Long necklaces are a great hijab-friendly accessory. And as I'm sure you could tell from my previously-posted jewelry board, I have a nice collection. The only problem is sometimes a girl just gets bored matching metals without color. So, armed with a tutorial I headed to Michael's to get supplies! ...And then the only beads that met my apparently high standards were not colorful, but white. Alas. However! I lovelovelove the necklace, and I'm so glad I bought the beads. Here is the finished product and the awesome shalwar kameez I ended up wearing it with!
The (silver-plated) chain length is 24" and the "pendant" is ~2.5" from the top-most jump ring to the bottom of the cluster.
Y'all remember the dangle earrings I made earlier this year? At work it came up that one of my budding hobbies is beading and jewelry, so I brought them in to show (off). And someone bought them! And then told me she got tons of compliments when she wore them over the weekend!! O.O <-- This has been me for the past few days.... It's gotten me considering, especially at Char's encouragement, that I could sell handmade jewelry on purpose instead of by accident.
And quickly. After my completely foolishness in bringing absolutely nothing in my class color to Reunion, I had to *scramble*. This is the result A bright yellow bow on a headband! I know. I look adorable. ( : Plus some others I made for another fun, hijab-friendly accessory. Char insists I should sell both jewelry and headbands. Thoughts?
