 The Atlantis Pearlfish - by Linda Smith
(Sorcie)
The mythical Atlantians adorned themselves with so many beautiful jewels and pearls that when the city sank, even the sealife wallowed in the riches! This watery guy is fabricated from a silver wire frame and woven with glittering Swarovski crystals and lustrous fresh water pearls. He can be worn as a brooch or turned on his tail and worn as a pendant.

 SECOND PLACE!
by Leah Hitchcock (LEAHMICHON)
This pearl choker was once owned by a beautiful woman who lived in Atlantis. After Atlantis mysteriously disappeared into the ocean, seaweed became entangled around the pearls in the necklace. When divers dicovered the necklace and removed it from the ocean floor, they noticed that the necklace had changed - the seaweed had turned silver! (It is actually 12mm Swarovski crystal pearls, Swarovski crystal, and sterling silver wire, with a simple hook and eye clasp.)

"Treasure of Atlantis" by Heather Hawkins (wolfyheather)
A fine dichroic glass cabochon by Mikki Pyle (Stix 'n' Stonz Glass) is wrapped in waves of sterling silver and surrounded by a treasure of creamy pearls, dark blue pearls, Bali silver beads and delicate silver paddles that shimmer with the movement of the ocean.

 Lost Treasures of Atlantis Bracelet - by Laurie Wedge (lauriejw)
I used glittery faceted glass beads on gold-filled wire links, along with vermeil Bali-style beads, and gold-filled box chainmaille. The clasp is gold-filled, and suited this piece nicely - it looks like a big gold bead. I attached a large white freshwater pearl to dangle from the chunky vermeil toggle. This looked very treasure-y to me, all colors and shiny gold and very lush. It made me think of what you see when you open the treasure box. The colors don't show as vibrantly in the pic as they really are.

 Here's a piece of "My Lady's Garden". I cut and shaped the wooden goddess and heart myself. The beads are from a past bead swap except for the green leaves. I tried something different with the figure-eight links.

 I call this one "Flower Power". It's copper wire and size 8 hex beads.
