$4.00 Necklace

Pendant closeup
Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Traditional


Materials

Shell beads, filigree metal beads, black glass beads, black glass pendant, brass headpins, jumprings, toggle clasp

What was your inspiration?

The necklace is part of a donation for my church's Oktoberfest and I needed to use inexpensive beads. I found four $1.00 packets of beads at Wal-Mart that worked into this warm Fall tone necklace. The findings were from my stash.

What are you most proud of?

I love that $4.00 worth of beads turned into this necklace that I would definitely wear.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't necessarily overlook cheaper beads, you may just find the right thing.
