Faery goes to Africa
After a long wait, my Faery Africa beads and lock arrived yesterday, I have been collecting beads for this permanent combo since I first heard there was going to be Africa beads, my combo is inspired by the beautiful tissues and fabrics the African women wear, exactly to my liking and I really really love this so much.
The lock is beautiful, great detail as always and came very nicely finished, the beads are gorgeous, just the way I love them, quite heavy, but that is the way I prefer them. The design is extremely beautiful,
By chance I found a nice cup in a third world shop, unfortunately only one set left, but I knew, it would help to explain my design, and besides, I love shopping for mugs and the like, sitting like a
in the spring sun, drinking coffee and meditate over my new treasures.
Wish there was a pendant too
I got plenty of beads to go with it and also plenty of other stuff,
One thing I want to say, on the bracelet is a wonderful wonderful lilac bead, I got it gifted from a most wonderful lady and I am over the moon with this bead which will always have a place of honour and always be cherished, thank you so much again!
omg.... so much writing, normally I am not that proliferic...here the pics....

Cats, these are stunning! And I love that you are focusing on the women of Africa for the colors and designs of the glass beads.

Re: Faery goes to Africa
Utterly gorgeous! I love the theme and colors you choose to go with the silvers and how these highlight other, even more colorful, aspects of Africa. Your beautiful earthenware provides a perfect background and enhances the vivid colors of your creations.
And yes, there are pendants too. Pictures follow soon when Eva and Manon are back.

A lovely creature that Faerybeads has been able to capture it's beauty . You Catsworld have given a wonderful choice of colours and texture!! You can feel the taste of Africa, really really worth waiting to see! I am sure the special liliac bead is honored to have such a place in a wonderful combination... The bead couldn't have dreamed of a better life!!

Re: Faery goes to Africa
Your bracelet is amazing! I love the bright, cheerful colors, and they are perfect with the lock. And the lock itself is stunning! I pre-ordered one, and am eagerly awaiting the moment it's in my hands. I'm so glad to have a little eye candy in the form of your gorgeous photos to drool over in the meantime. They assure me the lock will be worth the wait! ![bounce](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_bounce.gif)

Re: Faery goes to Africa
This is utterly GORGEOUS, Cats!! I love it so much.
This reminded me of something that I hope you don't mind me sharing, I'm rather proud of it...
I was project manager for a program in the company I work for called "Fabric of Africa" - it is all about improving access to healthcare for African women and children (because women are the "fabric" that bind society).
