Egyptian Style Turquoise Bib Necklace

I had these bronze dangles on my work desk for months and really liked them but wasn’t sure what to do with them. Then I was flipping through a book on vintage costume jewelry and I instantly knew what I wanted to do.
First I tried the ultramarine glass beads with the dangles and loved the combination. Then I added the matte metallic seed beads and thought they worked so well together. So I made loads of the dangles with eye pins and simple loops, attached them to a chunky bronze chain and realized it looked like something Cleopatra would wear. Now I want to make lots of them.
