Peacocks and Prehnite

Instructions

Think backwards! Put toggle clasp in front and and add a focal bead to it.

Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Mod, Cute, Whimsical


Materials

Peacock Cultured Fresh Water Pearls and Prehnite Oval Nuggets with silver-plated findings.

What was your inspiration?

The many colors (blue-black, purple, green and sometimes gold) reflected by the peacock-colored FW pearls are perfectly complemented by the cool, translucent elegance of prehnite and the different sizes and shapes of the beads add interest when used together.

What are you most proud of?

The fact that you can break with tradition and get away with it. Put the clasp in front -- so there! Or, wear the clasp in back and walk backwards. Live life and be joyful!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't be bound by "the usual," but try something off-beat and wear it proudly.
