About this design:
I have made some Silver Art clay charms and mixed them with different colored Tagua Nut Chips and matching stones and coral beads. The blue one is so nice to jeans, but you can make it in your favorite color, of course!
Components:
Blue Sodalite, Red Corals, Purple Agate, Tiny Hill Tribe Silver beads, Tagua Nut Potato Chips, Sterling jumprings and lobster clasps.Read the comments (or add your own)
