Variations using many of the same materials

Using most of the same materials I have also created globes within which I will suspend a focal element, either a miniature ornament or a bead.  Like the previous chandelier ornaments, I can change the color of the beads on the arcs to either match the focal element or to help offset the element, thereby creating ornaments a wide range of colors using the same design.  For the focal elements, I will look at the miniature ornaments available each year and pick-up several packages of them.  I will also use teardrops, most of the time faux pearls because of their size.



I can create several different sizes of globes.  The larger being almost 6 inches across and 8 inches high, pretty large ornaments for most trees but fairly light compared to ornaments of the same size.
