I love the first necklace!

They are fab! I especially like the 2nd necklace. It's inspiring me to think of doing a Christmas star decoration in a similar way. I also really like the turquoise coloured beads you have used. Really good stuff!

Wet blanket again....................the crimp before and after the crystal will chip the crystal over time. Try and use a spacer or a seed bead between crimp and crystal.:)

On the necklace? Ta for the tip. No worries about speaking up lol. Thats why i am here :D

Im still waiting for my crimper. Now that i have seen crimps done without squishing them, they look so much better!

I made the things above (apart from first thing) at a jewellery makig afternoon. It was for beginners and tbh, although it was fun, i felt like i needed a step up from that. She didnt tell me about crimps and crystals needing to be seperate etc!

I like the design of the feather necklace but if the silver clasp is on it I think it's a bit heavy. I think just a simple clasp would be enough for the necklaces with maybe a short extender chain. The fancy clasps are better suited to a bracelet I feel, where they can be seen.:D

I love the wraped pendant. :D
