ABS July 2011 Challenge painting "Morning in the Garden at Vaucresson", by Edouard Vuillard 1923 reworked 1938. 

These beautiful lampwork beads were made by Lori Peterson:  http://www.etsy.com/shop/loribeads.  I love the gorgeous colors in Vuillard's painting and so they were perfect for me.  The riot of colors are my colors (!!!) and I had had these beads in my stash for a while.  I'm sorry that my pictures are not the best this time (what is up with my camera?)...just couldn't get a good picture to do justice to these fabulous beads.  They are soooo beautiful in person!

I added Swarovski Crystals, Vintaj Brass, an awesome box clasp that had been saving for these beads, and wire wrapped the bracelet in Sterling Silver.  I'm afraid I will be keeping this bracelet for myself...don't want to part with it...I'm being bad!
