As I grew up in Japan, I cannot think about spring time without blooming cherry blossom. Every year, when spring comes, the town in Japan is dyed to one cherry blossoms color. We have picnic and party under the cherry blossom tree! How cherry blossoms are blooming is on every news!! And this year, some reason I’m just drawn to yellow. So I picked yellow as base color. Then I stamped cherry blossom branch image and shift glass enamel & fired it. And I paint (in enamel term called “wet pack”) some white and pink for flower. Then I suspend it from fine silver circle. As spring will come every year. I embellished with single “sakura poppy” disk. Finally, this necklace has matching earrings that available in my Etsy shop!

That is Beautiful! I loved to read about your inspiration too.
This new piece is very nice. i love the warm colours and the flowers look so sweet, I can almost imagine I'm smelling the flowers. LOL
The pretty colors and significance of the cherry blossoms makes it very special.
Love your choice of colors, Natsuko~beautiful!
Very beautiful. Reminds me of the cherry blossoms of Washington DC which I enjoyed when I lived there.
I also have lived in the Washington DC area off and on my whole life and the cherry blossoms bring back good memories. I love the whole design and the poppy is perfect.
I love these!! We have cherry trees in the downtown area and I love the blossoms!
