I had a few larger beads and I did not know what to use them for (my necklaces are usually more delicate). One day the inspiration came in a store catalog–the idea of combining one strand of large beads and six strands of small beads. It is wearable top side down or up. It can even be wrapped around the neck twice. I had a lot of fun making it!
It is 26″ long.
Here are the materials I used: glass seed beads, turquoise chips, composite beads, Bali findings, Venice glass beads, and a toggle clasp.
