Winter necklace

Let me introduce another lovely necklace I made. For this necklace I chose winter colors. Deep blue and the silver reveals the true nature of winter. The stone in the middle (cabochon) makes a perfect contrast with blue and silver. The color choice was unexpected for me, but I found it very attractive. The technique of beading around the cabochon is quite simple. The beaded rope can me made easily too. At the moment I am working on a short "how to", to introduce you the basic steps. Please follow my blog, if you do not want to skip it.

  1. The stone reminds me of the sun,which makes this a fabulous representation of the Winter Solstice - this would make beautiful Yule jewelry!

  2. Thank you Kai. I've never thought about such an image. But you are right. The red (orange) stone reminds the Sun. Could you write more about Yule? As far as I understand it is a celebration of winter solstice in Northern European countries?
