nuntium quinquagesimum et secundum (52nd post) snow in MN

We tried another Oovoo together last night, it worked well for three of us but the others for a variety of reasons weren't able to join us.  Technology is wonderful when it works.
We're supposed to get snow tonight but I've been working on it for awhile.  I'd been working on a bracelet which I dunked in mint tea but it just wasn't right.  Frivole made some brilliant suggestions so after taking those into account, here's what I ended up with.
But it was so picky!  So I thought I could make the top half and using split rings go from one motif to the other.  But that didn't work so I made fake rings with chains.  What do you think?

Can you guess which is which?  Maybe not above but in this close-up below it's easy.  Was it worth not having to weave in all those ends?
 
motif #25!!
I made earrings to match.
And this necklace which isn't my own idea but again Decoromana's - don't worry, I'm not selling it, it's just for me.  : )
Wish that were my pretty neck- it's my daughter!
Here's the "set".

I'm wearing them all tomorrow for December 1st!


Latin for today:  ningat, ningat, ningat = Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
