Re-making a necklace..............


Quite a few years ago I was bought this lovely Pilgrim necklace as a leaving present from work and I loved it, but sadly over the years the acrylic beads have scratched and become dull, so I decided to buy some replacement beads and try and re-make it - this is the result.......


I managed to keep the lovely green beads and one or two of the beads that were crystal, but I replaced everything else with crystal/quartz/glass beads and I'm quite pleased with the result.  The colours are much more vibrant than the acrylic beads and when the light shines on them they look beautiful.


Even managed to find a nice little dragon fly to replace the enamelled piece that had scratched.
