I made these necklaces from beads I had purchased a couple of years ago. My jewelry making ability has improved over the years. My advice to anyone starting out is to have patience. It takes some time to learn different things, such as, "crimping" the clasp on. Crimping is one of those things which take awhile but once you finally "get it" you get it. I found the hardest part to be making sure the elastic or wire is in the correct place so it crimps flat. There are still times I need to redo the crimp. I have to remember to have patience with myself also. There is no right or wrong way to do it, everyone has to find their own way which is comfortable to them.
I have since taken most of my earlier pieces apart and reused the beads for other projects or I would post some of them here. If I do find one I will include a picture in a future blog post. For now I want to post the pictures of the necklaces I have made. Hope everyone enjoys them. As always they are available on eBay at the link .Enjoy 'window' shopping.
