happy friday all! not so long ago i started a new category - monkey see...monkey do - where i draw from subject matter around me & do my own inspired spin-off.
well a favorite necklace from my collection happens to be behind the creative spark to reinvent a "shadow of itself". monkey see...
a shadow of itself...the silhouette {below} provided the vision i needed. though i admired the turquoise i knew i could create something equally as interesting in another media.
with that...i did some metal-working combined with a vintage button + smokey hued pearl chain which brings us to the...monkey do...
i knew i would never part with the original...and this "shadow of itself" will be a hard one to put up for adoption. but share & share alike...i would like to think it will premier @ shady hollow's grand reopening in may. or possibly a shadow of the shadow?? guess time will tell!
wishing you a wonderful start to your weekend!
