So, I was making jewelry the other day, and I thought how pretty it would be to make one big long necklace with all sorts of pastel beads linked together. I began bending and looping wire through each bead and connecting them all until it was long enough to wear doubled up.
I used mostly faceted beads, mainly semi-precious stones or Czech glass. Love those yummy colors. The opaque lavender is especially pretty I think, but together it looks like one big candy necklace, don't you think?


Beeeeeauuuutiful!!! My goodness!!! So so sweet!! ..as always...perfect!!!
Hope you guys are keeping warm!! We are frozen here on the Jersey Shore!!! Brrrrrr

Love to you.

It does, like a string of sweeties. I've been making my own jewellery lately too. Reusing broken or unworn necklaces and turning into something new. It's very addictive isn't it?! Have to say I'm enjoying it very much. Not enjoying the appalling state of my nails quite as much though!
