I really wasn’t sure if the bronze would go with the gun metal plated glass beads, but I really love this combo! You’ll only need one strand/packet of each item on the materials list – you could even make a matching bracelet. The front section is simply strung on tigertail using a clamshell at either end. Then I’ve attached in to about 50cm of chain. You may wish to add a clasp if you’d like to make it shorter – this necklace is about 90cm so you can slip it over your head.
