Difficulty:

Category: Weaving

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Casual


Materials

Glass, Gemstone, Ceramic, Dichroic Glass beads, seed beads, small brass barrel beads, stringing wire, barrel twist clasp

What was your inspiration?

I wanted a long necklace that could be worn with anything and used up some beads that I only had in ones and twos.

What are you most proud of?

I used two large beads in the same color family before I changed to color, to give it more continuity.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Beads don't have to be the same shape, but should all be about the same size. Use an alligator clip to hold one end of the wire, especially as it gets longer (ask me how I know).

What a great way to use up some single beads...& all those seed beads I thought I would never use(I have lots).
