Summer Pinata – Necklace

[galleria width=”900″ height=”660″]

It has been a very long time since I was just another child sitting patiently underneath acolorful Piñata at a birthday party, waiting patiently for the moment that the birthday kid breaks it open with a large stick, and allows its precious little candies and toys rain over us children. No matter how many years go by, apparently that child still lives in me.  It only took to see a handful of Piñata photographs for the little girl inside of me to come through. I instantly felt the same butterflies in my belly as I always did just before a Piñata was about to be opened.

 

After that feeling a little over a week ago I haven’t been able to take those pictures and emotions out of my mind. I knew that my next piece would be an attempt at trying to replicate the happy “feeling” that a Piñata always brought to me, but it took me quite a while to figure out how to translate that into shapes.  I finished several designs, and even though they all felt “good” none of them felt “GREAT”, which is how I always like to feel prior to beginning my work.  And so, after almost a full day  working on my necklace based on my final design, an image popped into my head! … out of nowhere!! I knewTHAT was the design of my necklace.

I didn’t mind starting from scratch when it feels this good.  Hopefully this fun Summer Piñata Necklace will have that same effect on you 

Are you having a lovely Summer yet?

Much love to you!
