This necklace is a showstopper. The central focal is shaped like a handheld mirror. The surreal cabochon of a woman with a castle on her head was selected in anticipation of European travel. Since the pastures near castles frequently house sheep, I turned that thought on its head by adding a sheep to the bezel. Bead embroidery pairs well with freeform beading for a more organic look that might not be achieved with other forms of beading. If you have some bead embroidery experience but haven't yet combined it with freeform, try this beginner-friendly project. Focal elements may be bezeled at home in advance (or use the Rockin’ Bezel sclass to make these bezels), then assembled in class with freeform peyote and a spiral peyote neckband. This project will get you thinking like a designer.
Stones and similar elements from your stash in the general green color scheme so you have design options, white gel pen, straight and curved sharp scissors, ruler/tape measure, beading awl, beading mat, E6000 glue, 6# smoke FireLine or thread of your choice, size 10 and 12 beading needles, personal task light and magnification (if needed).
