Like the mist slowly rising from the water on a crisp winter morning, this quiet necklace takes its time revealing the beauty it holds. The mystic blue pendant draws in the eyes while the smoky silver additions surround it with calming whispers.
We created a seed bead bezel around the 39x28mm fancy oval in Montana Sapphire by creating a two bead backstitch. Use 5mm round pearls in Petrol for the first row around the stone, then a row of TOHO 11/0 bead rounds in metallic dark copper. Then, create two more rows using TOHO 11/0 bead rounds in dichroic-lined aqua blue rainbow. Finish the bezel with a beaded edge using the brick technique using metallic dark copper TOHOs.

Twist the midnight blue and light blue with copper metallic edges hand-dyed silk ribbon and 5.5mm antique silver-plated large snake chain together. Attach one end from each material to a single 19 gauge sterling silver 4.9x7.6mm oval jump ring. Use one 4x4mm sterling silver crimp tube to secure the ribbon end. Do this for the other side.
Thread one beading needle with approximately an arm's length of thread and tie a knot at the end. Bring the needle in between the sunshine edge and the nearest row of aqua blue rainbow TOHOs. Pull the needle through to hide the knot. We will refer to the beads in the copper color as edge beads and the row of aqua blue seed beads as the outer row.
Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
