I&#8217;m calling it Louis XIV for the moment.  It&#8217;s a good thing I wasn&#8217;t keeping track of the number of hours I put into making it &#8212; I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s huge, with all the netting, and the 66 bi-colored loops.  It reminds me of one of those super fancy lamp shades.<\/p>\n<p>On the right is one of my regular double swag patterns.  I usually make them with silver-lined bugle beads in various colors, but this time I used an interesting blue opaque bugle that I ordered just for this purpose.

And I just happened to have some larger focal beads in an identical color to finish the look.<\/p>\n<p>You can see all my <a href=\"http:\/\/http:\/\/www.secondwindjewelry.com\/victorian-christmas-ornaments.htm\" target= \"_blank\">Victorian Christmas ornaments<\/a>, and make purchases if you&#8217;d like, on my website.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your turn: has anything over-the-top come into your life of late?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I can weave some now, but not for hours at a time.
