Crystal Island

Crystal Island began on an agate with a druzy center. The hole only gives it more sparkle.  Then those nice Florida Long Leaf pine needles were added with a few smaller Feldspath Graphic beads.  My favorite Muhly Grass is sewn in next.  This is the time to cut your Muhly Grass before the September stalk that produces the flower begins to take over the hole plant.  I am now remembering that I have one more plant to cut this weekend and place on the drying shelves!  The Feldspath Graphic pendants complete the design with another dozen smaller beads to make the basket balanced.  The side view gives a better look at the beads.


Approximate Size: 8.5 x 9.5 x 3.75 inches
