Reader's Challenge Mystery Component Reveal...


Each of the September Reader's Challenge Design Kits included a mystery component plus a few extra special goodies. Not even the participants knew what they were getting as the surprise ingredient until it arrived at their door. Above is the reveal of the mystery component for September! 


The Mystery Component is an amethyst dichroic glass bead!  They were made special for the challenge.  They have a mix of lavender and pale purples.  


Since it is my birthday month, I wanted to add some special presents to each kit.  I included a handcrafted copper coin pendant featuring a stylized flower motif.  Each coin has been flame-polished and lightly buffed with Renaissance Wax and hand-colored with Gilder's Paste.  I also included a length of silver-plated steel double-rollo chain.
