It's hard to describe the feeling of opening up some of the boxes from these crafters.  You really never know what you're going to get.  I can assure you I had no idea what this was going to be like--bead sewn velvet backed by leather?  There's nothing like it out there that I've seen, and I desperately want someone to be as wowed by this thing as I was.
 
Velvet, a leather backing, hand-sewn fire-polished Czech glass beads, blue cabochons, bronze findings.  It's spectacular.
 
Worth mentioning is its size--Lia put it on a long satin cord for a reason so it hangs lower--but we're happy to adjust accordingly.  Because Lia is a most awesome person, they also provided a chain for those who aren't as enamored with the satin.
 
All good.
