Winter Wonderland - Gorgeous Beadwoven Fringe Necklace With Swarovski Crystals




This gorgeous beadwoven necklace was crafted with Toho Japanese seed beads which is a brand of top quality seed beads due to their consistency in size, shape and color. The band of this necklace is made with Toho seed beads in Silver Lined Crystal and the fringe is made with Toho's in the color of Cornflower AB. The fringe is accented beautifully with shimmering Swarovski crystal bicones in "Crystal Silver Shade" and "Light Sapphire". For the clasp I used a woven ball and loop clasp made from matching seed beads and Swarovski crystals. This gives the necklace a more uniform appearance which I love. This piece reminds me of Winter, so in the spirit of the holidays, I named this necklace "Winter Wonderland".
