Before I got into wire wrapping and then bead embroidery, I bought a lot of beads. Decided that I ought to use them. I like all kinds of necklaces, so…. Here is a very simple one.

Very cool, Michelle! I love how the big beads reflect light and I love their shape as well. Dawn

Good for you! And a beautiful start too! I like that you used dark beads with the big ones to make them shine even more. I'm looking forward to seeing more from your stash.

Thanks ladies! I bet I’ve had those big beads for 5 years. Early on, I approached beads much like I do fabric: “ooh pretty!” with no thought of what I’m going to do with it. LOL!

I don't shop as often either, mostly cuz I don't have the room to store anymore beads. I will not be able to use all my beads in this lifetime! Dawn

Dawn, I'm aftaid this is what will happen to me. I have too many beads and stones which I collected through the years, some of them rather valuable. I hope whoever gets them after I leave the world will know what to do with them (and not curse me instead)
