Charms of Autumn
About this design:
I did a series of necklace earrings sets that I call charm necklaces. I was on a kick of attaching charms, crystals, or pearls along the strands. I add a link between wraps to give the necklaces more movement so I had those gaps to fill. :)
Components:
Green Opal, BC jade (LB), olive Swarovski crystals, green freshwater pearls, copper leaf charms (LB), copper wire and toggle.Additional Images:

puppychick labratbecky says:You ladies are all too kind! Thanks! I sell at a show coming up in November. So far that and word of mouth and by request, mainly because I don’t have much time to make things. I am gearing up to branch out but I am not quite ready to hit the big time.
