The crystals featured in this necklace inspired Cynthia to mix metal finishes. Crystal Rainbow Dark is an oil slick of color that combines green, brassy gold, black, and purple with a metallic shine. Cynthia pulled all of those colors out with matte black chain, a patina embellishment, Scarabaeus Green pearls, and brass spacers. You can see more ideas for mixing metals in your jewelry designs in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Glue the small brass wing embellishments onto the large brass floral wreath embellishment with patina using 5-minute epoxy. While the adhesive is still workable, glue the brass Persian chandelier pendant on top of the wings. Adjust the wings so they are just right under the Persian chandelier. Then, glue the 12mm Rivoli in Crystal Rainbow Dark into the center of the Persian chandelier. Allow to dry.
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!
