For my birthday, at the beginning of the month, I received a present of several strands of beads from my mother-in-law. I love beading and jewelry making, so this was a wonderful present!
This first necklace that I made is my favorite! It is made of white howlite elephant beads and agate round beads. I love the muted look, and of course, elephants are my favorite animal!
Next, is a pretty simple green bead necklace. When I saw these beads, I fell absolutely in love! I could see myself pairing this necklace with quite a few different outfits!
Last, I made this tear drop necklace. I like the variation of blue and teal, and the shorter length. I improvised and used some fastenings from another necklace to complete this one.
Overall, I am pleased with my work! I have some more beads that I will use for projects in the future!
