I have a tendency to over complicate my designs. I am often guilty of the ‘just one more’ school of thought on beading design. So it is always refreshing to me when I see a design that is decidedly uncomplicated. I love the simplicity of this design. The arrow shape of the beads. The spaces giving them a chance to ‘breathe,’ to be treasured individually and collectively without a lot of ‘noise.’ This necklace is a very wearable piece of art and I like that.
