What was your inspiration?

The pendant! I couldn't decide why I liked it, because I really hated geometry in school. However, this triangle just said Buy Me! I had it for almost a year before I saw this inexpensive ($3) string of turquoise howlite which seemed to be the perfect mate to the pendant. I had a little more difficulty finding just the right tiny accent bead to pull out the smokey browns and grays of the jasper.

What are you most proud of?

.That geometry finally paid off.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Often a good place to start is with a unique pendant.
