So the house is really quiet this morning and I have been wanting to start on jewelry making so here I go. I made a necklace. Took me about an hour and a half. I still need to practice wire wrapping for sure. That's trickier than it looks.

Take a look and tell me what you think please. Really pick it apart. hahaha Usually my mom and my kids get this critiquing job, but since they aren't here, I'm hoping you gals won't mind filling in for them.

I don't know much about jewelry, but I will say that is a lovely necklace.

Thank you! But I can't take credit for the design. I saw something kinda similar in a bead magazine. Of course you can never find what they use in those magazines, so I just walked the aisles of Jo-Ann's and Michael's till the beads started talking to me. That's the same way I pick out flowers for arranging.
