Pink Pearl Necklace

Today I finished the pink necklace that I have been working on this week as part of my entry for the 'Perfectly Period Pink' Mini-challenge through the Realm of Venus. It has pink glass peals in a shade called 'barely pink' and a glass stone that I painted to get the right shade of pink, mounted in an antique bronze setting.

Not being a very 'pink' sort of girl, I thought I wouldn't like the finished product much, but I am actually delighted by it! It is so pretty. Sigh. I am such a magpie and a sucker for anything sparkly!

Update

I haven't posted much lately because I have been unwell, and I have been struggling with my projects. One of the problems I have been having is with my hands, which are not working well. This has been making it difficult to get the embroidery for the 'Perfectly Period Pink' IRCC Challenge done on time.
Also, I tried on my blue front lacing dress and it looks pretty awful. I must have lost a lot of muscle tone during my recent illness because it is too big (! what a shock - that has NEVER happened before :-)  !) Now, it just looks sloppy.  (I am happy with the way it looks on the hanger.) That setback has made it hard to keep my motivation up to finish the complete outfit. I will get back into my regular exercise routine, keep plugging away at the Realm of Venus mini-Challenge, and hopefully, when I get back to the project it will look better on me.
