The Green Lacy Necklace is my own design. The necklace is made from small green charlotte beads (size 13). The charlotte beads are faceted on one side so the necklace shimmers as it moves. I made this for a friend whose birthday is in May. There is also a matching bracelet and earrings. |

The Man's Hemlyke Necklace is my own design. It is made from Hemalyke (not Hematite). Hemalyke is a man made material that has the same composition as Hematite. The rattle pendant was only available in Hemalyke, so I made everything in Hemalyke. The cost would be more if the real Hematite stones were used. |

The Hummingbird Necklace is from a kit sold by Dragon. (dragonfay.com). I had a lot of fun making it, and I get a lot of compliments when I wear it. |
