Last week I managed to design and make a few pieces for my new collection. Here's a preview!
For those who love Y necklaces, here's one for you! About 17-inches and a spiral rope of 4mm Czech fire polished beads pulled together by a pearl flower clasp.
Finally, last one for today is this lovely 16-inch necklace which hugs the base of the neck comfortably and has an attention seeking drop! Will look really nice for day or evening wear.
One of my favourites (which took forever to make!) is a 16-inch choker necklace. I used purple, pink and green to create this floral garden effect. For the centre I used 8mm Swarovski pearls in powder rose. Surrounding the pearls are size 11 and 15 Japanese glass seed beads and Czech 3mm fire polished beads. The clasp is "hidden" in that you can't tell it from the rest of the pearls!
Here's the same necklace using 10mm Swarovski pearls, which makes it a little more chunky.
I can make these necklaces longer and using larger pearls for those who love bigger necklaces. However, from my experimentation, 8mm are the smallest I can go without compromising the floral design. This style will also work well as a collar necklace (which is shorter than the choker and hugs the neck like a Victorian style necklace).
Using the same pearl flowers, I have made ear-rings in any colour imaginable and will work on bracelets this week.

This must be my ultimate favourite!
Until my next post, have a great week ahead!
