When combined with this supple bead crochet lariat, the center focal bead just seems to pull the whole look together. This particular focal bead is one of my newest designs. I just love the flow and diversity of this particular style. The focal bead measures approximately 2 1/2". It is composed of Italian glass and has several fringe branches made of seed beads & Swarovski crystals hanging from the center. And now for the piece de resistance...the swirly part that the lariat is wound around is actually a "silly straw" that was reshaped into the necessary configuration. Silly, yet beautiful at the same time.

FYI, I also have some of my lampwork beads up for auction on ebay. They end tomorrow, 11/1/06 . Take a look!
