My Creative Space-Eclipse

Recently I found a project idea to make this necklace. I was trying to find some sort of Eclipse themed item to buy to give to my Twilight buddy, Jenn Lebron in celebration of Eclipse and saw this project idea on Artbeads.com which was inspired by a note in the book by Edward left to Bella saying that he would be back soon. I love Jenn Lebron! She is so much fun & creative, and is a fan of the Twilight book series as well. I have met many people here who watch the movies but have not bothered with the books and it's just not something I understand too well. To me a book is everything and adds so much more depth to the storyline and characters, while a movie is limited. You can only do so much with a movie. It is nice to have a friend here who also feels the same way. We've both been pumped about this movie coming out for quite some time now, so I decided to make these necklaces, one for each of us. You can find the project idea on Artbeads.com but I actually minimized it a bit as the original project was a lot more elaborate and expensive to make. I decided not to add the center filigree link and replaced it with an antique brass bail and left out the crystals that go along the chain. I like the way it turned out because I feel it is more wearable. Not something you just wear to a ball and I like the sentimental message behind it, as well as the way it represents the note left by Edward in the book. :) Love that it references Edward, but I'm still Team Jacob. LOL
Eclipse was great! So worth going to and I cannot wait for the final chapter :) I met some really cool people today. The Beer Sisters, Claire & Mary, whose family has been standing in as the caretakers at the Hospitality House in Vicenza. Both girls were awesome and so much fun to be around. I liked them both right away. Unfortunately, they leave Italy tomorrow, but I was glad I got a chance to meet them both.

  2. Great idea Cheron! It looks great on your friend Jenn. So was the main character as annoying as she usually is or has she matured... that is the only thing keeping from watching it, she wasn't the sharpest stick in the bunch!

  4. Haha-yeah she's still an idiot. There was even a part in the movie when we were rooting for Jacob to push her over a ledge.
