Here are the supplies I chose for this necklace and earrings set
I adapted the design from a beading magazine using fluorite, Chinese unakite, Feldspar, and tiny tourmaline gemstone beads.
For the necklace, attach 2 pieces of chain to a toggle clasp (my signature clasp).
Then, add the beads to a wire and wrap the ends into a chain link. Easy peasy.
The earrings are what inspired me to make this design:
Attach 2 pieces of chain to a (fishhook) earwire. String beads onto a wire (they match the necklace) and wrap the ends to the 2 chain links.
Here’s the Gemstone necklace and earrings set for sale in my Etsy shop
I like the earthy tones of this jewelry set and the chance to use my fluorite and unakite gemstones.
What do you think?
