Floral Drop Necklace
This
necklace uses some of castings in a very unique way, these castings
are to be strung the long way, many wouldn't think of putting
them into a necklace form, but they actually work wonderfully
as you can see!
The
castings are a floral design in aqua with antique silver metal,
we have combined these with some jet floral castings to give this
necklace a dramatic affect.
The
entire necklace is strung on long head pins, this is probably
one of the easiest methods to use with castings and gives the
necklace great flexibility! Each section strung on one headpin
had swarvoski crystals in jet, sterling silver filler cast beads
and at the end of the headpin we made a loop, to attach to the
end of the next group of castings.
The
entire drop section is one long headpin as shown, with loops at
each end to start off the necklace. Here at the attachment area,
see image above, we only used one of the loops on the 2 hole slider
bead to allow for the necklace to lay flat when strung up.
This
is quite a gorgeous design and is very simple to make!
