Pearls (fresh-water, I think), gold twisted beads, gold glass pearls, gold cathedral beads.
Gold and clear cultured sea glass, brass starfish and toggle clasp.
Unfortunately, I did a good/bad thing. In order to not lose the beads, I put them in a safe place as I received them back in December and was not ready to work on the projects. The blog hop kinda of slipped my mind and other challenges came to the front. When it was getting close to time for the reveal, I was scrambling to find my "safely put away" beads. I searched for two weeks and finally found them last week.
I was able to get three pieces partially constructed and hope to finish them tomorrow and post the finished pieces on Monday evening, so be sure to come back and see the finished pieces.
I used one size of the glass pearls and the twisted beads in the outer strand and another size of glass pearls and the cathedral beads for the inner strand.
I used the cultured sea glass to create the necklace below. I added some brass jump rings as spacers.

I used left over cultured sea glass for earrings along with the brass starfish.
