Chunky Pink Bib Necklace

I love designing these multi-strand “beautiful mess” bibs!! This head-turning assemblage necklace began with combining a vintage chunky pink choker from 1950’s Japan and a vintage gold and rhinestone Trifari necklace.

For the third layer, I hand beaded (new) raspberry jade roundels and (new) glass pearls along with a few lengths of vintage pearls. For the collage pendant, I layered a tiny gold pin with a pink rhinestone center, rhinestone earrings and aluminum rose buds onto an hot pink oval rhinestone pin.

I kept the original clasp of the Japan pink choker but added a brass extender chain for extra length if desired.

Vintage soft pink pearls were woven through the entire necklace for a tangled effect.
