Andrew Thornton's Hidden Cove Challenge


Today is the reveal of the Andrew Thornton's Hidden Cove Challenge. Growing up Blue was my most favorist color, (she laughs) My kitchen was blue and white with those blue willow plates and saucers.  I even have this cute Teapot set.  Living room was Sky blue and white with Navy blue wall to wall carpet. Bathroom Courtesy of Sears was Blue, beige and white. That was like twenty years ago.  When I purchased my house my mom said I hope everything is not going to be blue. SMH.  This is the Hidden Cove Kit I purchased, had to have it.




















This kit features a selection of premium Czech glass (both new and vintage), vintage lucite, vintage acrylic, waxed cotton cord, manik-manik Indonesian lampwork glass, a vintage seed bead mix, dalmatian jasper, wood, an African trade bead, a strand of sodalite and a Luxury Bead Blend




The Secret Component
First I created the earrings I could of gone on and on, so many pretties in the kit. A matching Charmie Necklace. Andrew's kit and my brass charms from Bsue Boutiques

  5. Oh my-really, really like all the earrings especially. I couldn't figure out what to do with those half rounds and they look great in your design. I agree - blue was my favorite color too! And I always have a soft spot for charm necklaces - yours is fabulous!

  6. So many lovely creations! I love your earrings! So cute! And your necklace is so eclectic and has so much energy! The bracelet has a nice luxurious feel and I think all the vintage brass compliments the kit well! It really brings out and enhances the tans in the kit. And I loved hearing about your first house with all the blue! Thanks so much for participating!
