What was your inspiration?

My inspiration for this design was actually the colorful row houses of La Boca in Argentina. I also wanted to create something that was simple to make and yet challenging enough to be fun.

What are you most proud of?

I love the fact that the options are endless with this necklace. You can change the entire design just by changing a few colors!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Pay close attention to the illustrations if you are a beginner and don't get discouraged if it doesn't work the first time. Beadweaving is tricky but the results are worth it every time!
