This was fun and a challenge to make since I was not as skilled in pearl technique usage 12 years ago....but I love this first necklace made and have since gone on to make many that were sold - the idea came from a clothing cataloge being flipped through in a doctors office that I though I glimpse enough to do but later discovered the catalog at a friends house and the piece I made was nothing like what I orginally thought I saw. That happens to me alot...maybe will post a pair of earrings I thought I saw Oprah wearing but later up close they were nothing like what I made......lol
