Green Eyed Lady




I call this one Green Eyed Lady for three reasons, a) it does have green in it and b) it reminds me of how when you look at an eye, it never is just one color. There are always flecks of brown, or blue or sometimes gold. My final reason is cause when I read the lyrics to the song, certain parts of it reminded me of the actual necklace.

Green eyed lady, windswept lady
moves the night the waves the sand

Green eyed lady ocean lady
child of nature, friend of man

Green eyed lady passions lady
dressed in love she lives for life to be

I made this necklace completly on a whim. I had no green necklaces and I just decided one afternoon to make one.

Materials:

8 dark brown wood tube beads
8 caramel wood square beads
36 black 5mm beads
36 white 5mm beads
68 green 5mm beads
1 silver toggle clasp
2 silver crimp beads

  1. This post represents a pure artist. Beautiful jewelry combined with the poetic side (song lyrics) . . . This song was written long before you were born. However, I love that you see it's importance and relate it to your work. Hugs, Mum
