LizzCreations says:lol great, i really don’t mind actually i feel flattered that you want to create it too, i would luv to see your’s when u make it, Christalle B. I used 10mm ecru size pearls and 10mm faceted cloudy peridot glass, for the pendant i used a 12mm (slightly bigger) white pearl and the 2 glass flower beads and 3 briolettes with some link chain.
