String Me Along

This is a very exciting day for Beaded Expressions by Marla--I just listed my first piece of jewelry for sale in my Etsy Shop! The listing process was so easy, I listed two pieces. I know...living on the wild side today.

Most of my jewelry is very time consuming to make and any given piece can take hours--even days--to complete, mostly because of the small beads and detailed stitches I use in my design and execution. However, every now and then I enjoy making simple strung necklaces, not only for the instant gratification of completing a piece in a few hours or less, but for the classic, elegant statement the finished pieces make. 

Using just a few supplies from my bead collection, I completed two pearl necklaces.

Each necklace includes freshwater pearls, Swarovski cyrstals, Tibetan beads and antiqued silver clasps.

Let it Bead,
