Overseer of the Garden

This pattern was developed by Shilo.

The focal bead is a handmade glass bead by Vilma Dallas.  She had used a technique in making this bead so that the bead changes colors in different lighting.  This bag measures 2 ¼-inches wide by 2 7/8-inches tall.  There are a total of 71 Swarovski Crystals in the necklace and fringe, and mother of pearl gemstone beads in the necklace.  There are approximately 5600 Delica beads in this piece.

Inspiration Spirit bags of this type sell for $500.00. It is not possible to duplicate this bag exactly. Each of the focal beads are unique. I can bead another that is similar, but the focal bead will make it unique. There are dazzling focal beads being created by glass artists all over the country! If you find one that you are drawn too, I would also gladly work with it.
