I started with the flourite rounds and added peach-lined crackle beads with black seed beads as spacers. |
Here is Beti's handmade clasp. |
I added adventurine lentil beads and another shape for the peach-lined crackle beads. |
The final design! |
I still have another set of beads to be made up so look below.
Beti's brass hook 'n eye clasp |
The complete set! |
