Blue Skies Gemstone Choker
About this design:
I used these great Brazil Sodalite thin pillows from Lima Beads and added some sterling silver hexagon spacers and light blue crystal bicones to create this simple and sparkling choker necklace. This design reflects the beautiful colors of a blue sky with fluffy white clouds, the air so clean it shines and sparkles.
Components:
Brazil Sodalite thin pillows, sterling silver hexagon spacer beads, crystal bicones.Additional Images:
