Cotton Candy

by V. Rinaldi
Forest House Jewelry Designs

About the Design: I was immediately taken with "Sun-Kissed" by Carol Horan Reesha. I had a string of pink coin pearls begging to be used, and I knew this design would do them justice. I changed the design slightly ( I never like to copy anyone else's work ) by using miyuki 4mm cubes, 3mm pink freshwater pearls, figure 8 chain, cornerless sterling cubes, and a Bali Toggle Clasp. This piece reminds me of cotton candy.

From the designer: "I work with sterling silver and semi-precious stones, Swarovski crystals and anything else that catches my fancy."
