Flower power
by Phoenix on 11/28/20
About this design:
I wanted to use the Hamsas in a necklace and thought they blended well with the hibiscus flower and black jet gemstones. Usually the focal is the biggest feature, but since it's choker size, it seems to balance out when it's being worn.
Components:
Jet gemstones (6mm and 8mm), Czech hibiscus flower, pink rice beads and orchid colored hamsa.Read the comments (or add your own)
