The necklace you've made has a really luxurious feel and I think it's perfection! As far as the author's insertion of his own story into the book, I wasn't super impressed. I sort of felt it glorified that potentially deadly wanderlust. I know that he was trying to relate to Chris's story with his own and show that there are others who have struggled with their own issues by challenging themselves, but I don't know. I sort of felt like the others in the bar after he came down from the mountain. I didn't really care. I should be more sympathetic, but really I thought the examples he gave were of spoiled, self-indulgent restless spirits. While I don't like the reference, I do like your piece! Ha ha ha! Thanks so much for participating! I appreciate all your energy and even if you didn't always get to play along, I know your heart has been in it!

I've been out of the group too for the last several months due to a cross country move as well. I moved from TN to Maryland, which is still the South, only barely :)<br />XO RachelBluefinch https://www.blogger.com/profile/15907692345452234906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477751269693976729.post-44732145062756668722015-01-29T13:18:13.832-05:002015-01-29T13:18:13.832-05:00Wow!

That art bead is gorgeous and we never would have known you had a design challenge with the hole if you hadn't told us... great solution. There's nothing wrong with keeping it simple. The chocolate brown pearls, silver, and turquoise play so well together!Sarajo Wentlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742024924082041494noreply@blogger.com
