Ok, so I normally don't do anything but the pendants, and usually dont work with beads, but I am proud of this one.....24" chain is covered in sterling silver, and black agate beads, focal is wrapped in sterling silver...  I think the black, and sterling......just "go" together....what do you think? Thanks for lookin! Marie |

Marie, that's a really pretty necklace! I agree - black and silver do compliment each other.
What did you use for the basis of the chain?

Tom- Thanks! I used a 24 inch silver chain.....took the ends off of it, and starting putting everything together, then put the ends and such back on.

Marie!
I just discovered beading and now have everything dripping with crystals, LOL. This is very pretty! Beading is another addiction to spend way too much money on! I too always like sterling and black!

You did a great job on this. I like how you matched the beads with the pendant and you're right, that black goes with the silver beautifully. Another great creation!

Thanks everyone! I am super proud of this one....I love the agate beads, found those somewhere, came with 3 stones and the smaller agate beads.....but pretty. This piece is pretty heavy, but is very nice...as usual I could not capture the real beauty with the photo...but I just love the way it turned out.
Thanks again...you guys always make my day!
Marie

Marie, that has to be one of the most striking neclaces that I have seen. If that isn't in your personal collection with a number one spot, it will be for whoever ends up with it.

Everything about it is Beautiful! The photo makes the square beads look like chocolates. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM chocolate.
Yes Bejewelme, beading is very addicting and very expensive to get into. Almost as much as wrapping. LOL
