Even when you have a perfectly matched set of beads there is still a lot you can do to make a piece of jewelry uniquely your own.
Several months ago I purchased a set of pearlescent ceramic beads from Splendid Loon Studio at a bead show in Watertown, Massachusetts.
The stringing of this necklace is simple, and I was especially pleased with the unusual way I was able to utilize the tassel finding.
It’s always fun to take another look at supplies you already have and see how they can be adapted to a new use!
Tools and Materials:
- 20 assorted 8, 10 & 12mm round ceramic beads (the colors I used: Amethyst, Lavender & Orchid)
- Heart pendant (Nina says she only makes the hearts sporadically, but will be making some more soon. You can contact her to inquire: slsstudio@cox.net)
