Blue, black, and brown were the colors that were requested to create this piece for a customer and they came together in a beautiful creation.  The color of blue is hard to capture here but it is a warm blue, almost a slate blue.  Lovely.  I included smoky quartz, freshwater pearls, blank onyx, and various sterling silver beads in this design along with my lampwork beads.  

Forever Young says it all, doesn't it?  Do any of us feel our age?  I know I feel younger than I am...much younger.  Time slips away and I can't believe another year has slipped into another and another but I still stay young in my heart.  My mind and body reflect my age but that is another topic which I will refrain from commenting on this time.  (You're welcome.)  ha ha
