Sometimes, I plan out an entire piece of jewelry before I start making it. But in this case, I spent a couple of late nights designing as I bent wire to make this Christmas gift for my mother. As soon as I looked at these Swarovski crystals in Montana blue, I knew I wanted to create the night sky. The color is perfect for a clear night. I brought out the myriad of stars you would see on such a clear night with the little silver, diamond charms, the twinkling crystals, the diamond links, and the bicone-shaped beads. And, of course, the crescent moon hangs down from the blanket of stars.
Aside: On the red background, it makes me think of the saying: Red sky at night, sailor's delight!
