New Creation

I stumbled across some Amethyst Pear-shaped beads yesterday that I just had to have.  Once I got home, I almost immediately went to work on my latest creation.
What really caught my eye is the diagonal stripe across the largest of the pear-shaped beads.  The variations in the shades of purple in these amethysts also worked well, because it allowed me to use both the pale amethysts as well as the darker amethysts that I have in my jewelry-making collection
 of beads. 

I wanted to use the five pear-shaped beads together, so I created a kind of pendant with them.  The remainder of the necklace is made with the amethysts I mentioned above, glass pearls and decorative silvertone metal beads. 

This turned out to be one of my favorite pieces.  I hope you like it, too.  If you want more information about this creation, you can find it at my Etsy shop at Amethyst Pendant Necklace.

Making progress on the 100 followers, but it may take a while to get there.  Still,  I won't forget about the giveaway. 

Hope you have a great evening!  Take care & God Bless!

Update - This necklace sold shortly after it was added to my shop!  YeeHaa!  Still please stop by my shop when you get a chance to see what else I have.  Thanks!
