The colors of a single bead can inspire your entire design. Cynthia loved the Czech glass flowers in this necklace and wanted to bring out the dark bronze finish of each one by pairing it with Velvet Brown pearls. Beads from an Artbeads Designer Blend make the perfect accent. You can see more ideas featuring fun pieces in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Cut a length of jewelry wire approximately 20 inches long. Slide a TierraCast 2x2mm brass oxide brass crimp tube onto the end of the wire, followed by half of the TierraCast brass oxide pewter heirloom clasp set. Go back through the crimp tube and crimp in place. Hide the crimp with a 3mm antique brass crimp cover.

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!
