Coral Collar Creation: My First Jewelry Challenge

After purchasing a new summer outfit, I realized that I didn’t have jewelry to match. While visiting a craft store, I saw a Glass Bead Box containing beautiful beads of matching colors, and my jewelry making journey had begun.

After hours of searching the Internet, a necklace based on the Coral technique caught my eye. For my first jewelry project, I chose to include Bugle Seed Beads, too.

It wasn’t an easy creation, but in the end I have a perfect necklace and earrings set to match my wearing apparel. I’ve received many complements while wearing it.
