Snow Queen Necklace
by Andrea at Lima on 10/17/19
About this design:
I love being drenched in shimmer for the holidays. I always purchase a new top and wear something like this to dress it up. I think it lays best from just below the clavicle or wear it long.
What you’ll need: (buy products below)
You will need a druzy link, rock crystal points, 22 gauge wire, apatite nuggets, and 4ft crystal chain. You could make earrings or a bracelet out of any left over beads:) I added a rock crystal focal set as an option instead of the graduated strand on the product list.

Moogie says:I like this design idea because it combines several components together that I was having a hard time thinking how to use them. I especially like the addition of the little apatite drops for a burst of icy color.

dolllady aka Pam says:This is gorgeous to wear year round! It would be cooling in the summer and warming in the winter with the apatite chips. Love it!

J Stowers says:Your design is striking in many ways. I especially like your use of the crystals and their tie-in with the name for your piece. But the colored beads and druzy link — though they fit the art of your piece they clashed with its theme. I associate the Snow Queen with mirrors and broken mirror slivers [not that I would use mirror slivers directly in any piece intended for wear!] and perhaps the Moon or the blue glow in Laprodite. Your design is haunting and very beautiful.

Little Round Chick says:Marvelous icy combination with lots of bling. Definitely perfect for a party.
