This necklace has a variety of Swarovski gold & cream pearls, siam and topaz crystals and a vintage pendant. I attached the wire to the pendant, then added a pearl and started twisting the wire. I did that for each pearl. When I got to the length I wanted, I started wrapping the wire around the beads going back down to the pendant for extra hold. I added siam crystals to give the necklace a little pop.
I started designing again when I had to stay home to take care of my mom who had Parkinson's. I love using Swarovski pearls, crystals and pendants with wire. When the first few pieces are together, if I can't feel it's right take it apart. I just let my fingers do the work. I feel when it's right. I love what I do and it's a way I can give back to Hospice. They were a big help to me the last year of my mom's life.
