Entry Name:  Christmas Eve Necklace
Technique:  peyote, netting, coral, right angle weave stitches, embroidery
Materials:  Toho seed beads 11/0, Delica seed beads 11/0 and 15/0; vintage Italian bugle beads size 2, Swarovski crystals, pearls size 3 and 5, ribbons
Description:  I made the base of the necklace using netting stitch of my own design, I used for that vintage Italian bugle beads and seed beads. All elements were made separately: golden three-dimensional flowers with red petals in the center, and golden fringes with red beads and Swarovski crystals. I decided not to create a special clasp for the necklace and I used two ribbons of matching gold and red colors to add some more festive accent.
