This was the case with this pearl necklace. I made the turquoise and copper pearl bracelet using 6mm pearls a while back and "filled" my beaded netting. I experimented using different size pearls to create a beaded bead. And voila... it work out! YEAH!
Then both beads sit side by side on my beading mat until I was struck with inspiration lightening again. Which I was (side note: that's why my hair is curly). So I finished this piece with a double strand of pearls in the front with the largest centering the strands and graduating to smaller pearls at the edges.
I finished the necklace with single strands of pearls and a toggle clasp. Perfect for the classic romantic bride. If you are a bride and this is your dream necklace e-mail me designsbydawnmd@gmail.com. It is for sale and I'd be happy to make matching earrings. Pearl Bridal Jewelry is a classic design, by adding crystals or beaded beads it's the perfect blend of traditional with contemporary.
Hope your day is filled with love!

Well, while I really really really dig your necklace...I can't go so far as to say it makes me wanna get married again.
That being said, I'd rock that baby anywhere and everywhere. Love!

Now those are pearls I would have worn on my wedding day, almost 4 years ago!
Gorgeous Dawn...your beaded beads add a very special touch to the pearls! I love pearls...all colors, all designs.
