Rings & Things Blog Partner Project

The Art Bead Scene was invited to participate in Rings & Things blog partner program. They send a packet of items to review or use in a project, I share my thoughts and results with you.

First up are steel cable chokers. They sent a variety of sizes and colors with both the magnetic clasp and screw clasp. I loved the ease of the magnetic clasp. The colors are fun but I gravitated more toward the modern looking natural steel and the black samples. These would be great to use for a simple choker design for summer art fairs.
