Trend Swatch
Collar-Style Necklace with Seed Beads, Swarovski Crystals and Gemstone Cabochons and Beads

This leopard can't change her spots, either--but you won't mind too much when you see what happens! Leopardskin jasper cabochons, in their range of natural colors, provide the dark saturated gold of Tassel. The light mauve of Lamppost comes from sparkling Swarovski crystal rhinestones in crystal lilac shadow, while amethyst cabochons and Miyuki seed beads display the rich purple of Nightfall.

By: Erika Knight

Retail Price: $25.63
Your Price: $ 5.92
 
Erika Knight applies her unique flair for color, texture and design within crafts to beading, to present a must-have collection of 25 jewelry projects. Divided into three themes--Natural (driftwood, pebbles, shells and hemp twine or leather thong for relaxed, easy-wear simplicity), Playful (vibrant color with unusual textures, such as crochet and felt) and Vintage (antique glass, silver and mother-of-pearl to create treasured heirlooms)--the designs all share Erika's innate sense of style. This simple introduction to beads and buttons presents individual ideas on how to make show-stopping pieces. However, the projects are all unashamedly simple and easy to make.
