Materials

My handmade glass (lampwork) beads, carved bone pendant, Sterling Silver Chain and findings, copper beads and e-beads

What was your inspiration?

The Copper beads intrigued me. This is my first piece using copper. I like to make unusual pieces. In between the copper beads on the left hand side of the necklace are my handmade glass (lampwork) beads. I melted the glass under a torch and made my own beads. $109.00

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Let the beads speak to you. I had the beads for months before the idea came to me as to how to string them. I lay them out on my work board and look at them, play with them move them around until a design comes to me.
