Necklaces: a whole new world!

I just realized that I can, ought and shall make necklaces! How about that? It started a while ago when I realized that I can, ought and shall make spacers. Once you make enough of those it's only natural to start think about stringing them together and hanging them around your necklace. At least that's what happened for me. This is a new version of my first necklace, the rainbow fade spacer necklace:
...and of course a matching bracelet:
Then I discovered my love for clear glass next to enameled rainbow spacers... it's so snappy:
And I had a lot of clear spacers so I made this extra long necklace (46") that's oh so fun to twirl around in:
I plan on making several necklaces from a few of my bead series. To start, a Star Draft necklace:
Most recently I found that the best thing to do with these cute little off mandrel beads I love to make is to pile them into what turns into a pretty funky and yet elegant necklace:
More to come, more to come. It turns out that making necklaces is kind of fun! If you want to see more pictures (or purchase!) click here! Like the clasps?? I have a rainbow selection of glass toggle clasps here. Thanks!
