About this design:
I was in Montana last month and my boyfriend and I hit Billings' two bead stores... I incorporated his help and he picked out this beautiful strand of pearls - they are so dark green, they appear black... I used black seed beads to separate them, and he picked out the pendant...
Components:
FWP, Obsidian pendant, black glass seed beadsRead the comments (or add your own)

KittyMom Linda says:Beautiful. Isn’t it nice when our significant others are into helping us? My husband is responsible for some of my better finds. I get stuck in one section of the shop and he travels through faster, thus finding the good stuff first. This is gorgeous with the pearls. Unexpected pleasure, I think.
