Bookmark job


This is the bookmark tail I designed and made 100 of for Fiona's 3rd Percheron book "Goddess". They were given out to press and special people at the launch. I even got my name in the acknowledgements ;)
I used gold colour tigertail wire and a mix of beads including swarovski crystals to match in with the colour scheme of the cover and the setting of the story.
This lot was comissioned by Harper Collins Publishers.
The ones I am doing now are for her first crime novel "Bye Bye baby" which she writes under the psuedonym Lauren Crow. I have used black wire and a mix of red and silver beads with a garnet colour Czech glass bead to look like a drop of blood on the end. Really happy with them and I'm about halfway to completion.
This job is for the Burnside Library who are having a special event. At first they wanted 1000-2000 but that was going to be impossible for me so we whittled it down to 300. Will post pics of those once finished :)
