Hello Crafters and Rennies!
I have developed some new favours for this fall, and wanted your opinion. Going off the play on words of my (character) last name "Swanbee" , I have made these little swans. I have also made a little bee, but m;lord thinks he looks odd hanging there, as he is attached by a chain. I cannot hang him from elsewhere, as he balances the swan a little. So the question is - should I keepthe bee, or leave the swan by itself? Sorry for the quality of the pics - some have ye old renaissance towel as a back ground, and some m'lord's hat, as it was close at hand. These are clickable thumbnails - and apparently the second thumbnail is upside down - but when you click on it, it is right side up.

Just my opinion, but the bee makes it unique. Lots of swans around; lots of bees; not many together. You might want to add a little more to the connecting chain(?) to make the bee jiggle a bit as the wearer moves.
i like these they are very unique and cute go with the bee
Bee.
If your character name was Swan, then I'd wonder, why the bee? But the name is Swanbee, so a swan and a bee is perfect! They are very pretty, and I couldn't imagine any of your friends being anything less than delighted with the gift! You are quite talented!
Thanks for your feedback! I did some re working, and this is the finished product:

Now, if only I have the courage to actually hand them out!
