Well the silver evening bag is finished! Went snap! like a breeze. Then, figuring out how best to apply the beaded adornments was another story. Took me a little bit to decide how to display those luscious 24 Swarovski crystal teardrops…….. but I did it, and it looks amazing. Got some fairly significant ooh’s and aah’s from ALL the people I showed it to.

So, here goes…………….

And here’s a closeup of the crystal beaded details ~ still a little hard to see as it’s silver on silver basically and crystals are more or less tranparent however the aurora borealis in the crystals helps.

Here’s the deal ~ it’s really a sparkly show-stopper:

Silver acrylic crocheted evening bag with lovely silver metallic crocheted header and ruffle. Evening bag is trimmed with three layers of beaded looping fringe made out of clear crystal silver lined Czech glass rocaille beads and 24 clear crystal aurora borealis Swarovski® crystal teardrops. Each crystal teardrop has a sterling silver wrapped loop for strength, quality and simply a gorgeous touch! The sparkle is incomparable between all the silver yarn, metallic threads, beaded fringe and crystals. If you love silver, this is definitely the evening bag for you!

Double drawstring shoulder strap. 6″ wide, 9″ high.

Perfect for special dinner dates, weddings, proms, formal dinners and occasions, theatre nights, and other dressy occasions. One of a kind creation.

Easy care ~ spot hand wash the evening bag as needed, avoid beading as much as possible, lay out in towel to dry. Will give you years of use.

I just realized I created four styles of these lovely earrings, so I thought I would display that here. I have to create more with the hearts dangling, right now I only have one pair, but that won’t be any problem at all!!

 I simply love making these earrings, sometimes it is a test of patience, but oh the rewards are worth it when each pair is done!
