning the word "Gelato" kept playing in my mind.

Often the names I call my designs come this way. At first I thought it was the fun colours but then I realised there are a lot of "cone" shapes in the pendant. 

So I went with "Gelato" as the name for my necklace for the combination of the gelato like colours 

and cone shapes.

I had a friend ask me what flavours were in "Gelato"? 

I quickly responded with Mediterranean Mint and Peach Pizazz!!!   

So I hope I have tempted you with an ice cream treat and you like my "Gelato"
