I pulled a picture of a necklace out of a fashion catalog some time ago. There was just something about the design that appealed to me. Finally, I’m getting around to making it for myself.

In the video I explain my thought process, and how I made the design my own.

One thing that needs to be changed (and I kinda mention it in the video) is that the jump rings to the top of the center oval need to be a little larger.  At the size they are they actually stick and it doesn’t hang straight.  Just something to keep in mind…

Happy creating!

  1. That is very nice. It makes me wish I went more places where I could wear jewelry. Oooh, I like your fingernails, too. Mine are pathetic.

    1. It’s funny you mention that. I’ve noticed, for some reason, my nails look better in the videos than they seem to me irl. Usually it works the other way…

      1. Also, the necklace you made is prettier than the one in the ad, IMO. The brown/black/toffee combo looks more expensive than the coral.

        1. Aw, you’re always so kind.

          As I think about it, that’s generally my goal: take a design and make it my own and make it better. I’m glad at least one other person thinks I succeeded. 😉
