Late last week as I was linking together the amazonite bits to the Swarovski's, I realized I needed sterling chain, so I got that as well, this time using one of their coupons to get a bit of savings - be sure you either sign up for their newsletter or check the coupon specials (there's a link on their hone page) before finalizing your order!
Wave the magic wand (well, really work for days on it) and create version 1.
Not exactly there, though, but I took a picture so you could see the changes. A couple hours later, version 2:

Liking version 2 better, so far. Will put aside for a while before deciding if it's done.
I just couldn't stop fiddling - made it a 3 layer necklace by adding satin ribbon tie-back. Added advantage that length becomes more adjustable. Pondering embellishment to ribbon...
Speaking of Artbeads - if you're on Twitter, don't forget to do the "Tweet Your Prize" contests! Today's ends at 9 a.m. Pacific but perhaps there will be another one up later this week, so check that link daily!
Update!

Love the asymmetrical design too.
ReplyDeleteThank you. It's a challenge for me as I'm a huge fan of symmetry. Sometimes, though, it just has to be different to work.
ReplyDeletegirl! this is cur-AZZY!!!
ReplyDeleteThe fiddler in me would put something on those top two cross chains too! :)
ReplyDeleteYou know, I have to tell you my stomach did a flip flop when I saw those beads, wow! What a great design and I just LOVE the diversity the cording provides. Very special!
