Instructions
There is no special pattern for this. basically i wanted this to be cute but simple and so i didn't string too many beads, which could look too chaotic sometimes, hence i strung a few beads either side of the shell and ended it with a knot,which allows you to adjust the size.Difficulty:

Washed ashore by waves of the Bay of Bengal, I found this shell a few years back while walking on a beach in India and always admired its beauty. With the addition of the wooden and turquoise beads and black string, this is a piece I almost hate to part with. It is a casual necklace that is durable enough for everyday use, but elegant enough to catch the eye. Length of this necklace is adjustable all you need is beads, string and some imagination!
What was your inspiration?
I began making various crafts at a young age. I went to school that encouraged learning bead work, tailoring,pottery and so i know basics of various crafts. I think as i grew older i realized how amazing it was that i had been exposed to different craft making and that is why i became inspired to keep making things.
What are you most proud of?
I am happy with myself for one thing. That is the fact that i began doing this as a hobby from a young age but i still love it so much that i have begun making crafts mores seriously, which i am glad about.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
All i am going to say is, each person is different and every person will have their own style when it comes to crafts or art. So don't be disappointing if doesn't come out exactly the same, it doesn't have to look the same and you can bring your style and creativity to it and even change it up if you like. Juts make sure you have a good time while making it, always enjoy the process of making something and it will turn out great!
