This is a new Necklace I designed for my friend who is going be celebrating her birthday soon. It should go with a bunch of her other jewelry. So I wanted to surprise her with something new, and I knew she really wanted a necklace... So here it is.
The centers of the 2 doilies are abalone. I love that shell. Around the centers is brick stitch, and then some fringing. The rope is a simple spiral, with a sterling silver "s" hook.

I made this Necklace ...

For a custom order a few days ago.

My New Necklace: Storm Of The Century

This necklace was created for the 2008 BeadDreams competition for Bead & Button magazine. Submissions are due by April 4th, but you don't find out if you even get accepted into the competition until April 25th. So we will just have to wait and see. This bracelet was to go with the Storm of the Century bracelet, but that piece sold. Yay for me.
